Every lighting concept EGU’s team creates is unique and requires a detailed understanding of the existing space before designing an optimized lighting solution. When modernizing lighting systems, an on-site visit is always necessary to assess the current infrastructure, dimensions, and layout. However, this process had several significant challenges for the company:

• Time-Consuming Measurements: A considerable portion of each site visit was dedicated to manually measuring rooms and floors, which was both labor-intensive and prone to human error. Even minor miscalculations could lead to inaccuracies in the lighting plan, requiring follow-up visits and adjustments.
• Manual Documentation Delays: Once back at the office, our team had to manually redraw room layouts based on the collected measurements and photographs. This was not only time-consuming but also created potential gaps in documentation, as any missing data meant revisiting the site.
• Scaling the Process Efficiently: With over 1,000 lighting concepts developed annually, maintaining efficiency across multiple projects was a growing concern. The need for accurate, standardized documentation across different sites added another layer of complexity.
• Limited On-Site Expertise: Not all field representatives are trained lighting designers, meaning they could collect basic information but lacked the tools to capture comprehensive site details needed for a full lighting plan.

We needed a solution that could streamline our work, reduce time spent on-site, minimize errors, and enhance collaboration between field representatives and lighting designers.
