CMS develops site logistics and staging strategies specifically designed around the unique requirements of modular construction.
Unlike conventional construction, modular projects can require the coordinated arrival and movement of numerous oversized modules, trucks, cranes, equipment, and installation personnel within a limited area.
CMS can assist with:
-
Site Access Planning — Evaluating entrances, exits, gates, roadways, turning radiuses, overhead restrictions, and other access considerations.
-
Module Delivery Routes — Planning how transport vehicles will enter, maneuver through, and exit the project site.
-
Module Staging — Determining whether modules should be staged, where staging should occur, and how modules will move from staging to the crane.
-
Crane Locations — Coordinating crane setup areas with module delivery, building configuration, and installation sequencing.
-
Equipment Placement — Planning locations for forklifts, telehandlers, manlifts, support equipment, and other installation resources.
-
Traffic Flow — Developing practical movement patterns for trucks, construction equipment, workers, and other site activities.
-
Site Constraint Identification — Identifying utilities, structures, grades, fencing, landscaping, overhead lines, or other obstacles that may affect installation.
-
Installation Logistics Plans — Creating visual plans that communicate how the modular installation operation is intended to function.
The CMS Advantage:
CMS evaluates the site from an installation and logistics perspective, helping ensure that modules can actually get from the highway to their final position in the building safely and efficiently.
