Elevating Project Planning with Digital Workflows
Bentley OpenRoads offers a cutting-edge solution for road and bridge construction planning by integrating 4D digital workflows that foster seamless collaboration between design and construction teams. In a global landscape where governments are heavily investing in infrastructure projects, digital technology becomes paramount for project success and improved construction outcomes. By leveraging digital model-based workflows, project owners can unlock the full potential of their data, optimize project plans, streamline bidding processes, enhance schedules, and efficiently allocate resources.
Enhancing Construction Planning and Collaboration
Through model-based workflows and cloud technology, Bentley OpenRoads provides a secure, centralized platform that serves as the single source of truth, aligning design and construction efforts for superior outcomes. This integrated approach ensures that all stakeholders are on the same page, leading to streamlined communication, reduced errors, and enhanced project delivery.
Empowering 4D Planning and Simulation
OpenRoads enables users to transform linear design models into dynamic construction models, facilitating better data utilization and enhanced project planning, scheduling, and resource management in a 4D environment. This real-time simulation capability allows stakeholders to visualize the project progress, identify potential bottlenecks, and optimize resources for maximum efficiency.
Streamlining Cost Projections with Automated Quantity Takeoffs
By leveraging 4D workflows, Bentley OpenRoads breaks down complex projects into manageable components, enabling auto-calculated quantity takeoffs for precise cost projections. This automated process not only enhances accuracy in estimating project costs but also streamlines the overall budgeting process, leading to more informed decision-making and cost-effective project management.
Real-World Application and Testimonial
Zachary Maybury, Design Squad Manager at the New York State Department of Transportation, lauds Bentley OpenRoads for its innovative approach to construction planning. Maybury notes that the utilization of a digital twin as the primary contractual document in a high-profile project marked a significant milestone in project management. By visualizing the project through a 4D simulation, the team was able to accurately depict construction staging, leading to enhanced collaboration and project efficiency.
