Market research and intelligence firm, Glenigan has won a four-year contract to provide Ordnance Survey (OS) with construction data.
Appointed following a rigorous tender process, Glenigan’s Change Intelligence Managed Service is expected to streamline OS’s data analysis processes, enabling production teams to capture changes more efficiently.
The relationship will enable OS to provide even more accurate, timely, and high-quality location data to its public and private sector customers.
Key benefits include:
- Enhanced insight: Linking Glenigan’s construction intelligence with OS address data to pinpoint site completion dates
- Change detection: Identifying updates not currently reflected in OS datasets
- Survey efficiency: Supporting site surveys with intelligence on key development stages
- Future trends: Delivering periodic reports on construction trends to optimise production planning
In supplying OS with construction data, Glenigan says it will deploy its portfolio of “powerful” services to deliver “exceptional” results.
The company, which is part of Hubexo, has over 160 global researchers and what it says are cutting-edge AI-backed tools, blending physical expertise with machine learning to provide up-to-date, comprehensive insights.
Robert Davis, global VP of project content at Hubexo, said, “Winning this contract is a testament to the experience and skill of our highly connected research team. As supplier of choice for Ordnance Survey, a world-renowned mapping authority, we remain committed to providing the highest-quality insight and intelligence available. It underscores Glenigan’s leadership in construction data and our focus on driving innovation and efficiency for our clients.”
Richard Tyrrell, senior production manager at Ordnance Survey, added, “‘OS is globally trusted for the accuracy of its location data, and so the award of this contract to Glenigan makes perfect sense to strengthen our ability to deliver precise and reliable information.
