Case Study: Laing O’Rourke speeds bridge design and delivery with DriveWorks and SOLIDWORKS

Laing O’Rourke cuts bridge design time from 30 weeks to days with DriveWorks

Laing O’Rourke, a global construction firm, sought to transform the complex and lengthy bridge design process. They collaborated with DriveWorks to develop a unified digital delivery process, aiming to improve interoperability, reduce manual tasks, and dramatically cut design time.

Using DriveWorks and SOLIDWORKS, the solution automated the creation of model assemblies and engineering drawings from a set of user inputs. DriveWorks enabled the automation of routine processes, which dramatically reduced design turnaround time from months to days or weeks. This eliminated last-minute changes, reduced delivery risk, and allowed the impact of design decisions on cost to be realized much earlier.
