We’re Heading to DBIA 2026: Meet iFieldSmart AI at Booth #131

As the construction industry evolves, we at iFieldSmart continue to research and develop construction technology with new and advanced features, as well as specialized project delivery functions. We look forward to connecting with Owners, Architects, Engineers, and General Contractors to discuss the needs of the construction industry.

If you are an Owner/Investor/Developer, Architect, Engineer of Record or in General Contracting, learn how digital tools can be used to address the challenges you experience on a day to day basis in the construction industry. We are bringing AI Skills, 360 Site Documentation, and Augmented and Mixed Reality to DBIA 2026.

Stop by the iFiledSmart AI Booth #131 to see recent developments in construction technology and share your boldest ideas on the opportunities and challenges the construction industry faces. We make construction projects smarter and more collaborative, one project at a time.

The Hidden Delays Behind Project Coordination

Bringing design and construction together doesn’t always mean everyone has the same information.

• Design revisions. A drawing changes, and the field keeps working from the old one until someone notices.
• Field conditions. The team debates what sits behind a wall because nobody documented it before it closed.
• Owner updates. When owners ask for a progress update, teams shouldn’t have to go through countless emails and folders to piece together the answer.

The real challenge isn’t communication. It’s making sure the right information is available, current, and connected to where the work happens.

AI Skills: Bringing Project Information Together

A project manager going into a coordination meeting. They need the RFI response concerning a beam penetration, the latest inspection notes, and the status of two open submittals. Normally, teams spend time searching multiple systems and files to put together what should be a simple update.

With AI Skills, they can ask for the information in layman’s terms and get what they need, along with the supporting documentation. The same approach supports scope analysis and submittal review. The goal isn’t to replace the meeting — it’s to make the team walk in ready.

At the booth, we’ll show how project Q&A, scope analysis, and submittal review work. We’d also like to hear which of those tasks eats the most time on your projects.

360-Degree Documentation: Bringing the Jobsite into Focus

A standard photo shows one angle at one moment. A 360-degree capture records the whole space, so people who can’t be on site still see what surrounds a condition. Four situations show where it matters most:

• Reviewing Remotely
  An owner’s representative in another city walks the second floor from a laptop before approving a change, instead of waiting for the next site visit.
• Comparing Progress
  A project engineer opens this week’s capture beside last month’s and sees exactly which framing and rough-in work finished in between.
• Locating Issues
  When a crew flags a conflict, the capture shows the problem in its surroundings, so the designer knows where to look and what it touches.
• Keeping a Record
  During closeout, information captured in a tagged drawing shows what’s in walls and above ceilings. This helps answer questions concerning inspections, warranty and future renovation work.

Capture only helps if teams shoot on a regular schedule, organize the files and link them to the rest of the project record. Lens360 supports that by connecting AI-powered reality capture with BIM, and gives teams a way to review conditions, track progress, and document the site as it’s built.

Mixed Reality with Oculus: Understanding Spaces in New Ways

Plans and screen-based models have long been the dominant way to communicate models. Most people can’t interpret scale and other spatial relationships from plan views.

An Oculus can put a stakeholder in a BIM model and let them see space at full scale. An owner can tell if a corridor feels narrow. The designer and the VDC lead can agree on clearance for a piece of equipment without reading a number off a plan. A subcontractor can walk through the sequence before the work begins.

Want to know more about how this might be used on your projects? Ask our team about an Oculus walkthrough.

What to Expect at Booth #131

Each construction project presents unique obstacles. Sometimes, teams need a clearer picture of a project’s progress. Other times, teams need a better way to capture or analyze project data. Still, other times, teams need to streamline coordination between design and construction teams.

Each of these represents an opportunity for our industry to leverage technology to help us be better partnering teams. At DBIA 2026, look for examples of technology that can help us address these needs and work together to build better projects.

Let’s Build a Smarter Future Together

Visit iFieldSmart AI at Booth #131 for an interactive discussion on how technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), 360 field Documentation, and VDC & Mixed Reality Immersion via Oculus can help find new ways to build smarter, more efficient, and more collaborative projects.

We’d like to hear your ideas! Have them ready? Come by Booth #131 and say hi. Let’s talk and develop ways to create smarter, more connected projects.

We look forward to connecting with you at DBIA 2026!
