In this week’s episode Sam Lemon, Construction Technology Lead at MJ Church Ltd, talks to us about a small thing he’s done that has made huge efficiency gains: Color-coding machine control models so that operators can read them and use them easily.
Sam spends most of his time translating data to ensure that his fleet of machine control systems have the information they need for operators to operate at peak efficiency and honestly, he’s hoping that one day technology will take over his job.
Sam shares the difference it makes on the people running his projects when they understand the big picture of a project and how technology has helped them see where they fit in the project.
