New technology and innovation promises to drive significant benefit across the asset lifecycle, but successful implementation means navigating challenges from operating silos & data disconnects to scaling across thousands of assets, all while recognising the importance of the 'human element'.

Building Information Modelling (BIM) seems to have an image problem.

Our host Eoin Ó Murchú is joined by Jon Kerbey, BIM Director at HS2 and Andrew Walker, a digital consultant within PwC’s capital projects team, to discuss the benefits of BIM, including efficiency savings.
