Hexagin and Nemetschek have formed a strategic partnership

Hexagon's Geosystems division and software specialist the Nemetschek Group have established a strategic partnership to accelerate the digital transformation within construction. The partnership is intended to drive the adoption of digital twins by offering customers integrated, end-to-end workflows for efficient and sustainable building operations.

Huge quantities of data are created during the lifecycle of a construction project but much of this valuable information resides in silos and becomes outdated over time. Incomplete and outdated information leads to poor decisions that can affect a structure’s performance and increase operational costs. Nemetschek and Hexagon believe that digital twins can address this issue, transforming the industry and overcoming technical challenges. A digital twin boosts visibility, increases efficiency and delivers data-driven insights.

Hexagon leverages its end-to-end reality capture and Scan2BIM solutions to automatically capture accurate and real-time field data to create Digital Twins across all sectors. It uses its AI- powered solutions to support analytics and simulations, generate progress insights as well as provide an immersive experience navigating assets during design, construction and operations through its VR/AR and positioning technology.

Nemetschek’s new dTwin package is, cloud-based Digital Twin platform that delivers data-driven insights, helping management from design to operations. This package brings together relevant information from CAD/BIM, IWMS with real-time streams from operations, providing value via visualisation, data analysis and asset management. With the platform, users can optimise operations based on real time information and data-funded decision criteria.

Jointly, Nemetschek and Hexagon will provide customers with the tools, services and expertise for an end-to-end, digital twin workflow by joining the up-to-date building data through Hexagon’s reality capture solutions with the smart operations powered by Nemetschek’s dTwin.
