Matrics provides an integrated approach which links all the requisite information systems such as the information structure of contract conditions, technical specifications, activity coding, estimating and accounts as well as document management systems into a common code
The Matrics Code Structures have been tried and tested on many different types of project to validate the feasibility and acceptance by different parties. It provides a direct link between the numerous formats required to analyze the project from different aspects such as environmental acceptance, planning information, risk assessments, method statements, scheduling and not least cost optimization and job site work planning. In fact it can be directly linked and automated to the Contract and preparation of administrative reports in support of interim payments and claims.
Matrics Consult works together with a team of like minded Partners in Europe, Asia and Africa and can count on the experience of its highly trained personnel and modern IT facilities.
Matrics Consult also continues to provide supporting lectures to an international audience of civil engineering project managers in a variety of countries at recognised institutions and universities.
Matrics provides a user friendly and comprehensive structured code library with corresponding graphics for a seamless integrated approach to information management for the construction industry linking all the requisite information systems required to correlate the following into a single harmonised model.
The basis of all good project management is planning and Matrics provides a harmonized work breakdown structure that reflects the development of the project activities so that they can be filtered and reviewed instantly.
All documentation is coded according to the adopted work breakdown structure including the table of contents to enable detailed content search. Adopting a common approach throughout Matrics provides a unique time and cost effective way of managing complex projects.
Used by authorities, employers, consultants, contractors and specialist suppliers alike as a check list to develop building information models, contract documents. Provides an independent view point for reviewing the hidden risks in the diverse documentation received for a new project in a local or foreign environment.
Adaptable to any language, particular set of regulations, prescriptive standards or specification clauses through logical comparative tables and in-built technical/commercial dictionary which in turn are related to the Matrics Model. Provides a common link for developing the contract schedule and budget from drawings or BIM.
The multi-level harmonized data structure provides the user with built-in artificial intelligence based on the logical process-orientated approach to data management linked to practical experience in the field. The easy to understand graphics enable the user to quickly influence the overall outcome of the project objectives as different options are investigated or become available. The Matrics Model automates the links.
The library scope covers all commonly used items within civil engineering and related building projects. The highly developed and coordinated work breakdown structure provides a clear, concise and consistent approach to information management in construction within the complexity of often conflicting or incoherent information.
The Matrics Model was designed with benefit of practical application on all types and size of projects. The user defines the level of detail is required for the problem in hand. The Matrics Model uses the same logic from initial investigation to contract award, commissioning and operation providing the requisite interfaces for a comprehensive, fast and accurate solution to manage or avoid potential claims or time / cost overruns.
