Finalist

As part of a joint venture, Arcadis is delivering design for permanent works along the C2 and C3 sections of the High Speed 2 (HS2) project that will improve connectivity and capacity between London and Birmingham. Spanning 80 kilometers with 4,346 physical assets comprising 900 gigabytes of data, the project presented challenges managing and delivering design information, prompting Arcadis to automate methods for creating design files and autonomously onboarding designers into the new system.

Already familiar with ProjectWise, Arcadis established an automated process to retrieve information from their master information delivery project system, utilize it within Bentley’s connected data environment, and create designer accounts to enable immediate accessibility to the new system. The innovative use of Bentley applications for controlling file creation improved quality of deliverables, saved 5,000 resource hours on repetitive tasks, and provided greater insight into project information and progress. The new configuration has led to more projects adopting ProjectWise and capitalizing on the added available insights.
