PROJECT TEAMS
There is a critical need among infrastructure organizations to connect widely distributed project teams for real-time
collaboration and to sustain the value of their information. The projects in this category demonstrate collaboration
by connecting people and information across project teams – no matter where they are located – to provide a single
source of project truth for all information.
AECOM
Gateway Upgrade Project
Brisbane, Australia
The AU$2.12 billion Gateway Upgrade Project is one of the largest transportation
infrastructure projects in Queensland’s history. The Leighton Abigroup Joint
Venture (LAJV) commissioned AECOM, in partnership with SMEC, for detailed
design and construction-phase engineering of the project, which includes a new
gateway bridge with pedestrian and cycle path, refurbishment of the existing
bridge, and upgrade and extension of the existing gateway motorway.
AECOM and LAJV worked closely by using Project Wise to connect team
members in multiple countries, and completed an innovative design in just 15
months, enabling the bridge to open six months ahead of schedule. AECOM also
designed 34 new or widened bridges, four new interchanges with enhanced
entry and exit ramps, and 19 kilometers of new or upgraded road sections.
