Skanska has now entered into an agreement with Consigli to employ their Autonomous Engineer

We have been following Consigli for some time, and now, the time is ripe to use the technology to deliver measurable value in our projects, says Christoffer Hernæs, Chief Digital Officer at Skanska in a press release.

Consigli has developed an AI model that designs the technical system quickly and delivers interdisciplinary BIM with fewer materials. This provides a better and more sustainable basis for obtaining quotes from technical suppliers, the statement reads.

“Skanska has contributed both data and learning since the company's inception in 2020, so it's very exciting that they are now entering into a commercial agreement for the full-time employment of the Autonomous Engineer”, says Janne Aas-Jakobsen, founder and CEO of Consigli.

She points out that in addition to design, Consigli's AI model is trained to carry out risk-reducing analyses of the project at various stages in the project development process.

The digitisation of our core processes is a key focus area in our corporate strategy, where we aim to balance top-tier ready-made solutions with custom-developed software.

 It’s about challenging existing practices and driving transformation, rather than simply replicating existing workflows and converting forms into digital formats. We see great potential in the use of language models, as well as the entire spectrum of artificial intelligence methods, especially in the early stages. This is often where innovations are created, and the ability to ensure both the quality and consistency of project foundations, while optimising elements like technical rooms and cable pathways, can provide significant benefits when applied correctly, elaborates Christoffer Hernæs.
