Work on existing infrastructure projects like the M25 in the UK demonstrates the ability of Aconex to bring continuity and stability . Announced in the summer of 2017 , Aconex partnered with Connect Plus to strengthen the highway asset care of one of the longest city bypass routes in the world ( 188km ), used by more than 200,000 vehicles each day , helping to fulfil NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract projects ranging in value up to £ 10m .
“ With Aconex , we will extend collaboration deeper into the contractor environment and use the platform for day-to-day
communications with stakeholders , including monthly reports of key performance indicators ( KPIs ) to our community ,” says Simon Wilkinson , Commercial Manager for the M25 programme at Connect Plus . “ The contractors will have vertically integrated views of all their projects through a live dashboard and be able to control access to their data in a secure environment . They can also mine their data to improve productivity and quality while controlling costs . Innovation is at the forefront of everything we do , and the Aconex platform will take us to the next level in empowering our community .”
