Building a Construction Project Management System for Construction and Structural Engineering Firm
The PPE (Project Production Environment) platform represents a comprehensive digital transformation initiative designed to modernize construction project management workflows. This enterprise-grade solution integrates task management, BIM (Building Information Modeling) visualization, and collaborative workflows into a unified web-based platform, enabling construction teams to manage complex projects from planning through post-market phases.

Implementation Highlights
Multi-stage task workflows with role-based approvals, automated routing, and real-time progress tracking
Browser-based 3D BIM visualization using Xeokit with optimized IFC-to-XKT model streaming integrated with tasks
Configurable workflows and dynamic form templates with conditional logic and version control
Enterprise-grade security with role-based access, user group hierarchies, session handling, and project-level permissions
Centralized multi-language support with user-specific preferences (Swedish and English)
Challenges & Solutions
People got confused about task status because creators, workers, and approvers all needed different information.
Solution: The system shows each user a simple task status based on their role, so everyone sees only what matters to them.
Large 3D building models took too long to open, slowing down meetings and decisions.
Solution: Models now load step by step, letting teams start viewing and working immediately.
Different projects needed different approval steps, but the old system was too rigid.
Solution: The platform allows easy setup of custom approval steps to match each project’s workflow.
