Case Study: Skanska streamlines early residential planning with Spacemaker AI

Skanska to use AI from Spacemaker for early planning of residential housing

Skanska, a leading Nordic developer of housing and residential areas, needed to speed up and improve the early planning of residential projects while supporting its broader digital transformation. The company faced lengthy traditional planning processes, especially in detailed planning work, and wanted better tools to help optimize residential building sites more efficiently and sustainably. Skanska partnered with Spacemaker and its AI platform for early-phase residential planning.

Spacemaker provided a cloud-based AI software platform that lets Skanska analyze, simulate, and visualize alternative site designs while accounting for physical data, regulations, and local requirements. This helped Skanska build more efficiently and sustainably, improve dialogue with municipalities, and reduce time spent on early design exploration. The case study does not give a hard numerical ROI, but it states that the platform helps address planning bottlenecks in a process that traditionally can take nine years from project idea to first occupancy.
