O2I Helped a US-based Scaffolding Giant with MTO Detailing from GFC Drawings

Case Study on MTO Detailing for Scaffolding Giant in US

Outsource2india supported a US-based scaffolding giant with MTO detailing consisting of an accurate and exhaustive list of materials required for the project with the help of good GFC drawings.

The Client

The client is one of the pioneers in the field of Environmental Health and Safety (EHS). Considering safety as a driving factor for productivity and efficiency, they provide energy and infrastructure services over 100 locations in the U.S. and Canada. They deliver efficient and high-end solutions for Access & Scaffolding, Insulation & Fireproofing, and Surface Preparation & Coatings. Serving petrochemical, power, oil and gas, refining, manufacturing, marine, transportation, and commercial construction industries, the client also provides industrial services as well as equipment for lease, rental, or purchase.

Requirements and Challenges

Larger construction projects involve multiple levels of drawings for materials and other requirements. The client is a major energy and infrastructure service provider and needed help in cutting down the cost and time associated with Material Take-off (MTO) detailing part with the help of good for construction (GFC) drawings. The process was quite cumbersome and expensive to involve civil engineers to calculate the requirements on a regular basis. Also, the work needed to be delivered within a stringent timeline while meeting global drawing standards to take out the material requirement.

Outsource2india's Solution

Co-ordinated GFC drawings are complicated pieces of information based on which material procurement tender can be requested. Outsource2india helped the client in getting accurate and exhaustive lists of materials from the drawings in a specified format to aid the generation of the Bill of Quantity. The data assimilation allowed the procurement teams to make the purchase or align resources accordingly. Outsourcing the MTO aspect has a direct impact on the client in terms of cost and time savings. We have been providing service to the client for over 4 years with minimal escalations. The team consists of about 6+ mechanical engineers (with additional resources deployment based on increased workload).

The Benefits

At Outsource2india, we hire efficient and dedicated resources to provide seamless support to our clients around the globe, meeting all required time zones. We provide high-quality MTO services at an affordable rate.

Some of the major benefits included -

No lag in productivity
