to the web seminar “Construction site meets office: The future of the construction industry”, October 2023
How can the office and construction site be combined in such a way that construction companies can hold their own in a constantly changing world and successfully lead their business into the future? What concrete measures can be taken to achieve competitive advantages?
Our Managing Director Max gave an overview and provided a handout at the web seminar organized by the Verband Baugewerblicher Unternehmer Hessen e.V. (Hesse Construction Industry Association).
with Torsten Mantei
Site Manager at Rohrleitungs- und Tiefbau GmbH (RTN)
The demands on construction documentation continue to grow. Added to this are challenges such as a shortage of skilled workers and a generally high volume of orders. What is the best way for a construction company to deal with this?
We spoke to Torsten Mantei to find out more about his practical work with Vaira on the construction site. He is a site manager at construction service provider Rohrleitungs- und Tiefbau GmbH Neubrandenburg (RTN) and has been using Vaira in the trenches for some time now.

in cooperation with IMP GmbH
as part of his degree program “Surveying and Geoinformation (VGI19)” at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences
The author Ludwig Maria Rode wrote his thesis entitled “Usability study on the integration of an augmented reality measurement component into existing pipeline documentation processes”.
In his work, he looked at current processes and analyzed the structure and functions of Vaira. He also focuses on his accuracy analysis of the Vaira app and the methodology behind it. The work was rounded off with a performance audit.
As the work contains sensitive internal information from participating companies, the author has created the additional 12-page summary of the original 70-page work offered here, which we are happy to offer for download.
Max as a guest in the podcast of
Dipl.-Ing. Architekt Michael Boldt
The host, architect Michael Boldt, and our managing director Max Erdmann spent around 50 minutes discussing the digitalization of the construction industry. With over 35 years of experience in the construction industry as a project manager, Michael was able to ask the right questions to gain a good understanding of the challenges facing the industry and Vaira. They also discussed the role of modern tools in employee satisfaction and how preparation can be useful even when an industry is still doing well.

The digital technician – what does it take to work digitally in the trenches?
The digital fitter is a forward–looking concept for documenting construction work efficiently and accurately. The technical article accompanying the presentation focuses on how this transformation can take place—and how it can help solve challenges in construction. Guido Reimuth, who is responsible for network documentation at Stadtwerke Eschwege, is also quoted from his interview with us.
The interview was conducted in winter 2022 as a text–only interview.
