SMC utilize a large number of ICT technologies based on 3D modeling throughout the project, from the planning, design, and construction stages all the way to maintenance and management, in order to improve the efficiency and quality of the construction cycle.

Design-Construction-Maintenance Information Management

Design-Construction-Maintenance Information Management (DCM) is a total construction management system that integrates design information management (DIM), construction information management (CIM), and maintenance information management (MIM). It is based on 3D modeling, and enables advanced quality management across the entire process of design, construction, and maintenance.

Building Information Modeling

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the practice of using digital data for building works to improve the efficiency and development of construction cycles. The three-dimensional digital data of buildings with added data on costs, finishing, management information and other elements are utilized throughout the entire process, from building design and construction to maintenance and management.

Construction Information Modeling

Construction Information Modeling (CIM) is the practice of using digital data for civil works to improve the efficiency and development of construction cycles. Using digital data largely based on 3D models, information is shared among stakeholders for conducting studies, design, construction, and maintenance.

SMC-Bridge

SMC-Bridge provides a platform that has made it possible to centrally manage and use bridge construction data across the entire process of bridge construction, together with various kinds of ICT systems as applications. Information can be shared among all concerned parties, including the client. This greatly improves productivity by increasing work efficiency via ICT use, such as through the automated creation of records for construction management documentation.
