Challenges Faced by Construction/Interior Design Firms

Interior design projects involve a multitude of intricate tasks, materials, and personnel. Traditionally, managing these projects relied on spreadsheets or siloed software solutions, leading to:

• Inefficient Task Management: Difficulty in creating and tracking a hierarchical structure of main tasks and subtasks within a project.
• Inaccurate BOQ Control: Challenges in maintaining precise control over material allocation and stock levels, potentially leading to overspending or material shortages.
• Limited Collaboration: Communication gaps between project managers, designers, and on-site personnel.
• Manual Processes: Time-consuming manual data entry and progress tracking.
