Award category criteria

Show how your use of the technology delivered improved outcomes for the organizations involved and the communities served.
Demonstrate how your use of technology delivered measurable results in the planning, design, and engineering of new road assets and the maintenance and inspection of road and highway networks.
Submissions should demonstrate use of Bentley applications, independently or combined with other software, across the project lifecycle. Eligible software includes OpenRoads, Bentley LumenRT, iTwin Capture, SYNCHRO, ProjectWise, MicroStation, iTwin, AssetWise, and SUPERLOAD.
Show what made your approach stand out. Consider: complex challenges, inventive solutions, techniques that go beyond standard practice, adaptable methods tailored to project constraints, and approaches others can learn from.
Detail how your project improved performance: stronger workflows and outcomes through interoperability and integration, connected data across phases and disciplines, better access and consistency for stakeholders, and greater efficiency in project delivery.
Provide quantified results: cost savings, time savings, resource optimization, and risk management.
Showcase impact on climate adaptation, disaster preparedness, energy savings, carbon reduction, improved resilience, quality of life, and mitigated risk.
Include high-quality visuals: images, screenshots, models, simulations, animations, charts, and diagrams. Provide quantitative data where applicable. Show how digital twins and AI advanced project delivery or asset performance.
