Operational Impact
By using SYNCHRO 4D, DPR was able to simulate construction monitoring and asset tracking, streamlining workflows and scheduling. This enabled the client to meet their commissioning timelines and run simultaneous filtration cycles, tripling drug manufacturing capacity. The digital data and information helped coordinate labor resources and promoted data-driven, informed decisions. Working in a virtual, simulated environment helped DPR understand where the project stood at any given moment, accurately predict the duration of works, and efficiently govern project hours and resources. Through advanced construction planning and collaboration, DPR completed the project ahead of schedule, even amid a global pandemic. The use of SYNCHRO also allowed DPR to establish digital workflows and perform advanced work packaging, industrializing the delivery of the cutting-edge drug manufacturing facility. | |
Quantitative Benefit
SYNCHRO 4D provided accurate representation of all new-work factory piping and current state of assets, eliminating guesswork. | |
Careful scripting prevented the need to assign over 27,000 model objects to 950 resources, saving two weeks of work. | |
With SYNCHRO 4D’s visualization, DPR completed the 14-week project six days early amid COVID-19. | |
