Improve jobsite experience
With vertical transportation inside the building, workers and materials can be moved more efficiently compared to external hoists — reducing waiting times, improving safety, and creating a more efficient construction site.
Making construction as smooth as it can be
KONE construction time solutions make it easier, safer, and faster to move people and materials on site — helping you finish construction faster and with less stress.
KONE Construction Acceleration Solutions - KONE Corporation
Save valuable construction time, every day
No building site runs perfectly to plan. What if you could shorten your construction schedule by weeks — or even months — reduce scheduling risks, and improve safety for your workers?
Typically, less than 30% of workers’ time during construction adds direct value to the project, with vertical logistics being a major bottleneck for efficient and smooth workflows. KONE’s solutions for improved construction logistics can help your project get delivered as smoothly as possible by making it easier, safer and faster to move people and materials.
Keep your project moving, from the ground up
Less waiting, more working
Optimize the flow of traffic on your site by moving workers and materials around the building more efficiently — complete with planning support to help you select the right solution.
Remove everyday frustrations
Reduce downtime and prevent issues before they happen with AI-powered predictive maintenance available 24/7 — so your construction elevators stay operational and your workers keep moving without disruption.
Plan for project success
From technicians to project managers, KONE supports your project with planning expertise, tools, and processes, helping everyone involved achieve the best possible end result.
KONE construction time solutions
Construction time use
Construction time use of building’s own elevator
The building’s permanent passenger elevator, protected by cladding, is used throughout construction. It transports workers and materials inside the building instead of using external hoists, making vertical transportation faster, safer, and more cost-efficient.
When construction is complete, the cladding is removed, revealing the finished, pristine elevator car. In most cases, it is already ready for building users. For larger elevators, final interior design elements are then finalized.
Digital logistics platform
Smarter site management with KONE SiteFlow
KONE SiteFlow is a digital construction logistics management tool that maximizes the efficiency of your construction elevators and hoists. It gives site managers real-time visibility and control over key operations — helping reduce waiting times and keeping workers productive. When integrated with KONE JumpLift™, it can expand elevator capacity by 15% and has been shown to reduce floor cycle times from 2.5 weeks to just 4 days in some projects.
Self-climbing elevator
Start moving earlier with KONE JumpLift™
KONE JumpLift™ enables early use of the elevator shaft in high-rise buildings of 10 floors or more, even before the building reaches full height. A self-climbing construction elevator, it grows with the structure and supports continuous vertical transport of people and materials — while providing greater load capacities and speeds than rack-and-pinion hoists. It operates regardless of weather conditions and allows the building façade to be closed sooner. Proven to cut construction time by weeks or even months — in one project, KONE JumpLift™ cut six months off the build schedule.
