Moducore

Moducore founders Jordie Puchinger and Bill Oliver have experienced first-hand the pain points offsite manufacturers face while working with their clients in offsite construction projects. Several aspects pertaining to manufacturing lines, material flow, change management, and even workforce management are siloed and disjointed, making it difficult for modular manufacturers to sync internal workflows and outputs with the demands of stakeholders like contractors, architects, etc. Existing tools & processes designed specifically for on-site construction & general contractors have forced offsite manufacturers into systems & processes that do not work.

As an end-to-end cloud-based solution, and a purpose-built platform to ‘orchestrate’ modular manufacturing, Moducore singlehandedly helps modular manufacturers consolidate their activities at the backend and frontend of their projects. Needless to say, Moducore grew its physical team by 700% and its customer base by 1200% since its acquisition in 2021 by 4Ward Solutions Group.

With Moducore, modular manufacturers can oversee multiple projects simultaneously, all the way from the sales and estimation phase to design, manufacturing, and eventual close-out. Offsite manufacturing lifecycles can be well organized with the platform’s ability to streamline planning, designing, and manufacturing operations under one roof.

Moducore also serves as a centralized communication hub enabling close collaboration and information exchange with any and all project stakeholders. Moducore streamlines communications and helps eliminate miscommunications, reduces delays, all while improving overall access to project information.

Moducore’s holistic approach provides management and executive teams with project reporting and health metrics previously unavailable. Traditionally, these processes take days and weeks as this is spread across emails, spreadsheets and disjointed software solutions. The solution’s intuitive BoM (Bill of Materials) allows unprecedented visibility and management of materials at a unit or component level. This allows for real-time communication between inventory systems, scheduling, production, site, and purchasing and allows for streamlined project management and project health insights. Supporting this dynamic is Moducore’s task management, time management, and document control tools which are accessible when and where people work. They can use factory 3D as-built Digital Twin - provided by 4Ward Solutions Group - to map out and gain real-time visibility into their production operations.

Moducore’s robust data sets, real-time information and in-depth functionality unlock the offsite manufacturing industry’s ability to accelerate growth and recognize efficiencies not previously measured. KPIs and Advanced Reporting put operation and executive teams in a proactive rather than reactive position to improve their projects and identify risks ahead of time.

Moducore works hands-on with its offsite manufacturing partners and delivers a white-glove approach to its focused onboarding and implementation to ensure a customer’s current systems and processes are transitioned into Moducore successfully. This approach helps mitigate the risk of technology adoption and provides a level of project certainty.

The entire team of Moducore comes with generations worth of experience in offsite manufacturing and technology. Looking ahead, the organization is focused on not just being a tool, but a supporting ecosystem for the entire offsite manufacturing industry and its stakeholders.
