At the same time, Kilmac has made significant investments in new technology to further boost its operational efficiency. The company’ s recent investment in the full suite of Trimble survey technology – including six SPS720 Total Stations, six R780 GNSS Rovers, six SC710 Data Collectors, and the Trimble Siteworks, Business Centre, and WorksManager – forms part of a broader strategy to improve accuracy, productivity, and real-time decision-making. In turn, these innovations will reduce rework and improve communication between its design and construction teams.
This focus on technology sits alongside Kilmac’ s wider investment in preconstruction and project planning. By combining more accurate, realtime site data with the experience of its operational teams, the company can identify buildability, sequencing, and programme challenges earlier, helping to manage risk on complex projects such as the £ 76 million Clackmannanshire Wellbeing Hub and Lochies School – one of its largest projects to date.
“ This project brings together several areas in which Kilmac has developed considerable experience. It has significant Passivhaus requirements, challenging ground conditions and substantial earthworks, while the pool construction
