Summary

BEELINE is PCL’s proprietary digital platform that transforms manual field-run tray routing into a data-driven, semi-automated process—enhancing productivity, reducing rework and enabling early work packaging across industrial projects.

Problem

Major projects have enormous electrical scopes that are traditionally challenged by the final steps of routing raceway and cable. Industry trends towards delegated design and more frequent changes cause delays, lost productivity and communication challenges between contractors, designers and project proponents. BEELINE addresses this by intelligently automating tray routing, enabling early constructability reviews and reducing reliance on manual planning. It tackles emergent challenges like labor shortages, compressed schedules, and evolving designs by shifting scope planning earlier in the project lifecycle and enabling proactive decision-making.

Solution

BEELINE uses state-of-the-art art algorithms and proprietary workflows to automate cable routing, validate tray fill rates, and generate actionable field packages. It integrates engineering data and custom-produced, work-package specific 3D models to produce optimized routing plans—even when cable schedules are incomplete. The platform enables early tray installation, reduces start-stops, and supports continuous improvement through iterative route validation and clash detection. Construction teams can visualize, validate and de-risk installation well in advance of field work.
