Novade Solutions, a global leader in cloud-based field management software, has announced a ground-breaking collaboration with WakeCap, a leader in smart solutions for construction site management, that will see the duo deliver unprecedented levels of safety, quality, and productivity on large construction projects.
Headquartered in Singapore, Novade is a leading provider of field management software, trusted by the world’s largest companies in the building and infrastructure industry that has deployed on over 10,000 sites globally.
With Novade, site processes such as permits to work (PTWs), safety inspections, quality inspections or site diaries are digitised and automated using mobile devices. The data captured provides insights to streamline operations and improve performance.
The partnership will see Novade Solutions and WakeCap work together to integrate advanced software applications and IoT technologies, a strategic collaboration focused on enhancing safety, quality and productivity on large construction projects across Saudi Arabia.
“WakeCap’s easy-to-integrate tools are transformational for our construction clients,” says Hassan Albalawi, the CEO and co-founder of WakeCap.
“WakeCap automates data collection, enabling site owners to verify and quantify performance and get real-time insights on project milestones and deliverables. We are thrilled to partner with Novade, whose ability to digitise and manage processes aligns closely with our vision,” notes Albalawi.
WakeCap, whose technology solutions are implemented on some of the largest construction sites in the GCC, sets an industry standard for data-powered site visibility, thanks to its smart hard hat solution designed to improve productivity and safety on sites.
On the strategic collaboration, Novade CEO Denis Branthonne says: “WakeCap’s unique ability to capture data from the field is invaluable, especially for large-scale projects. By combining our strengths, we are set to deliver solutions that will redefine construction management in the region.”
Both companies already work with Aramco, the world’s largest integrated energy company, aiming to increase value for the Saudi group as well as extend the solution set to other projects and clients in the region, states Branthonne.
This collaboration is expected to significantly impact the Saudi Arabian construction sector, aligning with the country’s Vision 2030 goals of economic diversification and sustainable development, he adds.
