Digital transformation

We are using digital technology to help us achieve our ambitions: smarter design, faster decision-making, more efficient construction.
It will also help us reduce our environmental impact and anticipate changes in usage patterns.

We are investing in the ongoing development of connected and interoperable tools, with:

• the integration of predictive AI solutions to help us anticipate risks,
• the analysis of site data,
• stronger collaborative platforms to improve multi-stakeholder coordination,
• extended use of digital twins across the entire life cycle of our structures.

From the engineering office to the field, we use a number of varied and complementary solutions such as parametric design, digital twins, 2D/3D prefabrication, remote logistics, advanced flow analysis and energy simulation to achieve a combination of quality, productivity and efficiency, while factoring in safety, sustainability and long-term performance requirements.

Data is an outstanding asset for progress on our construction sites.
When accurately collected, analysed and interpreted, it enables us to improve quality, safety and performance, as well as to anticipate risks and improve team coordination.

With the help of computer vision, sensors, automation and artificial intelligence, our real-time monitoring, proactive detection of deviations, traceability of operations and on-site decision-making have become more effective, making project management more responsive, reliable and transparent for everyone involved.

We are exploring a wide range of immersive technologies, including generative design, hybrid modelling and augmented BIM.
These technologies enable us to optimise the use of materials, factor in the carbon footprint from the design stage, better coordinate the different trades, streamline communication and reduce lead times.

Tools such as virtual reality, parametric configurators, digital twins, interactive simulations and collaborative online environments help us at every stage of the project to understand, test, refine and adapt our designs.
They are also useful for team training, client validation and consideration of local and environmental issues.

Digital twins give us the ability to build a structure virtually before constructing it in reality. Replicating the structure makes each stage more reliable, enabling us to anticipate contingencies and to optimise coordination between all those involved.

Digital twins also make the design process more agile, collaborative and scalable, encouraging better communication between architects, engineers and on-site teams. Consequently, we can identify errors and limitations at an earlier stage, reducing delays and additional costs.

We also use digital twins for prefabrication, robotic operations and quality control, covering all stages of the life cycle, from the initial design to ongoing maintenance.

By combining data, Building Information Modelling (BIM) and on-the-ground reality, the digital twin serves as a powerful lever for efficiency, sustainability and innovation, while also promoting transparency and collaborative efforts among all project stakeholders.
