IDP participates in the European Union BIM2TWIN R&D project
IDP is participating in the BIM2TWIN project: Optimal Construction Management & Production Control which has been awarded a budget of 6 million euros by the EU, within the framework of the call “Industrial Sustainability H2020-NMBP-ST-IND-2018-2020” of the H2020 Programme.
The project aims to build a Digital Building Twin (DBT) platform for construction management that implements LEAN principles to optimize the process, shortening deadlines, reducing costs, improving quality and security, and reducing the carbon footprint.
BIM2TWIN proposes a comprehensive and holistic approach, consisting of a platform (DBT) that provides situational awareness and an extensible set of building management applications, supporting a closed-loop Plan-Do-Check-Act construction.
