Bentley Systems’ Julien Moutte on how future tech will affect complex engineering project management.
This episode of Designing the Future is brought to you by Bentley Systems.
Engineering is applied science. It’s also an art, the confluence of creativity and blue sky thinking, constrained by physics. For large engineering projects, particularly in the civil engineering space, it’s also about project management. The marriage of great designs, with great planning and high-performance execution delivers projects that arrive on time, on budget and to specification. The bigger the project, the greater the complexity, and problems can scale exponentially with that complexity.
Today, there are new factors. Mass collaboration across a city, a nation or around the world is common for large engineering projects, and it’s a given that very large projects involve more than one software platform. Factors such as regulatory compliance, and data security are also in play, as well as real questions about the emergence of new technology. It’s a big subject, and it’s important.
engineering.com’s Jim Anderton spoke with Julien Moutte, chief technology officer for Bentley Systems, about the current state-of-the-art in big project engineering technology.
