Business Challenges
G&P Infra Sdn Bhd was looking to improve their project design and delivery strategy Ir. Loh Woei Chung, Senior Director of G&P Infrastructure, Explains;
“Reviewing and deciding on the best solutions to meet the clients brief, especially their budget, whilst also fulfilling the Architect’s design intent with innovative solutions which also meet safe design practices.
Professional Integrity and obligations as a practicing engineer are especially important to us.”
Solutions
We had experience using PB Orion before and like the platform, ProtaStructure significantly improved upon this. ProtaStructure also allows us to be more productive and efficient, and Prota provides a very good support service. From our own experience in the past, we were also very confident in ProtaStructure for high-rise building design, which is a large part of our business.
ProtaStructure is unique in being an end to end design and detailing solution, so we can not replace any similar tools with it.
Around 5 to 6 engineers regularly use the 3 licenses of ProtaStructure. During the “Peak” season we need to carefully manage the usage time as it’s extremely popular.
ProtaStructure has significantly reduced design errors during information transfer (between analysis, design, and detailing) and has helped expedite work with its modeling and design speed. ProtaStructure is a total solution.
We have saved time and resources as fewer engineers are required to be allocated to complete a job. It’s especially useful during preliminary stages for concept design when perhaps we have yet to be engaged, we can minimize time here while also being highly productive.
Take advantage of the annual maintenance service as this includes all the new updates and support with ProtaStructure. That said, the software is already at a well-developed level and engineers now seldom call for technical support as they are very conversant with the technology. Good job Prota, We have peace of mind in using your software!
We have improved around 30% of our overall productivity and time efficiency compared with life before ProtaStructure.
