ConstructiVision¶

ConstructiVision is an AutoCAD-embedded workflow aimed at concrete / tilt-up drafting and production.

Executive Dashboard¶

Current Phase¶

P1: Analysis & Setup (In Progress) | P1B: Installer Development (Started Early)

Overall Status¶

🟢 Green — P0 validation complete; Installer rebuild sprint started Jan 21
Confidence: High — Installer decompiled (4,163 lines); legacy environment baselined

Upcoming 30/60/90 Days¶

30 days: Complete InstallShield rebuild; v3.60/v7.0 gap analysis; VLX recompile
60 days: WiX PoC complete; basic MSI working
90 days: Installer complete; begin P2 Design Improvement phase

Top 3 Risks¶

R8 Windows compatibility — UAC/registry issues in modern Windows; testing in P1B critical
R10 Code refactoring breaks workflows — Regression tests mandatory before changes
R17 Solo developer burnout — Maintain realistic pace; phased approach

Next 3 Milestones¶

Feb 24 — P1 Analysis Complete 🟡 Yellow — Gap analysis in progress
Mar 21 — P1B Installer Complete ⬜ Planned — WiX MSI distributable
May 31 — P2 Design Improvement Complete ⬜ Planned — v26 baseline locked

About ConstructiVision¶

ConstructiVision is a specialized AutoCAD add-in designed for concrete and tilt-up construction professionals. It streamlines the design-to-production workflow by automating:

Panel Design & Layout — Intelligent panel positioning and dimension management
Connection Details — Bolts, dowels, welds, and other connection specifications
Construction Documentation — Automated drawing generation, panel books, and engineering exports
Material & Cost Tracking — Real-time inventory and project cost management
Database Integration — Links with project and inventory management systems

The modern version (2026+) is being rebuilt from the legacy v3.60 codebase with cloud capabilities, AI-assisted form filling, and a modernized UI. The legacy archive documents the original implementation and can be useful for understanding the product logic and historical decisions.
