Case Study: Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure Rebuild Team rebuilds Christchurch infrastructure faster with 12d Model from 12d Solutions

Christchurch Rebuild - Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure Rebuild Team

The Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure Rebuild Team (SCIRT), an alliance formed to rebuild Christchurch's infrastructure after the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes, faced a significant challenge in standardizing the design process. With five different organizations using multiple software packages, there was no unified system for managing geospatial data from survey to as-built stages. To integrate all civil and survey design, they selected 12d Model from 12d Solutions as the primary platform, despite only 30% of their 150 designers having prior experience with it.

12d Solutions implemented a comprehensive digital data cycle based on 12d Model, enabling a seamless field-to-finish workflow. This system standardized data capture, design, construction, and the transfer of as-built records to the city's GIS. As a result, SCIRT rapidly up-skilled its entire design team, who became productive within weeks. The implemented solution successfully delivered the planned $50 million of civil infrastructure into Christchurch each month, achieving the alliance's ambitious vision.
