ONGC Adds 10-15 Years Life to Existing Offshore Assets With Bentley SACS

Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) started its hunt for “Black Gold” in Indian waters in 1976 and is currently operating more than 265 offshore fixed jacket platforms in water depths ranging from 25 to 90 meters. Most of these platforms had a 25-year design life, with many of them having already outlived this milestone and many more approaching it. Additionally, modifications on many of the platforms have been made due to updated design criteria or because of revamping projects executed for enhanced oil recovery. As a result, the requalification of these structures was highly important to ensure continued oil production, thus sustaining the energy supply needed for the national growth. ONGC also wanted to avoid installing new platforms at a net cost of USD 25 million per platform.

ONGC invested USD 150 million to assess its jacketed platforms for extended “fit for use” and strengthen the platforms as required to meet industry safety requirements. ONGC used SACS for design-level analysis to carry out detailed structural analyses and SACS Collapse for ultimate strength analysis. This technology became part of ONGC’s methodology for platform life extension/requalification, which added 10-15 years to the average life of each structure.

The analysis included dent modeling, member/joint component strengthening, additional pile modeling, and soil convergence, as well as extensive load modeling to recommend equipment removal if necessary. SACS and SACS Collapse, with the efficient multi-run option, allowed multiple analyses with parametric variations to be carried out simultaneously and enabled ONGC to optimize the strengthening/mitigation measures, saving at least 12 resource-hours per platform. 

Dinesh Kumar-GGM, head structures, IEOT-ONGC, India, said, “The wide range of applications offered under the umbrella of Bentley technology has resulted in ONGC being able to manage our offshore assets much more efficiently.”

Owner-operator Banedanmark Aims to Deliver Denmark’s First High-speed Line On-time and On-budget Using State-of-the-art Technology

On May 18, 2010, the Danish Parliament passed an act approving the construction of a new dual track, electrified railway running from Copenhagen to Ringsted via Køge, Denmark. Capable of handling passenger train speeds of up to 250 kilometers per hour, the new line will be Denmark’s first high speed railway, and its largest rail project for many years. Responsibility for establishing the 60-kilometer line, which will include four tunnels, 88 bridges, and require the expropriation of around 290 hectares of land, fell to Banedanmark, Denmark’s national rail owner-operator. Its stated aim was to construct the line on time and within budget, setting a best-in-class example for all European rail projects, in a competitive market, using state-of-the-art technology. Construction of the new line commenced back in 2012 with completion scheduled for late 2018.

The Banedanmark team used an extensive list of Bentley software on the project including:

• ProjectWise, which helped ensure data could be shared between all parties involved across 20 different contracts on the project. The connected data environment provided by ProjectWise was split into pre-tender, post-tender, and as-built information, ensuring that only the right users had access to information relevant to their organization, contract, and role. This well-coordinated process resulted in contract costs that were 9.3 percent lower than estimated, and an overall budget saving for Banedanmark of 10 to 15 percent.
• MicroStation, chosen to ensure that all project information could be visualized within a comprehensive modeling environment. The flexibility offered by the DGN format and tools within MicroStation made it possible for the team to combine data generated using Bentley applications and third-party software for tasks including consistency and clash control, creation of multi-discipline sections or hypermodels, quantity takeoffs, quality checks, and high resolution visualizations and animations.
• Bentley Rail Track, used to create 3D models of the minimum infrastructure gauge. Built-in Danish design standards and validation enabled Banedanmark to create models and animations approximately 10 times faster than using other techniques.
• PowerCivil for Sweden, which enable the team to easily extract earthworks volumes. The 3D models were then used by the contractors for machine control, increasing the accuracy and speed of works. Finally, mapping functionality within PowerCivil for Sweden made it possible to exchange data with ArcGIS, Banedanmark’s GIS in operations and maintenance.

As a result of its achievements on the Copenhagen – Ringsted project, Banedanmark implemented a strategic project called The Digital Railway of Future. The project’s mission is to look at implementing the same methods and requirements on all construction projects in the future, and to explore the potential for using models and intelligent data generated during design and construction within asset management, implementing a whole lifecycle approach to BIM.

Gita Mohshizadeh, CAD manager, Banedanmark, said, “Bentley’s commitment to providing the tools necessary to support the whole lifecycle of assets and interoperability with other design and construction software means that Banedanmark’s project information is usable, well-coordinated, and well-documented.”

