Success Story 2. Materialising the Digitalisation Benefits for the Construction Industry through Standardisation [Project: COGITO; Expert: René Lindner]

COGITO, an EU-funded Horizon 2020 project, creates real-time digital twins for construction projects, aligning with lean construction principles. It fosters interoperability, aligning digital twins with Building Information Models (BIM) to advance Construction 4.0. By merging novel data capture techniques with near-real-time data, COGITO enhances safety, quality control, workflow management, and cost efficiency. This success story places emphasis on how COGITO advances construction, data modeling, and linked open data standardization. HSbooster.eu aided COGITO in refining its standardisation contributions, exploring various paths, and understanding best practices. This consultancy empowers COGITO to effectively engage with standardisation bodies and make meaningful contributions to the construction industry's standardization landscape.
