Mark Sawyer, CEO of Vico said
'I'm very pleased to be working with Synergy and IFA. These partners bring a wide range of experience and skills established over many years that will be of great value to our construction customers. We at Vico strongly believe in the need for accomplished Project Managers with direct construction experience in order to provide the best possible client support; Synergy and IFA have clearly demonstrated that they have these skill sets plus the resources to deliver.'
'Synergy Software Systems has delivered leading construction solutions to the Middle East for over 10 years. The challenge of skill shortages and material inflation are greater than ever. 5D modeling and line of balance planning will integrate construction management and slash the massive waste and lost time endemic in the industry. Lean construction is now a reality and we are delighted with end user response to Vico Software,' said Stephen Jones - Synergy.
'IFA - Business & Projects Management has recognized the market need in applying IT across different sectors of the construction Industry; IFA has developed a unique approach which will transform project management from traditional concepts to a new era. Vico's Virtual Construction software and solutions in project management are both innovative and important. Being able to identify and apply best practice are essential skills, as is an understanding of how to leverage the right technology for communication and information sharing. This unique and latest IT technology will support clients' efforts to reduce cost, risk and time in construction projects,' said Mahir Abuaskar - IFA.
Vico has also outlined an innovative programme for all Colleges and Universities in the Middle East. Vico Software will make available to all academic institutions, for both tutors and students, the latest 5D Virtual Construction software free of charge. All educational institutions can apply for this software and will also be provided with free Interactive Training Guides. In addition any tutor may also attend a free training course at Vico's development office in Budapest.
Mark Sawyer added, 'We believe that the Middle East is the most progressive and dynamic construction environment in the world today. The pace of construction which has to date been extremely rapid is forecast to make a quantum leap in the near future. This will put enormous pressures on existing technical resources in the construction industry. We therefore believe that one of the ways in which Vico can play a part in helping resolve this potentially enormous problem, is to train existing and future students on the latest technologies designed to improve overall productivity of the industry.'