Improve Accuracy, Reduce Risk, and Accelerate Project Schedules with the Integration of Pipe and Offshore Structural Analysis

Structural engineers can now improve the accuracy of offshore plant designs, considerably reduce design iteration resource-hours, and accelerate project schedules with a higher degree of confidence in the safe operation of the final designed plant. Enabled through the round-trip exchange of pipe support loads and the visual coordination of critical piping systems in Bentley’s SACS and AutoPIPE applications, an integrated structural and pipe stress model provides a more accurate combined analysis model, and one that has been subjected to rigorous static and dynamic environmental loadings.  

On subsea or topside offshore structures supporting critical oil or gas piping systems, the actual real-world stiffness of the combined systems cannot be ignored. It can easily compromise the safe operation of the plant due to unforeseen higher pipe component stresses or extremely hazardous piping loads placed on equipment like pumps, compressors, or pressure vessels, which can lead to catastrophic failures.

Key new capabilities of the integration of AutoPIPE and SACS include:

• Transfer all deadweight, temperature, and environmental piping loads such as wave, wind, and earthquake loads to the structural design model, eliminating thousands of hours of error-prone manual data entry;
• Create fully connected piping and structural analysis models across hundreds of pipe support locations in a single operation to more accurately capture the sway and stiffness of the model;
• Combine single or multiple structures easily with single or multiple piping systems into one integrated 3D analysis model;
• Improve 3D visual coordination by piping and structural engineering groups to avoid costly design mistakes;
• Perform 3D clash detection under hot or cold deflected conditions to prevent even one key piping component moving and damaging essential equipment or structures.

Complex offshore fixed and floating platforms, particularly FPSOs, have a maze of structural, piping, and equipment. These large, billion-dollar plants typically have more than 10,000 pipe supports and 1,000 pipelines supported by hundreds of independent structures. These need to be located, designed, and fitted together in very tight spaces, presenting a significant challenge to be overcome in order to avoid costly installation and operational failures. SACS and AutoPIPE provide 3D geo-coordination of piping and structural systems enabling engineers to quickly deliver more accurate and safer designs. 

Phil Christensen, VP, analytical modeling, Bentley Systems, said, “This major enhancement to integration between AutoPIPE and SACS is just one part of our ongoing investment in software to bring mechanical and structural teams closer together for the benefit of the project. This is particularly important as global work sharing becomes the norm, and we can help automate workflows between disciplines across geographical boundaries.”

About AutoPIPE
AutoPIPE is a comprehensive, advanced application for pipe stress design and analysis that helps engineers produce the highest quality and safest engineered designs. It is suitable for nuclear plant design, which means engineers can ensure the highest safety standards possible. Fully interoperable with Bentley and third-party applications, engineers can analyze design scenarios faster and more comprehensively.  

About SACS
SACS helps engineers improve design quality and predict offshore structural performance using a unified analysis environment that enables the efficient exploration of alternatives. Users can streamline processes with automated structural workflows to apply specialized analyses essential to any offshore project. This includes nonlinear structural analysis and dynamic response analysis due to environmental loads, impact effects, and severe accidental loading. Operational safety is improved by allowing engineers to analyze ship impact and dropped objects, and minimize risk through offshore-specific load generation. Engineers can efficiently visualize complex structural response via interactive graphical review of analysis and fatigue, thus avoiding rework and potential project delays.

Morphosis Leverages Bentley BIM Advancements to Create Innovative, Iconic Building for Shenzhen, China

As the new icon for the Shenzhen high-tech industrial sector, the Hanking Center Tower is designed as an incubator for emerging technologies, providing space for rapidly growing, young firms with an innovative approach to circulation, social, and work spaces made possible by the tower’s unique offset core configuration. With high-end commercial office spaces anchored by a retail and dining hub in the podium, the tower serves Shenzhen’s growing body of global professionals and its slender design will redefine the Shenzhen skyline.

The form of the tower is primarily defined by its pioneering steel structural system, which offsets the primary movement and service cores to the exterior of the floorplate. Shifting the cores open the main body of the tower, significantly minimizing the building’s structural footprint while maximizing open space.

