Case Study: Mace Dragados HS2 streamlines megaproject planning with Aphex

Mace Dragados HS2 - Customer Case Study

Mace Dragados HS2, the joint venture delivering the London Euston Station for the HS2 rail project, faced the immense challenge of coordinating over 30 subcontractors on a constrained and complex site. To overcome issues with siloed communication and different ways of working, they needed a robust planning routine and a centralized system to replace inefficient tools like Excel.

The vendor Aphex provided a solution that enabled a structured weekly planning routine. The platform brought all project managers and subcontractors together into a single database for reporting and accessing data, which was visualized on Gantt charts and maps. This allowed for effective clash detection and built trust in the plan across the entire supply chain, ensuring work was coordinated safely and collaboratively.
