The construction market finally seems to have regained momentum.According to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), in the first half of this year, the sector's GDP grew by 2.5%, driven by new projects and the economic recovery.Meanwhile, a question that still troubles builders and developers are the processes ofpost-construction managementof enterprises, which are increasingly complex with the growing demand for transparency, efficiency in service and cost reduction.
For thePredialize, uma das top 10 construtechs do ranking “Open Startups 2023”,The solution to this problem is clear: the construction industry needs to see innovation as a competitive advantage to grow. And to help the sector in this scenario, the startup has committed to developing digital solutions that transform the way construction companies and developers manage projects after delivery.
Founded in 2020, based in Florianópolis/SC, Predialize is present in over 300 construction companies and impacts more than 44,000 users, including engineers, property managers, owners, and residents. Responsible for creating a platform that offersintegrated and personalized management to meet the demands of the post-construction phase, the objective is to invest in data intelligence to automate processes and, as a result, bring efficiency and legal security to the sector, in addition to improving the customer experience.
Jean Sacenti, civil engineer and startup CEO,claims that the construtech is following an imminent digitalization in the market. "Historically, the construction industry has been slow to adopt technologies, but this is changing. Innovation and real-time data integration are reshaping complex tasks to make them practical and intuitive, and our mission is to provide a comprehensive view of the project lifecycle, from delivery to maintenance, to drive digital transformation," he explains.
Predialize organizes the offer into various modules of the software. The platform license must be purchased by the construction company, which provides access to the building managers and owners of the development. THEInteractive ManualIt is the main solution and can be customized to allow image uploads, data generation, and ticket reception, as well as assist in managing preventive maintenance. With the app, corporations ensure the storage of documents and photos that can safeguard the business in case of future problems, providing legal security.
Another benefit also involves a significant reduction in operational costs, as the platform decreases the resolution time of service requests and improves the technical and legal quality in the delivery of manuals, tripling the quality of the delivery of the user and operation manual. The economy is a natural consequence that ultimately contributes not only to the sustainability of companies but also to the reputational image of users.
The results are significant: clients who adopt Predialize's solutions observe a 30% reduction in post-construction service requests and a 50% decrease in call resolution time. Additionally, engagement with the owner and condominium manuals increased by 90%, bringing more transparency and efficiency to the relationship with property owners.
“For construction companies dealing with increasingly tight profit margins, operational quality applied to innovation can be decisive in raising the standard of post-construction management. With the platform, companies can customize their own app and monitor the project to avoid waste and create a brand that communicates transparently with the customer, creating long-term relationships and generating new business opportunities,”concludes Sacenti.
