Our Digital Construction Manager, Robert Dickson, was recently invited to share his insights at the Digital Twin Leaders Summit organised by the Construction Industry Council (CIC) in Hong Kong.
Together with other leaders in this area, he spoke about Leighton Asia’s journey of successfully implementing digital twins on our projects, and shared his views on the future of digital twin technology.
Our implementation of digital twins includes virtual representations of real assets, real-time data integration, virtual interaction with assets and a timestamped, as-built record of a project’s history. Our digital twin strategy supports our projects by improving analysis, decision-making, and forecasting, and mitigating risks and reducing waste. It also assists to improve safety, performance, and outcomes.
Our recent award of the Shek Wu Hui Sewage Treatment Works project by the Hong Kong Government’s Drainage Services Department will establish the first real-time online digital twin optimisation system, demonstrating our core capability in this innovative technology and our commitment to sustainable development.
