Glider Wins Collaboration Project of the Year 2024 at the Construction Computing Awards

The Construction Computing Awards honour the best in construction technology, from tools and solutions to projects that have set a benchmark in innovation and efficiency. The Collaboration Project of the Year category specifically spotlights achievements that demonstrate the power of teamwork and seamless integration of information management, scheduling, and resource planning.

Winning this award is a testament to Glider’s commitment to transforming the built environment through collaboration and data-driven solutions.

The winning project

22 Bishopsgate, one of London’s tallest and most technologically advanced buildings, presented a unique challenge. Beyond the initial construction, this project demanded managing a massive information handover dataset, including:

• Tens of thousands of drawings
• Over 400 individual models with thousands of attributes
• Integration of 30 new information models from separate supply chains within three years of handover

Simultaneously, the building underwent tenant fit-outs across ten floors, effectively creating 30 mini-projects, each requiring coordination with smaller, often BIM-limited, supply chains.

Driving collaboration and efficiency

At the heart of this success is Glider’s innovative approach to digital asset management. Combining our gliderbim® platform with our Asset Data Management Service, we:

• Onboarded fit-out contractors and delivery teams to align on information deliverables and responsibilities.
• Maintained the asset information model while incorporating new data with consistency and accuracy.
• Provided engineering and FM teams with real-time access to a single, reliable source of information.

By integrating 30 supply chains into a cohesive digital strategy, we ensured data quality, reduced risks, and enhanced operational efficiencies.

A proud achievement

This award reflects Glider’s leadership in enabling digital transformation for the built environment. By leveraging innovative solutions, we empower asset owners, contractors, and project teams to achieve better outcomes through seamless collaboration and robust information management.

With 22 Bishopsgate, we proved that even the most complex projects can thrive with the right tools and expertise.
