Digital Construction - A change in tides
“The construction sector is one of the least digitized sectors and productivity has stagnated in recent years,” said Frédéric Gal, Programme Director of Business Transformation at Bouygues Construction.
While this is the case, the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry is now at the precipice of transformation. Pressed with increasing demands for speed, sustainability, and personalisation, industry leaders have started to rethink traditional methods to deliver more value. Reacting quickly to issues and limiting project costs and budget overruns are crucial to project success.
At TriMech Enterprise Solutions, we've been supporting businesses that are embracing digital transformation to bring new, innovative solutions to the industry. We are here to help you get from where you are now, to where you want to be, working with you to close the gap in between through innovative software, solutions, and services.
a new direction
Driving the New Era of Digital Construction
Sustainable Construction
In order to adhere to new regulations and achieve sustainable construction, AEC collaborators must:
- Design 'Cradle-to-Cradle' Systems
- Reduce Waste
- Source Local, Energy-Efficient Materials
- Analyze the Full Lifecycle Impact
- Build more Efficiently
Better Built Environment
To meet customer expectations while scalably delivering optimal occupant experiences, construction teams must:
- Design Sustainable Spaces
- Support Customization
- Deliver Affordable Housing
- Develop Faster than Ever
- Adapt to Unique Requirements at each Site
End Industry Fragmentation
In order to ensure time to build, supply chain resilience and business continuity, construction industry leaders are challenged to:
- Stay Relevant in a Changing Industry
- Digitize Trade-Based and Regional Knowledge
- Adapt to Unique Requirements on each Site
- Simulate and Optimize Downstream Processes
- Minimize Waste, Errors, and Omissions
THE SHIFT TO DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURE & ASSEMBLY
Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) is how innovators will rise to meet unprecedented construction industry challenges. Owner-operators, urban planners, architects, engineers and building product manufacturers are cultivating a clear competitive advantage through DfMA methods.
The 4 fundamental shifts enabling DfMA to take hold in construction are:
- From off-site construction to automated manufacturing
- From trade-based installations to modularized assemblies
- From static design data to continuous integration
- From customization to configuration
Client Story
Bouygues Construction:
From BIM to virtual twin with 3DEXPERIENCE
Bouygues Construction has deployed 3DEXPERIENCE to drive its digital transformation and improve the productivity of its construction projects. They collaborated to adopt 3D model-based working principles and define every interface among all disciplines from the onset of each project within a virtual environment, using the Integrated Built Environment and Building Design for Fabrication industry solutions on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud.
“The objective of the virtual twin is to deliver on the promise of construction before construction, it means we can adjust all the irregularities that we imagine and have a model that is really constructible and to avoid mistakes when we are on site. Once the design is finished and executed, questions are no longer raised about its integrity.”
