Plan, manage and execute capital projects efficiently

Combine human ingenuity with data and AI to deliver large-scale projects on time and within budget, while also achieving broader investment and sustainability objectives.

Why reinvent capital projects?

Government policies, manufacturing shifts, energy transition and aging infrastructure mean project demand is surging. Yet with siloed operations, workforce challenges and fragmented processes, owners are struggling to deliver projects that meet project objectives. By combining strategy, data and utilizing direct support on the ground you can address today’s challenges and help build a better world for the future.

9 of 10

construction projects have cost overruns — regularly up to 50%

11%

of every dollar on a large-scale project is wasted, due to poor project performance

47%

of infrastructure and capital project performance data is still collected in paper forms or spreadsheets

How AI is changing infrastructure and capital projects

AI can get you closer to ‘on time’ and ‘on budget’

Imagine having reliable insights for quick decision making. Or automation that improves efficiency in contracts, workflows, and reporting. Picture being able to test different design and execution options to perfect plans and solve construction issues before starting work onsite. Think about the added security from better compliance and risk detection. AI provides the necessary support to deliver project performance.

Assess your people, processes, governance, technology and data practices to identify quick wins and areas for efficiency and growth. Develop a roadmap and drive alignment to help reach your project, program and operational goals.
