CRATE Tackles LA’s Affordable Housing Crisis and Manages Production, Quality and Labor With Offsight
Los Angeles is currently experiencing a massive shortage in affordable homes. The government estimates that this stands around 500,000 units across the city. In California as whole the shortage was estimated to be as high as 3,000,000 – 4,000,000 homes as of 2017. The solution to this crisis seems evident, produce more homes quicker. But in practicality undertaking this new construction is much more difficult.  

Offsight customer CRATE Modular has an answer. Their structural steel modules are uniquely suited for multifamily housing and paired with their expertise and consultative approach they can rapidly reduces the time to complete a new affordable multifamily project. CRATE works with affordable housing developers from the early design phase, through permitting, manufacturing and installation of their products. In this manner, they can ensure from the start that all multifamily affordable housing projects they undertake will be built professionally and effectively when they enter factory production.
CRATE Modular utilizes Offsight’s software to visualize their entire production process in a simple digital workflow. Through Offsight, CRATE can effectively manage their production and delivery and track and control variable project costs including quality/rework and labor.
With soaring jobsite construction costs resulting in over-priced housing, owners who are going offsite expect to build  housing more quickly and cost effectively. Managing production costs from the factory floor is a vital step in ensuring that CRATE’s multifamily projects can be built at an affordable price.  
Offsight is their go-to solution to help track and manage variable production and labor costs which can detract from project profitability and ultimately the affordability of the multifamily modules themselves.
