The First Step to a Successful Modular Project? Having the Right Tools

Your Shortcut to Safer, Faster Modular Projects

For heavy industrial project teams exploring modular construction for the first time, the potential benefits are clear—faster schedules, enhanced safety, and reduced overall costs. But without the right tools and guidance, getting started can be overwhelming.

That’s where DyCat Solutions comes in. DyCat offers a set of structured, easy-to-use toolkits designed specifically to help teams adopt modular construction with confidence. These toolkits simplify planning, standardize processes, and guide you through every phase, from front-end design to site installation, commissioning, and start-up.

What Are DyCat Solutions' Modular Construction Toolkits?

DyCat Solutions’ toolkits are comprehensive resources built to support the full lifecycle of modular heavy industrial projects. Each toolkit includes:

• Guidelines for best practices and modular strategies

• Templates to standardize project documentation

• Checklists for scope verification and process assurance

• Flowcharts that clarify decision-making pathways

• Installation details to guide modular design and assembly

These toolkits are tailored across nine critical disciplines, empowering teams to manage complexity with clarity.

Toolkit Coverage Across Nine Disciplines

DyCat’s modular toolkit is purpose-built - developed with over 200 years of combined subject matter expertise - to support heavy industrial projects across all major project functions:

1. Project Management

Strategic tools to plan, execute, and oversee modular project phases with clarity and control.

2. Project Controls

Frameworks for planning and scheduling, and estimating cost to improve accuracy and project predictability.

3. HSE & Quality

Safety protocols and quality assurance checklists to ensure regulatory and corporate compliance.

4. Engineering and Design

Tools and guides to support the engineering, design, and coordination of modular projects—ensuring collaboration across disciplines and integration of modularization principles.

5. Supply Chain

Guides and tools to help supply chain teams understand the unique requirements of modular execution—focusing on early engagement, modular-driven procurement strategies, and coordination of long-lead items, and vendor-supplied modules.

6. Contract Management

Resources for drafting and executing clear, enforceable modular contracts and scopes of work.

7. Transportation & Logistics

Guidelines that define clear roles and responsibilities across the logistics chain, along with tools to develop detailed scopes of work and contract requirements for the safe, efficient transport and delivery of modules.

8. Fabrication, Assembly and Site Construction

Fabricability, constructability and path of construction guides, supported by detailed workflows and checklists, to ensure accurate fabrication, efficient assembly, and high-quality execution throughout the modular build and installation process.

9. Commissioning and Start-up

Comprehensive guide and a roles and responsibilities matrix to support the successful transition from module installation to operational readiness.
