Visilean review

- Best custom service i have ever experienced. - Visilean wants feedback and really listen to it. I am very convinced that Visilean wants to be developed and contiune to improve, and they show it. Ideas and user friendly tips i give in feedback often is implemented in the near future.

PROS

- Live update on phones. - Low time spent on documenting activities that goes according to planned. - That you make each subcontractor "more" responsible when they need to accept each activities 6-8 weeks before start by making it "ready".

CONS

- No view to gives you the full overview of the long term plan. (like 12 months ahead). - Todays use of colors. Ready state is good for the planner only, but during planning meeting with all contractors, look

Reason for choosing VisiLean

- Because of a good test period, with great custom support. - Each contractor update their plan themself in real time. - Scheduling view were something similar to excel visualization, without needed maintainance

Reasons for switching to VisiLean

We have been using MS Project as the overall plan, but an manual Excel-sheet to visualize the plan. (Excel gives the best visualization as it is fully custom, but requires manually updating.

Lean Collaboration

My overall experience with VisiLean has been great. My biggest challenge had nothing to do with the software, but rather the culture and getting the engagement of the contractors and team members to work within the platform. This was more of an issue because we introduced this pilot without updates to contracts and we had some unique circumstances with the variety of projects on site that our contractors were working on, with only one piloting VisiLean. But it's very clear that when set up right early on, in terms of project expectations among the team, that engagement wouldn't be an issue. It really is an easy program to learn and collaborate in, remotely.

PROS

The remote collaboration and instant updates, particularly with our COVID dispersed teams. I like that it provided a depth of data, but in a super easy to use side bar that follows you through different views. I also liked the flexibility in how to manage a schedule, whether it be in Gantt, a planner board, or to even to seamlessly export to P6, if that's necessary. The customer service is second to none and they really take the continuous improvement mindset to heart with their frequent updates.

CONS

There were some hiccups in early integration when importing a schedule and the VisiLean calendar not matching the P6 calendar, so that through some things off, but it was easily corrected. Also, their constraints log is receiving a major overhaul and will be rolled out shortly, I just wish I was able to have this update earlier on.

Reason for choosing VisiLean

Evaluated several others, but those were the top contenders. Went with VisiLean because it covered most of our factors and criteria, with ease of use, web-browser accessibility, and live remote collaboration being the three key ones.

Review about VisiLean (7 months experience)

PROS

VisiLean makes it easier for us as planners to report easily without any need to use multiple platforms at the same time. It also applies Lean philosphy to the highest, especially when it comes to the Visualization . The combination between Lean and BIM is also applied in VisiLean through the model view (I have not used it yet but I am looking forward to apply it soon). Last but not least, the scheduler view makes it easier when it comes to weekly planning and defining the associated constraints. It gives us a live update of what is happening on site which helped alot during the pandemic. VisiLean is not just useful during the pandemic but it will grow even more after due to the previously mentioned advantages it gives to the users and specefically to the planners

CONS

I do not have so much cons about the Software, but if I have to choose one I would say the PDF exported from the Platform is not actually helpful/clear. There should be some work in accordance with this point I think. Apart from that, the sytem is great and I really recommend it to every body

Vendor Response

Hi Omar, Thank you so much for that detailed review! We appreciate your feedback and will take the shortcomings into account. We look forward to continually improve the system and working with you on your projects! Regards, VisiLean Team

The future of Lean Programming in Construction!!!!

We have been using it to monitor the activities onsite in loading the two weeks lookahead Programmes extracting out of the main baseline programme. Proactive updates solves a lot of problem especially the consumption of time for a Planner in getting updates from various departments onsite. The tagging of individuals gives instant response for the constrained and delayed activities and helps in proactively solving issues onsite and in successful completion of the activity. Overall its a pretty good and useful tool and is quite famous among all the main contractor and the subcontractors onsite and has been used proactively used by everyone to measure the progress onsite.

PROS

Its one of best tool i have used so far in monitoring the activities progressing onsite. If the tool is being used proactively by the Site team, we can make sure all planned works can be achieved on time with proactive updates, constraints driving the activities, tagging the person responsible for the access of a particular activity and so on. Overall its a very good tool and we have been using it since a year and is very popular among the site team. The Mobile access feature the best feature of Visilean wherein the engineers can update the progress of the activities live on their mobile while onsite when its either completed, stopped due to certain reason or delayed due to access and so on. Its makes life easy of every person executing the works onsite to update their daily activities rather than waiting to come back to their respective offices and update the progress like we were doing it earlier.

CONS

It still needs more features like offline updating and tracking incorrect updates etc. It has these glitches like the updates doesn't get recorded when done on the laptop/desktop but it does record when its done through the mobile platform. These things needs to be fixed. But Overall a very good option of the tool.

Reasons for switching to VisiLean

Its an advanced and a very user friendly progress monitoring / programming tool.

Excellent company I was involved with bringing them into the Middle East into a tier 1 contractor who self executed the majority of the site activities

PROS

Brilliant tool for connecting high level planning to the detailed day to day activities on site

CONS

The most challenging part is getting the lean process part of the culture

Reason for choosing VisiLean

Seemed to be the most mature software at the time of implementation for us to use company wide
