Opening General Session
Transforming Federal Facility Projects: Digital Twins in the Built Environment
Digital twins are redefining how we design, build, and manage the built environment. This emerging technology is revolutionizing how we approach resilience and recovery from individual buildings to entire asset portfolios and lifeline infrastructure. By leveraging the same simulation capabilities used in defense and facilities sectors—including military-grade data analysis and satellite imagery—digital twins are transforming project and lifecycle asset management.
This engaging exploration of digital twins will transform your understanding of infrastructure innovation. This must-attend session will delve into key applications, including:
- Real-Time Monitoring and Maintenance
- Enhanced Simulation, Planning, and Virtual Management
- Integrated Data Management
- Sustainability, Resilience of Assets, and Functional Recovery
Imagine simulating community-wide responses to events like Hurricane Helene, accelerating functional recovery, and enhancing regional resilience through virtual management. Whether you are an industry thought leader, policymaker, or practitioner, this session is critical for understanding how digital twins will drive innovation and efficiency in the built environment.
We'll explore how these virtual replicas are revolutionizing project lifecycle management, enhancing operational efficiency, and improving decision-making processes across defense and facility sectors.
