Leveraging global technology leadership to solve local delivery challenges
Major infrastructure projects across Australia are becoming larger, more complex and subject to increasing pressure, with supply chain disruptions, protracted approvals and labour shortages placing growing strain on the nation’s infrastructure pipeline. That’s where DT Infrastructure is leading the way, raising the bar for project delivery by harnessing the global technology capabilities of its parent company, Gamuda.
DTI is transforming how infrastructure projects overcome challenges by leveraging Gamuda’s technology leadership. Gamuda’s Chief Digital Officer, John Lim, recently presented as the international keynote speaker at the Future of Construction Summit, held in Brisbane last May. He explained how DTI is well-positioned to optimise performance and risk mitigation on their projects.
“DTI’s access to pioneering platforms such as the Gamuda Digital Operating System (GDOS), the Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and critical industry partnerships with cloud-based systems, enables them to bring a fully integrated, data-driven approach to their projects,” says John.
“These technologies don’t just streamline workflows, they break down silos between key delivery functions including design, safety, environment and delivery, to provide a unified source of information across the project lifecycle.”
Gamuda’s delivery technologies are backed by the Gamuda Excellence Transformation (GET) team, a specialist group solely focused on driving technological innovation in project delivery. Their expertise ensures DTI’s projects benefit from globally recognised solutions tailored to the Australian infrastructure context.
“It’s this combination of global capability and DTI’s local delivery expertise that is leading the way in delivering more efficient and predictable infrastructure outcomes,” says John.
“The platforms and programs we use across the Gamuda Group are powering digital enablement by streamlining delivery and mitigating project delays.”
With predictive insights and cloud-based coordination, DTI helps clients reduce the risk of delays, minimise exposure to rising costs and improve delivery certainty. More than that, DTI is setting a new benchmark for how major infrastructure projects are delivered in Australia.
Key to DTI’s success is their commitment to creating a fully integrated, data-driven environment that goes beyond standalone systems, providing delivery teams with greater insights and control throughout every stage of project delivery. At the core of this integrated approach is GDOS, a unified platform that delivers consistency and structure to infrastructure projects while enabling the rapid roll-out of systems from the outset of project delivery.
“GDOS consolidates data from critical platforms like ACC, P6, Candy, Moodle and SAP to create a connected environment where project teams can monitor progress in real-time and quickly address potential issues as they arise,” John explains.
“It also enables closer collaboration between DTI, project clients, contractors and suppliers through a fully integrated project delivery model, ensuring every party has access to the same reliable data to support transparent and strategic decision making.” clients.”
“Our Autodesk Construction Cloud breaks down barriers between commercial, design and delivery teams, ensuring seamless collaboration across the projects. Coupled with cloud-based Building Information Modelling (BIM), DTI delivery teams can visualise, coordinate and validate every element of the project before work even begins on site, significantly reducing rework and costly delays.”
Additionally, Gamuda’s strategic partnerships with Autodesk, as well as Google AI, are advancing system integration across DTI’s projects ensuring even remote teams have access to live project information and data across delivery platforms.
Building capability within project teams is essential for DTI to effectively implement these technologies and embed digital literacy across project delivery.
“DTI are implementing targeted training initiatives, ensuring that not only are teams equipped with the tools but also have the ability to use them. This investment in our people ensures that our technological capability translates into tangible outcomes for our projects and our clients.”
