This solution aims to fundamentally improve the productivity and profitability of construction projects by integrally optimizing project planning, personnel allocation, material procurement, and construction management.
■ Background: Why is construction 'presumed to be delayed'?
For many years, the construction industry has faced challenges such as:
Chronic project delays
Worsening labor shortages
Fluctuating material prices
Multi-layered subcontracting structure
As a result, many projects experience:
Extended construction periods
Increased costs
Reduced profit margins
The structure is such that delays are 'presumed'.
■ The essence of the problem: Fragmented project management
In construction projects:
Project planning
Personnel allocation
Material procurement
On-site construction
Are often managed separately, leading to a structure that is not designed for overall optimization.
Consequently:
Idle time and redundant work
Inefficient personnel allocation
Material shortages or excesses
Schedule misalignment
Occur, leading to delays. The problem is not the site itself, but the 'lack of structural optimization'.
■ Solution: Project Optimization AI 'AI Builder on IDX'
'AI Builder on IDX' is an integrated AI platform that 'optimizes' the entire construction project.
1. Data Integration (IDX)
Project data
Personnel/craftsman data
Material/order data
On-site progress data
Are aggregated into a knowledge drive, enabling centralized management and visualization of the entire project status.
2. AI Analysis and Prediction
Analysis and early detection of project delay risks
Analysis of personnel operational status
Analysis of material supply risks
Pre-identifying signs of delays based on accumulated data.
3. Optimization Engine
Review and improvement proposals for project schedules
Optimization proposals for personnel allocation
Proposals for material procurement timing and quantity
AI supports decision-making to prevent delays.
4. AI PMO (Execution and Operation Optimization)
Progress management and confirmation support for project plans
Information sharing and action proposals for the site
KPI monitoring
Continuous improvement (Loop)
Achieving a 'no-delay site'.
■ Expected Introduction Effects
Reduction of project delays
Improvement in personnel utilization rates
Reduction of material loss
Shortening of construction periods
Improvement in profit margins
The results change even with the same personnel and resources.
■ Message
Until now, the construction industry has relied on:
On-site capability
Experience
Coordination skills
However, from now on, it will be an era where 'companies that can optimize processes' will win. Processes are a management area that must be optimized.
■ Future Developments
AI Data, Inc. will continue to expand 'Optimization AI x AI PMO' to various industries including manufacturing, logistics, retail, and construction, as well as:
Human resources/services
Tourism/hotels
Real estate
Healthcare
All industries are 'optimization problems'.

AI Data, Inc. has been protecting and utilizing corporate and individual data assets for over 20 years, based on its data infrastructure and intellectual property infrastructure. Trusted by over 10,000 companies and 1 million customers, its 'Data Ecosystem Business', which encompasses data sharing, backup, recovery, migration, and erasure, has won the BCN Award for 17 consecutive years as the top-selling product. In data infrastructure, it provides IDX cloud data management and recovery services, and has earned high praise in the legal field through forensic investigations and evidence disclosure services, which received the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Award.
Meanwhile, in intellectual property infrastructure, it supports IP management and monetization through its group company's patent search and application support system 'Tokkyo.Ai' and the construction of an IP marketplace that enables patent trading. These are integrated to deploy a fusion platform of data and intellectual property powered by generative AI 'AI Komei'. It also focuses on nurturing young engineers in collaboration with the Ministry of Defense, contributing to strengthening social infrastructure through data management and intellectual property protection.