Based in the United States, Morphosis was hired as the design architect for this 350-meter-tall tower, and to provide the detailing and specifications for all the exterior envelope and public spaces throughout the building. Working closely with a U.S.-based engineering firm and a local Chinese-based design institute responsible for all contracting activities, Morphosis maintained a complete and up-to-date building information model (BIM) of the entire project. BIM is a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility, forming a reliable basis for decisions during its lifecycle. The building information model efficiently coordinates any required changes in the building geometry, or system details. Further, the comprehensive BIM strategy is being used to review and coordinate construction RFIs and shop drawing submittals from the general contractor and its sub-contractors.

This project used Bentley’s design modeling applications, including AECOsim Building Designer and MicroStation, to translate geometric and BIM data for use by other applications and allowed the team to focus on providing a highly detailed and well-developed building information model. This integrated process ensured that all key stakeholders were focused on developing the project in 3D instead of the traditional 2D documentation. Using Bentley Navigator and Bentley’s mobile apps, detailed 3D models are able to be shared among key stakeholders, enabling the team’s collective investment in a comprehensive building information model and allowing for a seamless workflow among the architect, project consultants, and subcontractors.

Cory Brugger, director of design technology, Morphosis, said, “The design and development of innovative buildings is dependent upon the quality of information and speed at which the project team can receive feedback from an iterative design process. We rely on the development of an integrated project BIM as a central part of this process. The reliability of Bentley’s products provided our design team with the tools necessary to successfully deliver the Hanking Center Tower. The success of this highly innovative, iconic skyscraper is supported by Bentley’s modeling platforms, which provided an environment for the development and communication of accurate and highly interoperable information for the multi-national team involved in the project.”

Ameren Builds $1.4 Billion Environmentally Sourced Transmission Line Project Using ProjectWise

Ameren Transmission is in the design and development phase of a project that will provide clean, renewable energy via transmission lines across the state of Illinois, linking Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana to wind power fields from the Midwest and the east coast of the United States. Construction remains on schedule for completion in 2019, with a total line length of approximately 350 miles. This project aligns with Ameren’s goal of providing reliable, efficient, and environmentally responsible energy. This is Ameren’s largest project in the past 30 years and required significant collaboration among project stakeholders and participants across the entire project.

The civil and transmission engineers working on the project needed consistency across the construction of fifteen new substations, as well as two major towers that span the Mississippi River, the busiest river in North America. To achieve their goals on this on the USD 1.4 billion project, Ameren leveraged Bentley’s ProjectWise to speed design and construction and ensure collaboration and project performance by integrating people, data, and processes throughout the project lifecycle. They also deployed MicroStation as the engineering design application for the engineers and consultants.

Among the challenges Ameren faced on this project was regulatory compliance. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) required Ameren to file its preliminary surveys and property rights documents to be eligible for the Clean Power Plan, as set out by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. State and federal legislative requirements were also needed for planning and design approvals of the detailed design. With the help of ProjectWise, Ameren was able to achieve these in record time. Other challenges included difficult terrain and height considerations for the two towers on either side of the Mississippi River and traffic congestion in and around the river that caused logistical issues that had to be factored into the construction phase.

Using ProjectWise’s connected data environment, Ameren ensured consistency across the supply chain, which streamlined workflows, reduced risk, and improved its design and construction phases. With managed workflows, and increasing transmittals and submittals as the project developed, Ameren gained significant levels of control over its engineering workflows realizing greater efficiency on the project. In addition to MicroStation, Ameren utilized other Bentley products such as GEOPAK, STAAD, RAM, and Bentley Descartes.

Mike Moore, engineering system administrator, Ameren Corporation, said, “Bentley’s project management and engineering tools allowed Ameren to build its new transmission line faster and more effectively to bring environmentally responsible energy sources to its customers and to the U.S. as a whole.”

A BIM Commitment Helps Los Angeles Community College District Deliver on this USD 6 Billion Project

The Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD) serves Los Angeles, California, USA, and its neighboring cities. It is the largest community college district in the United States and one of the largest in the world, educating more than 3 million students over the past 77 years. In the early 2000s, the state initiated several bond programs called Proposition A and AA and Measure J to expand the capacity and efficiency of the district while targeting a zero-energy usage. The propositions called for designing and constructing 50 new buildings and remodeling many other buildings. Proposition A and AA were traditional design-bid-build projects, while Measure J introduced a design-build with the requirement to take a BIM approach to designing and constructing the buildings.

