Improving lifecycle performance
Our systems and innovations collect vast quantities of data, undertake complex analysis, and share real or near real-time information in visual form.
Our Project Data Structure (PDS) – a consistent approach to coding and mapping data – enables us to connect our systems, applications, devices, and workflows across our capabilities and project lifecycle phases.
With connected technologies, our teams make better data-based decisions and forecasts, capture progress and resource usage in real time, and compare planned to actual schedule and cost performance – improving delivery and operational reliability, predictive maintenance, and ESG outcomes.
Here are just some of the integrated digital solutions, developed or enhanced in-house, that are improving lifecycle performance and outcomes. We are using technologies including virtual and augmented reality, automation, simulation, reality capture, Internet of Things and developing proprietary solutions.
Planning and design
Digital innovation in areas such as planning, estimating and procurement are adding whole of life value and setting our projects up for success.
Active 4D Planning
Our Active 4D Planning process enables teams to build a project’s program, directly from a 3D BIM model, commencing at tender initiation.
Generating the initial project program in 4D, much earlier in the tender process than current industry practice, gives teams more time to explore options and develop safer, sustainable solutions.

Operations
Proprietary digital solutions such as Integra and Sedgmetrix are improving asset performance and optimization through Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystems and advances such as automation, remote monitoring, and data-driven prediction.INTEGRA®
Infrastructure such as roads, rail, utilities and smart cities require a range of complex digital subsystems, such as ventilation, signalling, fire detection, security and communications, to operate effectively.
UGL's INTEGRA®, a state-of-the-art Operations Management and Asset Optimisation Platform, integrates and streamlines operations management, digitally enabling critical infrastructure to operate safely, and sustainably.
