AECOM first in the industry to fully embrace AI for engineering in project delivery

Groundbreaking move for the engineering and construction industry

This collaboration marks a significant technological shift, paving the way for reduced risk and cost while enhancing efficiency and sustainability in engineering and construction.

A New Era for Engineering

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming industries worldwide, and engineering is no exception. “Consigli has been the most exciting product that we have seen with their Autonomous Engineer to look at project delivery.” - says Peter Sutcliffe, Global Technical Practice Lead - Building Engineering at AECOM.

By employing the Autonomous Engineer,, the company aims to streamline workflows, improve quality assessment, and optimise project execution, leading to significant reductions in time, cost, and carbon emissions in early-stage design and planning.

Most importantly, by accelerating engineering processes, the Autonomous Engineer  enables AECOM to provide superior outcomes in a smaller time frame resulting in increased value to clients across various sectors.

Majestic Way Project

A key milestone has been AECOM’s collaboration with Clarion Housing Group. Clarion, a leading UK housing provider, played a crucial role in driving this change by offering a shared project, Majestic Way. The objective was clear, use AI to support the project’s sustainability and efficiency goals without compromising on quality.

Scaling Up for Global Impact

Encouraged by the success of this initial project, AECOM is now looking to expand its partnership with CONSIGLI on a global scale. The company is exploring opportunities to implement the Autonomous Engineer across various sectors and projects worldwide.

“Working directly with clients and general contractors has been our main way forward, challenging the traditional way of engineering.  With Aecom we have found a partner of action and the Autonomous Engineer thrives in the collaborative work with Aecom for great clients.” - says Janne Aas-Jakobsen, CEO of Consigli