Some of the unique challenges of the Measure J project included a large number of participants needing access to the same information across the project lifecycle. LACCD used more than 200 public and private firms for the construction and project management alone. To ensure collaboration, LACCD needed all its data to be managed in a common environment, adhering to standards and specifications that could ensure a successful project. For this USD 6 billion project, LACCD is leveraging Bentley’s ProjectWise to ensure collaboration and project performance by integrating people, data, standards, and processes throughout the project lifecycle. This strategy meant that all stakeholders, including architects, engineers, designers, construction managers, and consultants would have access to a single repository of information.

To maintain consistency, LACCD published Measure J BIM standards for models, drawings, specifications, photographs, and all other project information in 2011, and used ProjectWise as the connected data environment. i-models enabled the information flow of the BIM models and standards, ensuring data was exchanged without losing integrity or accuracy. Additionally, LACCD used Bentley Navigator for BIM review and issue resolution, which provided a 3D environment where project participants could better understand, review, and share feedback on a variety of ongoing designs. This strategy reduced time and costs and equated to a 12 percent savings in labor and USD 12 million in cost savings.

The BIM methodology allowed LACCD to incorporate solar energy and use low-cost electricity during off-peak hours, and helped reduce energy and ensure all buildings achieved at least a LEED Silver certification. LACCD could also confidently manage its documents and data as it adopted ongoing asset management strategies.

James Conway-Juarbe, maintenance and operations standards coordinator, LACCD, said, “Bentley’s ProjectWise provided us with the capability to coordinate over 3 million documents totaling 5 terabytes of data to give 500 project participants the latest controlled information on which to base confident action. The repository provides the base of documents for ongoing asset management.”

City of Helsinki Advances 3D City Initiative with Bentley’s Reality Modeling

The City of Helsinki is mid-way through an initiative to capture the city and create a new 3D city model that is scheduled to be completed in 2017. Helsinki has a long tradition of 3D city modeling, dating back to the 1980s. Helsinki wanted to update its current 3D city model with new, innovative applications that could provide entire city modeling capabilities in order to improve its internal services, promote smart city development, and share data through an open format for citizens and other agencies. Helsinki also wanted to create a pilot portfolio to showcase the power of reality modeling in coordination with local universities to generate interest in academic organizations.

This EUR 1 million project used Bentley applications to encourage commercial research and development and public engagement. For example, the city used Bentley Map to create accurate base maps and geo-coordinate utility networks. It also used Pointools to pre-process laser scanning data, Bentley Descartes to integrate oblique, raster files, and orthophotographic images into its infrastructure workflows, and Bentley Navigator for clash detection and design reviews. Reality modeling applications the city used included ContextCapture for the entire city mesh model and Bentley LumenRT to enliven designs. Lastly, the city used ProjectWise for collaboration and managing all the data that would be uploaded to a Web portal for distribution and general access.

The unique nature of this project ensured Helsinki would share data internally and externally. External agencies requesting the 3D city model included 3D Plus and 3D GPC – a flagship, low-carbon program that looks at the benefits of 3D modeling as opposed to other methods. Helsinki is also sharing this data with the Technical University of Munich as part of its Solar Energy Potential program.

By utilizing Bentley’s reality modeling applications, the City of Helsinki has opened up its data to a host of internal and external stakeholders. This has ensured Helsinki is at the forefront of smart city initiatives, including collaboration with the Open Geospatial Consortium on smart-city programs across Europe.  

Jarmo Suomisto, architect, project manager, Helsinki 3D+, said, “The advanced capabilities inherent in Bentley applications facilitated our ability to promote smart city development and improve our internal services. Using this technology allowed us to create innovative city models and make well-grounded decisions.”

Black & Veatch Transforms Project Delivery for the Energy Industry

In a multi-year plan jointly developed with Bentley, Black & Veatch’s Power and Oil and Gas businesses migrated from an in-house, proprietary plant design system to Bentley technology and transformed the company’s processes for engineering, procurement, and construction of power generation and oil and gas projects. Black & Veatch evaluated and modified current processes and procedures across all engineering disciplines and deliverables, trained professionals, and delivered the new methodology on a global scale across 10 design centers and 11 support offices in North America and Asia.

One early project success that resulted from this initiative was the Sewaren 7 power plant, now under construction in Woodbridge, New Jersey. The plant will provide 540 megawatts of power to the U.S. states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland using a high-efficiency, H-class combustion turbine. Black & Veatch is designing and constructing this USD 600 million power plant for the Public Service Enterprise Group (PSEG).

