Case Study: Parsons Brinckerhoff achieves seamless, secure global collaboration on the Dubai Metro with Oracle Aconex

Parsons Brinckerhoff uses Aconex to connect thousands of team members to deliver the Dubai Metro Megaproject

Parsons Brinckerhoff used Oracle Aconex to manage delivery of the US$7.8 billion Dubai Metro Purple Line — a 49 km, high‑visibility infrastructure project with six intermediate stations. The project faced strategic complexity and a geographically dispersed team across Dubai, Thailand, Australia and Hong Kong, requiring immediate transmission of large volumes of project data and scalable, reliable communications.

Aconex provided a secure collaboration platform with document and drawing management, version control, a permanent audit trail and global training/support. The system connected thousands of participants across civil, structural, rail systems, planning, environmental and construction teams, enabling fast deployment, broad adoption, closer coordination and reduced risk of errors and miscommunications.
