Vi-Soft specializes in the development and maintenance of cloud-based quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) software designed for the construction industry. The company’s cutting-edge solution helps project managers stay in control by automating their QA/QC management processes and provides them with a complete view of workflow, improving project quality and profitability. It simplifies the life of project personnel – providing them with raw data, automatic reports, analytics, and the ability to access and fill in required forms – both in offices and construction sites – from subcontractor performance to bill correctness and from concrete lab test results to tasks progress on a Gantt chart.

Vi-Soft’s robust QC tool helps users perform various tasks across different stages of the project’s quality control cycle. Project & Quality control managers can manage users, approve subcontractors and suppliers, import a list of designs for reference and upload designs for markup with quality info. The solution can be used by team members to open and close nonconformance reports (NCRs), sign checklists which prescribe specific steps in approving quality standards adherence for specific work types, order lab tests and approve their results, and store all documents in a single system. It automatically generates a variety of reports based on a multitude of data points and delivers comprehensive information through dashboards to enable project managers to identify and analyze performance.

As an extension of its QA/QC solution, Vi- Soft has introduced a construction management system to eliminate the siloes created by multiple tools used by project team members.

Architects, designers, quality control personnel, planners, financial controllers and everyone involved in a project can work in a common system and easily exchange information.

“Our state-of-the-art construction management solution helps project teams reconcile all information and create interconnections between different tasks and areas of the project, improving collaboration between them,” says Sergey Olvovsky, head of product and operations, Vi-Soft.

The construction management system can be leveraged to strengthen different aspects of construction business processes. For example, if project managers need to validate the completion of a particular task, they usually rely on an approval mark on the project plan. With Vi-Soft, they now have the necessary QC information to corroborate progress. The same QC information is now becoming available for payment approval. Entries in bills of quantities can be linked to project tasks – allowing better financial controls. Adding QC information to project designs simplifies both contractor work planning and inspections. Work diary entries can also be tagged with relevant task references, subcontractor names and more - facilitating easy identification of relevant daily records months later.

Vi-Soft’s construction management system creates better synergies among teams, leading to efficiency and risk reduction. It comes with an array of tools for efficient project management, including work diaries for daily logging of events, bill of quantities support, Gantt charts for planning and execution control, and support for inspection requests.

With Vi-Soft, project management teams also have the flexibility to use external tools of their choice, such as MS Project or Primavera for project management or Benarit for financial planning and payment processing. All relevant information from these tools can be imported into Vi-Soft’s system for better data sharing and transparency among teams.

Vi-Soft’s platform has proven beneficial to numerous clients over the years and helped them streamline their workflows. In one instance, Vi-Soft’s services were solicited by a reputed QC/QA management client––Yugan Engineering––which supervises quality control processes of multiple construction projects across Israel, including railroads, bridges, and government buildings. Before the client started using Vi-Soft, it took up to four months to submit QC documentation and secure approval for a project’s final payments. After implementing Vi-Soft’s tool, the process was reduced to just two weeks on average. The system also helped the client reduce QC personnel on projects by 30 percent.

The fastest-growing construction management solution provider in Israel, Vi-Soft has worked on over 300 projects. Its revolutionary solution is quickly gaining traction and is used by dozens of construction and engineering companies.

“Quality control is our bread and butter, and construction management is our future – we help our clients to double the value of every piece of information they enter into our system,” says Sergey Olvovsky. Steering ahead, Vi-Soft aims to expand its geographical reach and continue to push the envelope of construction project management innovation.