According to Shawn Foster, Black & Veatch commercial technology operations manager, Black & Veatch is using Bentley Navigator for cross-discipline reviews and interference management. The project team is also using AECOsim Building Designer and OpenPlant Modeler to exchange analysis data with various analysis tools including AutoPIPE. 2D data centric applications, such as OpenPlant P&ID and Bentley Instrumentation & Wiring, are being used for system design, intelligent reporting, and equipment design. This improvement allowed project professionals to access accurate, up-to-date information without the need to continuously check with other disciplines for information or to reenter information already entered in another application. It also enabled the team to create multi-discipline 3D review models for the client and collaborate around design alternatives.

Black & Veatch uses ProjectWise as the single source of truth across all projects, connecting all participants to U.S.-based or Asia-based data sources, which are established based on business lines. For the Sewaren 7 project, a single project master model (PMM) and multiple commodity master models (CMM) were created. Sharing the PMM and CMMs among disciplines allowed designers to resolve clashes collaboratively with all portions of the model. Black & Veatch also used i-models as the currency for interdisciplinary sharing and communication. Storing the i-models in ProjectWise ensured that project team members always had access to the most accurate data wherever they were in the world.

ProjectWise SDK was also used to create a hybrid environment with key internally developed databases and to share accurate equipment design information in real time among disciplines.

The Black & Veatch Power Oil & Gas businesses are now standardized on Bentley technology as its default suite of applications. The organization can more readily flow data among project phases, from estimating and conceptual design through detailed design and to construction and handover. Using Bentley’s design and collaboration technology, lean processes, and a connected data environment supports Black & Veatch’s continuous improvement efforts to eliminate waste and improve efficiency in project execution globally across all projects.

David Curry, engineering manager, Sewaren 7 Project, Black & Veatch, said, “The use of Bentley design applications on the Sewaren 7 project has allowed Black & Veatch additional opportunities to collaborate with our client during the design process to evaluate design alternatives through the use of 3D model reviews, fly through video and renderings of the project master models.”

Foster added, “Bentley’s solutions provide Black & Veatch’s Power and Oil and Gas businesses with the means to work and collaborate with clients on any size project across the globe. Any project, anywhere, any time.”

Guangzhou Metro Design Establishes BIM Processes on New Lines First Subway Loop

Guangzhou Metro Design & Research Institute prepared the plans for the two-story underground ChishaJiao Station and connecting subway. When completed, this CNY 774 million project will link the ChishaJiao and Shiliugang Stations via 1.5 kilometers of track. The design team’s goal was to create 3D models and 2D drawings for each project asset using a BIM process. Guangzhou Metro Design and Research Institute prepared plans for ChishaJiao Station and its connecting subway, creating 3D models and 2D drawings directly from them for each project asset using BIM processes. Upon completion, the new line and station will include transfer platforms to radiating networks providing convenient connections for the increasing number of residents in the Zhuhai District of Guangdong.

As well as being the first station on Guangzhou Metro Line 11, ChishaJiao Station is also the first in the region to be designed using Bentley applications. Guangzhou Metro Design and Research Institute selected Bentley in order to support its BIM objectives on the project, which included improving design quality, deliverables, and efficiency in the face of an extremely short project schedule and one-year preliminary design phase. To achieve this goal, they configured a standardized workspace, established a coding system for each individual asset component, and configured ProjectWise to follow a common workflow for the metro design industry in China.

Other Bentley applications, including AECOsim Building Designer and ProStructures, helped the team successfully create 3D models of ChishaJiao Station and the proposed track interval. The results from each of the disciplines were published as i-models and combined in a unified model. Using 3D models facilitated completion of the project, saving 600 resource days of design modifications, 90 days of proofreading and reviewing workloads, and CNY 1.6 million in project costs in the process. Guangzhou Metro Design and Research Institute is planning to replicate and improve upon results while working on similar subway stations and sections in the future. According to the Institute, the BIM advancements deployed will have wide-reaching benefits for the industry at large, and that the project will be an important design reference in years to come.

Wang Jian, director of structure, Guangzhou Metro Design and Research Institute, said,
“Three-dimensional collaborative design using Bentley software has helped Guangzhou Metro Design and Research Institute improve design efficiency and quality.”

