Highlights:

  • The future of delivering large complex infrastructure & industrial projects are fundamentally dependent on data and efficient & effective movement of data between disparate systems and applications.
  • Sydney Water Southern Region project is an example of the successful integration of disciplines of Software Engineering, Project Management, and Design Engineering for data-driven project delivery.
  • The Digital Transformation path will define “the project of the future” with special attention to Design philosophy and technology selection, Data-centric execution, and smooth transition into Operations, maintenance, and reliably.
  • Digitalisation is also key to reducing Operational Cost by prolonging asset life and reliability, increasing the effectiveness of project management and de-risking project lifecycle. The use of Digital Twins to model complex asset information and transform the typical engineering, operation, maintenance, and interaction with the asset.
  • Real-time practices and digital tools including the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) / Machine Language (ML) further enhance asset reliability information, getting a better handle of known asset and equipment lifespan that enable effective preventive maintenance and optimize shutdown planning.


Case Study: Sydney Water Southern Region Project: Data-driven integrated approach to project delivery

This presentation will illustrate how Sydney Water accelerated its journey to a more data-driven integrated approach to project delivery by outsourcing the construction and maintenance of Sydney’s Southern Region to a Joint Venture.

This approach provided an opportunity to re-imagine and re-design the entire approach for data management, systems integration, project controls, and project management. From the outset, this ongoing project is designed to be scalable, portable, and transferable - branded as ‘Project-in-a-Box’.


Learning Outcomes:

  • Different emerging digital trends in the lifecycle of Energy and Industrial projects.
  • How digitalisation can be integrated at any phase of the project to improve project outcomes.
  • Gain an understanding of the roles and importance of having a well-considered solutions architecture, systems integration, flow and capture of data in delivering efficient projects.
  • Understand the challenges in bringing traditional approaches together to Project Management with Software Engineering & Design Engineering.
  • How digitalisation improves the speed and quality of decision making across the entire organisation by providing the right information at the right time and how Digital Twins can be useful in brownfield environments for industrial and energy projects.

After attending this webinar, you will be able to:

  • Appreciate the importance, challenges and best practice of a data-driven approach;
  • Identify the key skills and expertise required to deliver more successful projects;
  • Adapt and embrace a new approach to Brownfield project delivery / to approach digitalisation in infrastructure projects;
  • Identify the key components in the setup and operation of a Digital Management Office (DMO);
  • How to prepare for a new norm in construction.

Presentation and Discussion Method:
Panel discussion and presentation held via Zoom.
