Kapitol Group Celebrates Two Wins at Melbourne Design Awards for Cutting-Edge Construction Innovatio

Kapitol has recently won two awards at the Melbourne Design Awards for our in-house innovations: the Construction Tracker and the Purchase Ordering App. These accolades are a testament to our team who are pushing the boundaries to improve productivity through digital innovation.

Our Construction Tracker, a bespoke 3D visualisation tool, was developed to give our project teams a detailed, real-time overview of construction progress. This tool allows us to track every single precast panel and steel member from design to installation, ensuring that no detail is overlooked. In an industry where managing numerous components is crucial to maintaining timelines and budgets, the Construction Tracker provides the insights our teams need to make informed decisions and uphold the integrity of our projects.

Equally impressive is our Purchase Ordering App, which has revolutionised our procurement processes. Developed by our digital engineers in collaboration with Procurement Manager Mark Collins, Technology Officer Andy Wong, and Full Stack Software Developer Filippo Trevisan, this app was designed to streamline the often complex and time-consuming task of tracking payments and approvals. By providing a single digital platform for procurement and payment management, the app has significantly enhanced our efficiency and financial performance.

Both of these tools embody our core values of innovation and evolution, demonstrating how we leverage technology to improve the construction industry for a better life. We’re proud to have a team of in-house Design Managers and Digital Engineers, along with software engineering and computational design experts, who lead the charge in creating and maintaining these cutting-edge systems. These bespoke systems have significantly improved our efficiency and financial performance, with both tools reflecting our commitment to innovation and tech adoption. Congratulations to all involved!
