Engineering Acceleration Using Project Production Management

Overview

The panel discussion is about the Project of the Future session and Intelligent Production. Intelligent Production is a system that is able to self-organize and self-optimize. It builds on the capabilities of IoT sensors and wireless networks to collect data and quickly optimize the production system, controlling it without the need for manual decision-making. The panelists discuss the blend between mechanical engineering, robotics, artificial intelligence, and construction and how it’s going to change the traditional trade contractors’ job. The project of the future looks like having a better understanding and transparency of the process of construction from start to end, making decisions based on data and facts, and not on feel.
