It is essential that data standards are open and that collaborative tools are used. This stops people from being locked into certain platforms, proprietary formats and solutions and allows flexibility and adaptability throughout both the project and lifecycle of the asset.
Teams need access to the latest data and drawings at all times, so connected working in the cloud is a must. This ensures that work is completed accurately and any changes or issues are flagged early.
Technology is having a big impact with existing assets too. Point cloud surveys are being used to scope out and measure infrastructure to support ongoing repair and maintenance works. This data capture can be done from a distance, helping with health and safety and improving speed, delivering a digital version of the asset that can be used to guide projects.
The key challenge in major projects is scale. The workforce is spread across multiple locations, different disciplines use different tools and many companies have their own workflows, some of which may still be paper-based. But, by getting the principles and technology right, companies can realize a wealth of benefits, delivering projects with better margins and improved outcomes.
