Engineering, Construction, and Operations
Digital, connected construction
Why digitalize? Think real-time visibility, automatic time tracking, smooth intercompany collaboration, fully connected job sites – and more.
Construction collaboration and BIM
Collaboration and building information modeling (BIM) mitigates risk – from bigger projects to eco concerns to construction complexity.
Supply chain challenges
Connected supply chains and smart prefab construction can solve material shortages and reduce labor costs while improving timelines.
Engineering and construction sustainability
Construction generates 25% to 40% of the world’s carbon emissions. Reduce your footprint by adding sustainability to your selection criteria alongside cost and quality.
New engineering and construction technology
The world wants smart buildings. What will you need in your tool kit? AI, augmented reality, automation, analytics, BIM, and the IIoT.
Construction labor shortage
How are companies meeting labor shortages? By digitalizing, automating, and turning smart prefabrication into a differentiator.
