          About MySmartPlans

          Shelley and Dominick Armato
          Shelley is the founder and CEO of MySmartPlans. Her husband, Dominick, is a co-founder and president. They suffered firsthand from the effects of the chaos in the industry. Dominick, a 45-year contractor, was wildly successful, and one project with insufficient data caused them to shut the doors on that company. But they rose again and reinvented the construction industry by streamlining the business.

          MySmartPlans is a technology-enabled service  and platform with an experienced digital information librarian as part of your team who creates transparency, organization, and efficiency in construction projects. They are the driving force behind Data Governance, which mitigates the risk associated with insufficient document oversight.

Build on time, on schedule, and with audited pre-discovery files that are proven to prevent litigation!

          We have the most advanced construction technology for building world-class facilities in the world. Use this for our identity!

          MySmartPlans has saved thousands of hours in costly rework and has allowed us to collaborate with our team members in the most efficient manner possible.

          Craig Childers

          MySmartPlans helped us focus on the project rather than collection of data & documentation. The MSP team knows what needs to be included and does a great job gathering, managing and ensure timey responses on required information. It also gives us a centralized location for project documentation, giving us comfort of knowing where to find information in the future. MSP allows us to work smarter and be smarter.

          Technology has made promises over the years that someday we would all be paperless and all electronic, but there has been a missing link in sharing information between groups. MySmartPlans is the medium that fills that gap.

          As a construction litigator…to be able to point and click and find the documentation that relates to that specific change order, whatever, in seconds as opposed to days or weeks manually would be a game changer.

Impact of MySmartPlans on the Mountain Home Air Force Base Project

Report: Impact of MySmartPlans on the Mountain Home Air Force Base Project

Project Overview: The $40 million Mountain Home Air Force Base project faced considerable challenges, including navigating the complexities of the COVID-19 pandemic and working with a contractor (KTR) known for previous issues on government contracts. Despite these hurdles, the project was successfully completed three months ahead of schedule with no modifications, apart from a deductive change order benefiting the government.

MySmartPlans Investment & Role: MySmartPlans was implemented on this project with an investment of $124,000, covering both the platform and the dedicated service of Digital Information Librarians (DILs). This system served as the central hub and bridge of the USACE RMS platform for project information management.

Key Impacts and Benefits:

  1. Significant Schedule Acceleration & Cost Savings:
    • Completing the project three months early generated substantial savings in overhead costs.
    • Based on the provided overhead schedule data, the estimated hourly overhead cost for a project of this approximate size is $789.14 (interpolated value based on the $25M rate of $493.21/hr and the $50M rate of $986.43/hr).
    • Assuming a standard 176 working hours per month, the early completion resulted in an estimated total overhead cost saving of approximately $416,666.
  2. Impressive Return on Investment (ROI):
    • The total overhead cost savings ($416,666) significantly outweighed the MySmartPlans investment ($124,000).
    • This yielded a remarkable ROI of approximately 236% ($292,666 Net Savings / $124,000 Cost).
  3. Enhanced Operational Efficiency (RedZone Delivery DayOne):
    • MySmartPlans facilitated the “RedZone Delivery DayOne” approach. The platform’s Digital Information Librarians (DILs) began assembling and vetting critical project deliverables and closeout information from the very start.
    • This ensured that all necessary operational data was organized, accurate, and readily available for a seamless transition to the facility operators upon project completion.
  4. Real-Time Client Visibility & Data-Driven Decisions:
    • The platform provided a transparent, single source of truth for all project documentation and data.
    • This offered the client real-time visibility into project progress.
    • Access to organized, audited, and instantly searchable information empowered the project team to make timely, informed decisions, crucial for navigating the project’s inherent challenges.
    • Digital Information Librarians (DILs) played a vital role by meticulously organizing, auditing, and distributing documents, ensuring data integrity, and freeing up the project team to focus on execution rather than administrative tasks.
  5. Risk Mitigation:
    • By ensuring all documentation was complete, accurate, audited, and accessible, MySmartPlans minimized risks associated with miscommunication, errors, and potential disputes, especially important given the contractor’s history and the pandemic backdrop. This likely contributed to the project’s completion with only a deductive modification.

Conclusion:

The implementation of MySmartPlans, coupled with the expertise of the Digital Information Librarians, was a key factor in the exceptional success of the Mountain Home Air Force Base project. Despite significant challenges, the platform delivered substantial cost savings through schedule acceleration, provided a significant return on investment, enhanced operational readiness via the RedZone Delivery DayOne methodology, and improved decision-making through real-time data visibility. This demonstrates the powerful impact of leveraging a comprehensive project information management solution to achieve efficiency, transparency, and successful outcomes even in complex project environments.
