Case Study: Cannistraro Achieves Cost and Schedule Certainty with Autodesk Construction Cloud

How Cannistraro’s Lean Construction Approach Creates Cost and Schedule Certainty

Cannistraro, a Boston-based mechanical construction firm, was looking for better ways to improve cost, schedule, quality, and safety while reducing waste and rework across complex commercial projects. To support its lean construction approach, the company used Autodesk Construction Cloud, including BIM 360 and Navisworks, to improve coordination and information sharing across designers, fabricators, contractors, owners, engineers, and field teams.

With Autodesk Construction Cloud, Cannistraro streamlined prefabrication and modular construction, connecting BIM data to its fabrication shop and enabling better 3D model coordination, constructability reviews, and just-in-time delivery. The results included five fewer deliveries, two weeks saved on the schedule, 18 fewer material handling hours, 110 fewer field hours, and 13% cost savings on materials, along with improved safety and less waste.
