Finalist

As an international owner-operator company that executes capital projects across the entire lifecycle, Dow applies advanced work packaging (AWP) best practices on capital projects above USD 10 million. They considered several software packages for AWP and originally used an initial version of ConstructSim successfully on a pilot project.Wanting to improve processing time and data availability in the field, which required upgraded technology capabilities to streamline workflows and data sharing, they implemented an updated version of ConstructSim across 15 projects throughout the United States and Canada. The software’s new features drastically decreased model processing time and execution of work packages by one-third. Having more frequent current models, project personnel can more efficiently plan two to four weeks ahead of construction works, significantly reducing rework in the field, saving time and money, and reducing safety risks. Bentley’s AWP solution is now ingrained into Dow’s global project methodology and has become part of their normal workflow.
