Technology in spotlight at open day

Cutting-edge technology was in the spotlight when Three Sixty Design Solutions threw open the doors of its Chichester office.

The multi-disciplinary firm welcomed contractors, consultants, clients and guests for a showcase of its range of property-related professional services.

Visitors donned virtual reality headsets, watched a live drone display in the grounds of the firm’s office and viewed state-of-the-art FARO laser scanners for 3D point cloud data collection and digital twin visualisation.

The open day also featured interactive demonstrations to showcase Three Sixty Design Solutions’ expertise in net carbon zero, computer aided facilities management (CAFM) integration and innovative software systems, including Autodesk Revit and GoReport.

Three Sixty Design Solutions’ disciplines are architectural services, building surveying, structural engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical and fire engineering, specialist surveying, and project management and contract administration.

Managing director Gareth Pryce, who leads the business with directors Simon Avery and Harvey Ford, said: “Many thanks to all who made our open day such a great success.

“We have placed technology at the heart of all our disciplines to ensure we can deliver the highest quality and most innovative professional services to our clients in support of their projects.”

“Ultimately the aim is to drive business growth for all parties, while providing the greatest service for clients, lead technological adoption within the industry and support the UK and local economies.”

Department leaders showcased expertise for visitors at stations throughout Three Sixty Design Solutions offices at Hills Barn in Apuldram.
