Enhancing Project Planning through Digital Workflows
Bentley Systems’ OpenRail solution offers a cutting-edge approach to rail construction planning, revolutionizing project planning with 4D digital workflows that seamlessly connect design and construction teams. In today’s world where governments are heavily investing in rail and transit projects, digital technology has emerged as the key for owners to ensure successful project planning and improved construction outcomes.
Unlocking Value with Model-Based Workflows
OpenRail enables users to unleash the value of their data by utilizing digital model-based workflows. By optimizing project and possession/blockade plans, streamlining bidding processes, refining schedules, and efficiently allocating resources, OpenRail ensures that projects are delivered swiftly, safely, and efficiently. This modern approach not only minimizes the risk of miscommunication and errors but also guarantees that rail and transit systems fully serve their communities.
Streamlining Collaboration and Planning
With OpenRail, construction planning and collaboration are simplified through model-based workflows and cloud technology, creating a secure single source of truth that aligns design and construction for superior outcomes. This seamless integration enhances communication, minimizes errors, and ensures that projects progress smoothly.
Optimizing Cost Projections and Quantity Takeoffs
OpenRail leverages 4D workflows to break down horizontal projects into constructible components, enabling auto-calculated quantity takeoffs (QTO) for precise cost projections. This feature enhances cost control, improves budget estimation accuracy, and streamlines the overall budgeting process.
Success Stories with Bentley Systems
Bentley Systems, through its OpenRail solution, has already demonstrated remarkable success, such as the removal of dangerous level crossings in Melbourne. By embracing a digital twin approach supported by Bentley, projects were completed safely, on-time, and with minimal disruption, showcasing the power of digital technologies in driving successful project outcomes.