AECOM Designs the New Dholera Sustainable Smart City in India Using BIM Processes

The government of India is developing the Dholera Special Investment Region (DSIR) as part of Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor. This initiative is being undertaken to create a major greenfield industrial hub in the Gujarat region. The total area is 920-square-kilometers and will be developed over a period of 30 years. The government selected AECOM as the program manager responsible for implementing the entire trunk infrastructure including roads, rail, drainage, water supply, water treatment, sewerage, power and energy, gas and all communication lines using Bentley applications.

The government’s vision of the project is to create a strong economic base with a globally competitive environment and state-of-the-art infrastructure that will kick-start local commerce, enhance foreign investments, and create an area for sustainable future development. Project goals for the Dholera SIR aim to double the employment potential, triple industrial output, and quadruple exports from the region in the next five years, while meeting project deadlines and staying within budget.

For this USD 641 million project, AECOM has utilized multiple Bentley applications as it progresses through the planning, design, and construction phases. AECOM deployed ProjectWise as the connected data environment to manage the engineering design data for all project participants. ProjectWise ensures their information is accessible and, through defined workflows and rules, managed through the various phases to enable AECOM to meet project deadlines. ProjectWise acts as the hub for multi-discipline design deliverables, while adhering to the appropriate standards and regulations.

The use of Bentley applications will enable Dholera to meet green development standards, such as the LEED gold trademark of excellence. Using 3D digital engineering models to ensure maximum value across the lifecycle of the project is at the forefront of AECOM’s long-term vision. For example, Navigator helps the project team detect and resolve clashes and creates mobility in the workforce. Bentley Map ensures the accuracy of geospatial information prevalent in their engineering workflows, and the Bentley’s Haestad applications delivered hydraulic modeling for the distribution network. AECOM used OpenRoads for designing and managing road infrastructure, ensuring that roads, cycle paths and multi-purpose corridors were proposed efficiently.

As the project continues to expand and deliver against its milestones, Bentley continues to be a proud partner of AECOM and the program team.

Jagdish Salgaonkar, SVP major programs, Dholera, said, “Dholera Industrial City is not a project. It is nation building, and a prime example of a smart and sustainable city.”

GHD’s Proactive Construction Management Delivers Successful Closure of Hazardous Toxic Dump

GHD has successfully managed a challenging public safety infrastructure project for the Government of Guam—The Ordot Dump Closure. Originally built in the 1940s by the United States Military, the 50-acre dump introduced toxic leachate into the Lonfit River, which feeds into Guam’s Pago Bay. The site was also the source of significant air pollution from methane gas emissions. To close the Ordot Dump, GHD managed the construction of a network of environmental safeguards including a complete cover system, a leachate collection system, a gas flare, sewer system improvements, emergency backup generators, security fencing, and roadway improvements.

For this USD 42 million project, GHD leveraged ProjectWise EADOC, Bentley’s cloud-based construction management software to coordinate the entire project team and stakeholders—including the owner located 10 time zones away, on the other side of the International Dateline. ProjectWise EADOC enabled the team to manage, mine, and utilize an enormous amount of project data including onsite weather station logs, site video monitor imagery consisting of thousands of images a day, aerial drone photography, and CM/CQA and contractor daily reports.

The Ordot Dump project was located in remote harsh tropical environment, and the contractor filed multiple claims due to bad weather totaling 202 days. GHD evaluated the claims fairly based on the meticulous and extraordinary records that were developed, managed, and archived in ProjectWise EADOC. By leveraging this project data, GHD negotiated a time extension of 107 work days, to which the owner and contractor agreed.

GHD used ProjectWise EADOC to efficiently manage the project’s 262 submittals, 76 RFIs, 36 design clarification memos, 163 documents related to the design clarifications, 711 contractor daily production reports, 553 daily construction quality control reports, and 32 correction required notices. ProjectWise EADOC’s document module managed all project drawings, specifications, construction photographs, archaeological, environmental, and UXO (unexploded ordinance) monitoring reports. GHD estimates that ProjectWise EADOC saved its submittal and RFI manager approximately 400 resource hours, and significantly increased efficiency for the entire project team.

Paul Baron, P.E., principal/pacific business group manager, GHD, Inc., said, “EADOC provided us a broad, collaborative solution for a complex project with multiple stakeholders spread across 10 time zones, and has won us over as our go-to construct management tool.”
