Build for Care,
with Confidence
- Keep all trades aligned and ensure that MEP systems, medical equipment, and structural components fit exactly as designed.
- Mitigate clashes before they become costly delays by printing multi-trade layouts in a single step.
- Ensure compliance with strict healthcare regulations and evolving equipment specifications with layouts that reflect any design updates.
- Enhance collaboration between trade contractors, medical equipment suppliers, and healthcare owners by providing a common reference directly on the jobsite floor.
Multi-trade layout helped Skanska shave 3 months off the schedule
"Collaboration with all trade partners (mechanical, electrical, plumbing, framing, and drywall) on layout strategy and responsibilities simultaneously, done via the use of Dusty Robotics, delivered the project nearly three months ahead of schedule at a cost savings of approximately $3 million for the client."
Quality Construction Saves Lives
- Drive the results healthcare project owners expect from their investment in design-build or Integrated Project Delivery (IPD).
- Reduce the risk of rework by ensuring medical gas lines, surgical booms, and imaging equipment are installed exactly as planned.
- Prevent misalignment across project phases in high-density areas like soffits, ceilings, and interstitial spaces where rework is difficult and costly.
- Keep healthcare facilities operational and reduce downtime with renovations and expansions that align perfectly with existing infrastructure.

“Dusty brings all the trades together. From the warehouse to the jobsite, everything was coordinated—wall openings, access panels, door tags, finishes, you name it. With everything printed directly on the floor, trades didn’t have to chase down drawings, they could just look at the ground and know exactly what to do.”
Accelerate Construction, Enhance Patient Care
- Accelerate project schedules by reducing the duration of layout tasks, ensuring surgical suites, patient rooms, and imaging centers are ready sooner.
- Set up installation teams to work rapidly, accurately, and in parallel place their work, by providing accurate and fully-coordinated layout augmented with other actionable information, visible to everybody at all times.
- Support prefabrication strategies for patient care units, imaging suites, and offices with highly accurate on- and off-site layouts.
- Reduce the duration of critical-path layout tasks that interrupt other construction operations with fast automated layout of multiple trades at the same time.
- Keep projects on track despite regulatory changes or procurement delays or last-minute medical equipment updates.

Skanska: Sutter Health Surgery Center
"What's really excited me is the collaboration between different systems, different trade teams."
Truebeck: Life Sciences Research Facility
"With Dusty we’re able to have everybody work together and we can see if there are issues with layout points in the CAD before we lay them out in the field."
Frequently asked questions
Automated layout significantly reduces the time required for layout tasks, allowing construction teams to meet aggressive hospital opening schedules and minimize disruptions to patient care. By quickly and accurately marking layouts for multiple trades simultaneously, crews can begin work sooner and keep projects on track. Faster layout also means less downtime waiting for clarifications or corrections, expediting overall project timelines.
By printing multiple trades' layouts at once, automated layout prevents costly clashes between MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing), medical equipment, and structural elements, ensuring smooth project execution. This ensures that ductwork, gas lines, electrical, and medical equipment placements are perfectly aligned, reducing conflicts during installation. It also improves communication between trades, avoiding last-minute design adjustments that can cause costly delays.
By providing a highly accurate, full-scale reference on-site, Dusty Robotics ensures that healthcare owners, architects, engineers, and contractors all work from the same information, reducing confusion and miscommunication. This transparency leads to better decision-making and fewer construction delays.This helps keep all stakeholders – whether they work on research facilities or outpatient clinics – aligned throughout the project lifecycle.
Yes. Automated layout aligns construction expansions and renovations with existing infrastructure and buildings, preventing misalignment and minimizing downtime for operational healthcare facilities. Whether adding a new wing, repurposing existing space, or upgrading critical systems, precise layout integration ensures that renovations fit seamlessly within the hospital's established footprint, avoiding service disruptions.
Hospitals must adhere to stringent building codes, infection control standards, and equipment spacing requirements. Automated layout ensures that installations remain compliant with these regulations. By providing a precise, full-scale reference directly on the jobsite floor, automated layout minimizes risk and ensures that regulatory spacing and clearances are maintained from the start.
Dusty Robotics is ideal for a wide range of healthcare projects, including hospitals, outpatient clinics, imaging centers, surgical centers, research laboratories, and specialized care facilities. Whether constructing a new facility or expanding an existing one, the FieldPrint Platform’s automated layout technology ensures precise coordination of complex medical systems, MEP trades, and architectural elements, reducing errors and improving efficiency across all project types.
