ANZ count and with it our costs ,” Rosser a good illustration . It ’ s unusual says . “ Again , if we want to implement in tunnelling but developing new capabilities we are quickly an intelligent 3D model in this able to deploy them . And we can case will lead to more efficient be strategically focused rather than planning , design and construction . operationally . That is where we start “ It shows how it will look and talking about AI and machine learning how it will perform ,” Rosser and predictive analytics and building adds . “ It gives a foundation for a digital engineering capability .” our future capabilities too , and

The standard methodology things like design reviews , for making a business safety training ; and also case by PowerPoint provision for training to is giving way to AI ensure emergency and predictive readiness . With this analytics , and Rosser wants SMC to be the leader in technology and innovation to create new opportunities and business optimisation . He understands that people can be wary of adopting new methods , but finds that once the value of those outcomes is explained , and how they enable a knowledge-based workforce to focus on the tasks that they need to be doing , they soon become as enthusiastic as he is .

Building the world ’ s longest fourlane tunnel for the New M5 provides

3D model people can start preparing , visualising and understanding the asset from an operational perspective .

Then there ’ s maintenance training and planning so when they come to do it for real a lot of time will be saved .”

A ‘ digital twin ’ of the motorway can encompass trillions of potential scenarios . SMC is creating a 3D replica model of the entire asset that will be invaluable for managing the motorway and predicting how it will perform in
