Mani Golparvar (Reconstruct), Cindy Baldwin (VDCO Tech), Amir Hamaoui (Reconstruct), and Henrik Ljungberg (Skanska) discuss the construction applications of a digital-twin project controls system that:
a) brings visibility to project stakeholders and improves understanding of how construction performance can be captured, communicated, and analyzed in the form of a production system;
b) predicts the reliability of the project schedules, supports root-cause assessment on plan failure;
c) facilitates information flows; and
d) decentralizes decision-making.
Case studies with measurable ROI are shared and the benefit of this system to enable learning from project to project as the basis of improving design and planning will be discussed in detail.
