TECHNICAL SCOPE

What We Inspect & Capture

Manage construction risk, verify subcontractor milestones, and provide indisputable progress records for investors, clients, and project directors. EntireFM provides weekly, fortnightly, or monthly drone flights utilizing precise repeatable camera waypoints for exact chronological comparison.

TIME-SERIES CAPTURE

Repeat Waypoint Photography

Automated GPS-locked flight paths ensuring exact frame-matched photography across every construction phase.

PLAN COMPARISON

Periodic Orthomosaic Overlays

Layering current site orthomosaics directly over architectural masterplans and previous monthly baselines.

EARTHWORKS

Groundworks & Earthworks Tracking

Monitoring excavation progress, foundation pours, drainage installation, and material movements.

GOVERNANCE

Dispute Mitigation & Handover Proof

Indisputable timestamped visual archives protecting main contractors and developers against delay claims.

COMMERCIAL SCENARIOS

Typical Facilities Management Applications

Real-world operational use cases where aerial drone surveys deliver maximum safety and commercial efficiency.

Milestone Progress Verification

Weekly/monthly aerial records verifying groundworks, steel framing, and cladding milestones.

Subcontractor Delivery Proof

Timestamped photographic proof documenting work completion before invoice signoff.

Investor & Stakeholder Updates

High-resolution time-lapse photography and 4K video reels for development board meetings.

Dispute & Delay Claim Protection

Indisputable visual history protecting main contractors and developers against delay claims.

DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA

What We Look For

Common structural defects, waterproofing failures, and performance anomalies isolated during survey analysis.

Urgent Priority

Milestone Schedule Variance

Visual Indicator: Lag between planned BIM timeline and actual on-site structural erection

Urgent Priority

Site Logistics & Storage Congestion

Visual Indicator: Material stockpile encroachment blocking emergency fire tender access

Critical Priority

Perimeter Hoarding Compromise

Visual Indicator: Boundary breaches, fallen wind mesh, and unsecured site access gates
