Today’s projects don’t just need digital tools — they need technology that amplifies expertise and accelerates delivery.
Cumming has built a scalable tech stack – an intelligent digital ecosystem that we call Actual Useful Things (AUT) – that combines applications for project management, cost and commercial management, scheduling and risk management, data visualization, and more, all integrated into the services we deliver to our clients.
We are a data-driven, digitally enabled, AI-enhanced consultancy that leverages best-in-class tools and products while maintaining our human edge. Our collective expertise is available to all team members through a robust, AI-enabled knowledge management and training program that teaches them how to use AI responsibly as a force multiplier, while reinforcing our culture of curiosity and problem-solving.
The result is transparent, data-driven decision-making, tighter cost and schedule forecasts, and persistent data that supports facility development from concept through operations.
Digital Ecosystem
We assess your specific project needs to design and implement a tailored digital ecosystem that scales with your project. From tool selection and deployment to hands-on training and continuous optimization, we align technology with evolving project goals to maximize value. The tools we use include those identified below.
Project Delivery Platform
Our standard platform, Procore, is available to all stakeholders and streamlines collaboration throughout the entire project lifecycle. This platform is supported by a dedicated, in-house team and seamlessly integrates with other construction collaboration tools to ensure smooth information flow.
- Procore Helix: AI Assist, Agent Builder
- CAPP (Cumming’s internal project delivery platform)
- Support for ACC, Oracle Aconex, Ingenious.build, and more
Reality & Project Capture
We leverage a variety of partnerships with leading reality and progress capture tools, including turnkey services and field-operated platforms that provide regular comprehensive photo and video documentation as well as AI-assisted progress capture.
- Tools include DroneDeploy, Cupix, Multivista, and OnsiteIQ
- AI-enabled progress assessment against schedule of values
- Integration with project delivery platform
Tool Integration
As part of bringing an integrated technology ecosystem to accelerate delivery, we maintain a curated catalog of partner and other third-party software tools that include preconstruction tools, change management communication, and more.
- Live catalogue of available tools, curated by Cumming Group
- Preconstruction tool: Join.build
- Change management tool: Clearstory
Data Visualization & Insights
Our team of data analysts transforms complex project data into clear, actionable insights through intuitive dashboards and real-time reporting tools, offering both standard and fully customized views of KPIs, budgets, schedules, and program metrics to support faster, more confident decision-making.
- Support for PowerBI, Tableau, Looker
- Real-time KPIs, budget health, milestones
- Program- and project-level reporting
Cost Estimating
Our cost management team combines 3D model–based estimating, AI-assisted takeoffs, and a robust construction cost database to deliver detailed, first-principles cost estimates at every stage of design.
- CostX (3D model-based estimating)
- Togal, Ediphi (AI-enabled estimating tools)
- Cumming Group’s extensive in-house construction cost database
Scheduling
Our scheduling team engages during pre‑construction to support master planning, phasing and logistics, and baseline schedule development, with optional 4D model integration and quantitative schedule risk analysis (QSRA) to inform contingency and improve certainty.
- Primavera P6, Microsoft Project (Schedule development)
- Synchro (4D modelling)
- Primavera Risk Analysis, Crystal Ball (QSRA)
