The Case for a Digital Thread

The business value of digital twin communication via a digital thread

The AEC industry has made mostly incremental changes to professional practices as technology has continued to advance.

In this thought leadership piece, Gafcon Digital’s John Turner shows that, if owners and stakeholders move away from constraining technology by adhering to typical AEC processes, instead using digital twin systems to radically transform the way they do business, they can save time, reduce budget and risk, and eliminate the human error that stems from repeated manual inputs.

The digital thread unites the disparate, often proprietary components of a digital twin system to maximize benefits for building owners and serial builders.
