Project summary

As part of Liverpool’s City Dock Development plan, a new stadium is being built on an existing dock, providing the English Premier Football League team a new home to host club games for their fan base across the globe. The scope of the project includes building a 52,888-seat stadium within tight logistical confinements while paying respect to the local heritage. It necessitated off-site prefabrication works that required precise planning and coordination to avoid costly project delays. Laing O’Rourke, the principal contractor, sought to implement a 4D digital construction approach to deliver the project on time and within budget. 
 
Having already used SYNCHRO to win the project bid, Laing trusted SYNCHRO to help meet project goals, increase communication across the entire project team, and effectively plan and execute construction works. The 4D model was fundamental to the team’s collaboration, enabling multiple disciplines to work together to submit the project ahead of schedule and within budget. Successfully working in a collaborative 4D digital environment optimized project delivery and has transformed how Laing will deliver complex construction projects in the future.
