Description
This project will analyse the feasibility of low-carbon delivery of major infrastructure projects whilst ensuring
compliance to schedule/budget and resilience to operational disruptions. To achieve this, we aim to introduce
‘Intelligent Construction Transportation Assets’ (ICTAs) to enable better informed, and more integrated,
collaborative management decisions. ICTAs will integrate state-of-the-art technologies from a number of
disciplinary areas: procurement, maintenance, routing and refuelling, operations research, and information and
communication technologies. Our consortium brings together Costain, one of the UK's leading construction
engineering solutions providers; Cenex, the UK’s first Centre of Excellence for Low Carbon and Fuel Cell
Technologies; and the University of Edinburgh, a global leader in big data science. By focusing on a portfolio of
Costain’s major infrastructure projects we aim to map current construction processes and elicit the current
barriers to the fully integrated, low-carbon construction supply chain; roadmap scenarios based on our blend of
solutions; and provide and disseminate return on investment recommendations.
