TECH CORNER TECHNOLOGY TO ASK ABOUT IN 2021 Staying up to date with technology is important to MBC Group. It can streamline many of the aspects of our projects. MBC Group strives to innovate with ideas as well as the tech we use on our project sites. These are two of our tools which our clients have been impressed with: Drone – Our drone allows us to get a high-resolution view of hard-to-reach places during building inspections. The drone saves money for our clients not only by reducing inspection time, but also by eliminating the cost and requirement of lifts and scaffolding. 3D Imaging – Our 3D imaging service allows us to capture project sites in the 3D realm, sort of like a virtual dollhouse. It gives our clients virtual 360-degree access to their project site. The current pandemic situation has resulted in travel restrictions and other COVID-19 guidelines which have made operations more complicated. 3D imaging is a great solution for those who can’t make it to their sites. Watch a short video about 3D imaging here: FORENSIC LABORATORY OUR FIRST RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT INNITIATIVE Innovation is what drives MBC Group. In July of 2020, MBC Group hired Dr. Robin Abel as our Chief Scientist, with the sole purpose of propelling MBC Group into the future as the head of our new Research & Development Division. Dr. Abel will establish and implement our new Forensic Laboratory Services Program, which will focus on providing analytical tests that have historically been outsourced to contract laboratories. Why? The same reason MBC Group has moved into providing a greater variety of services: to provide our clients with more in-house services at the quality MBC Group is known for. The lab will give us more control over analysis timelines and reduced wait times for sample results. What’s more exciting is that the space will allow a platform for our scientists’ bigger subject of research: the automation of certain processes using machine-learning technology. MBC Group is currently working on ways to bring our analysis on to our project sites for immediate analysis and verdict. Stay tuned to our website and future newsletter issues to keep updated on our progress.
