Newest enhancements to InEight’s construction project management platform bring better forecasting accuracy, improved field collaboration, and more visibility and control over subcontractor performance.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — InEight Inc., a global leader in construction capital project management software, has announced its latest suite of software innovations, which are designed to increase forecasting accuracy, field productivity, and subcontractor management.

These latest updates provide contractors with a higher level of forecasting accuracy based on up-to-date project progress, including subcontractor activity. This allows for quick reactions to financial and productivity challenges, providing greater confidence to project owners.

Uncertain economic conditions and disruptions in the construction supply chain are putting increased pressure on contractors and owner/operators to produce accurate project forecasts. InEight is building on its already strong legacy in cost forecasting with significant new capabilities in the areas of time-phased forecasting, custom forecasting methods, and resource-based forecasts.

In addition to out-of-the-box forecast methods, InEight users can now configure the best equations to automate forecast calculations for the different types of work through different stages of completion. “There is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to forecasting, even within a single project,” says John Upton, Director Project Cost Management at InEight. “InEight helps contractors and owners better capture field data and measure progress,”

The platform enhancements also drive increased productivity through more efficient collaboration between the office and the field. Scope and quantities, productivity goals, and more are easily communicated in daily digital plans to field crews and subcontractors. Controlled transparency allows teams to identify and troubleshoot challenges. This leads to a higher level of profitability potential.

Additionally, InEight made it easier to get full visibility into subcontractor costs. With line of sight to both committed and uncommitted costs, users can compare the variance between the planned cost and the actual costs.

“Our goal is to connect scope, cost, and schedule on a single platform, giving project stakeholders the ability to collaborate effectively and deliver projects with predictable results,” comments Brad Barth, Chief Product Officer at InEight.

Next-generation SaaS technology will enable study sponsors and CROs to better design, plan, and monitor clinical trials, from feasibility to start-up through enrollment

NEW YORK, Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — At the Summit for Clinical Ops Executives (SCOPE) Feb. 6-9 in Orlando, Citeline will reveal details of its soon-to-be-released clinical feasibility workflow solution. The new technology leverages insights from Citeline’s industry-leading clinical trial benchmark data and real-world patient data with AI/ML technology to improve accuracy and predictability in progressively complex and accelerated clinical trial programs.

“Citeline is on an exciting transformational journey as a data intelligence and predictive clinical trial workflow solution provider,” said Alexandra Charge, Global Head of Clinical Planning and Patient Engagement & Recruitment. “The feasibility and clinical trial recruitment challenge is complex and ever present. Modernizing feasibility with AI and data science, unlocking the power of client data together with Citeline’s trusted industry-leading intelligence and real-world data, all enabled within a smart workflow, is key to addressing these complexities.”

The next-generation solution will help study leaders address ever-increasing complexity in enrollment projections, ensure success in selecting high-enrolling sites to accelerate timelines, and quickly identify and mitigate risks. It incorporates insights from Citeline’s industry-leading clinical trial benchmark data, real-world patient data and AI/ML technology within an intuitive user workflow interface to improve efficiency and accuracy of recruitment plans. Key attributes are used to determine overall trial success, from modern feasibility planning to study recruitment.

“Citeline’s new predictive enrollment modeling technology enables data-driven decisions and earlier identification of risks, ultimately leading to better trial success,” Charge said.

SCOPE attendees can learn more at the following Citeline sessions:

• Human-enabled AI with Interactive Real-world Data and Technology, Feb. 7 at 2:45 p.m.: an interactive panel of AI and pharma experts will discuss using modern feasibility tools to reduce future risk
• Transforming Patient Engagement & Recruitment for Lean Clinical Trials, Feb. 8 at 12:50 p.m.: a strategy-focused session, in partnership with Incyte, on what it takes to operationalize a seamless, trustworthy clinical trial experience

Enables Geospatially Accurate 3D Simulations with Digital Twins

MONTREAL, Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Presagis, developer of the VELOCITY 5D (V5D) digital twin production platform, today announced availability of the V5D Plugin for Unreal Engine, the most powerful 3D computer graphics engine on the market today. The plugin enables users to load a GIS-generated V5D digital twin into Unreal Engine to create highly realistic visualizations and simulations of entire cities and even countries.

“The primary application of the Unreal Engine Plugin will be in 3D visualization applications covering large geographic areas because of V5D’s unmatched ability to produce 3D digital twins from massive geospatial data sets,” said Jean-Michel Briere, Presagis President.

The most beneficial applications of the plugin will be in aviation, aerospace, urban planning, disaster preparation, and defense simulations that need to include expansive geographies. Visualizations that span long linear distances, such as the design of transportation routes and utility corridors, will also benefit. V5D for Unreal is the perfect extension of the scalable and highly automated, cloud based CDB production pipeline VELOCITY 5D. V5D for Unreal allow users to create custom visualization and simulation experiences in Unreal Engine while natively loading OGC CDB content produced by Velocity 5D platform or other OGC CDB compliant toolsets.

Release of the plugin is a win-win for existing users of both V5D and Unreal Engine, Briere explained. V5D users will be able to make powerful 3D fly-throughs and immersive simulations of their GIS-based digital twins. Unreal Engine users can now incorporate geospatially accurate cityscapes and terrains into their 3D experiences.

Launched in November 2022 by Presagis, V5D is a cloud-based platform that quickly and automatically converts massive volumes of geospatial data into high-fidelity 3D digital twins. With no geospatial processing expertise, V5D users can easily produce accurate digital twins from multiple 2D data sets, including GIS vector layers, remote sensing imagery, and other structured and unstructured data of any size, format, or type.

Developed by Epic Games, Unreal Engine is the 3D computer graphics generator that powers many of the world’s most popular and successful video games. Due to its vivid graphics and extremely accurate spatial presentation capabilities, Unreal Engine is increasingly being employed in other industries using 3D visualization and simulation technologies for improved understanding of current or future situations, risks and conditions.

Presagis will demonstrate the Unreal Engine plugin along with the unmatched speed, scalability, and realism of the V5D platform in booth #340 at GeoWeek 2023 being held February 13-15 in Denver, Colorado.
