Expanding BizStack Construction Apps

MODE, Inc., a startup based in Silicon Valley, has made exciting strides in enhancing its suite of applications tailored for construction sites. The company has officially added two noteworthy applications — the pH Monitoring App and the Turbidity Monitoring App — to its existing BizStack Construction Apps portfolio. This endeavor marks the first phase of MODE's commitment to continuously deliver applications that address operational challenges on construction sites, building upon its established partnerships.

Addressing Challenges in Site Drainage Management

Construction inevitably generates water, whether it’s spring water or wastewater, which must undergo purification before being discharged. Inadequate purification leading to elevated pH or turbidity levels can necessitate returning treated water to its original holding tank. This creates the risk of overflow, especially when new water sources are combined with recycled water, potentially resulting in environmental hazards and public disasters.

To mitigate these risks, a system that allows for constant monitoring and swift response to water quality anomalies is essential.

Overview of the pH Monitoring App

Key Challenges Solved

Currently, detecting when treated water's pH levels fall outside the acceptable range of approximately pH 5.8 to 8.6 can be slow, risking the safety of the water tank and raising overflow risks.

Solutions and Expected Outcomes

The pH Monitoring App enables real-time monitoring of treated water’s pH levels, sending immediate alerts to users when the measurements fall outside established parameters. This functionality allows for rapid interventions such as chemical adjustments to maintain water quality. Additionally, the app accumulates and manages measurement data over the construction period, aiding in accountability and verification later on.

Overview of the Turbidity Monitoring App

Key Challenges Solved

Just like pH levels, when treated water's turbidity exceeds established standards, it can necessitate the return of water to the holding tank, thereby increasing the risk of overflow and environmental impact.

Solutions and Expected Outcomes

The Turbidity Monitoring App provides continuous monitoring of turbidity levels in treated water, sending alerts when those levels rise above acceptable thresholds. Site personnel can then swiftly act to adjust chemical dosing or take other necessary measures. The app also ensures data is automatically collected and managed, enhancing transparency in discharge management and streamlining reporting processes.

Understanding BizStack Construction Apps

The BizStack Construction Apps suite is specifically designed to aid safety, quality, and environmental management in construction operations. Building on its partnership experiences, MODE plans to systematically expand application offerings within BizStack, with the pH and Turbidity Monitoring Apps representing the initial step towards addressing crucial aspects of water quality management.

What is BizStack?

BizStack is a next-generation data integration solution that consolidates real-time site data and existing systems. Leveraging AI, it enhances operational efficiency and safety through intuitive operation. Connecting diverse data generated in construction, manufacturing, and logistics environments, it accumulates and analyzes information from IoT sensors, cameras, and existing systems in real time.

About MODE

MODE supports the integration of real-time site data through the BizStack platform. Leveraging digital technologies with an understanding of on-site challenges, the company assists numerous organizations in their digital transformation efforts.
