Managing complex engineering projects: What can we learn from the evolving digital footprint?

作者：

Highlights：

• Important management information can be automatically generated in realtime from the evolving digital footprint of an engineering project.

• Information relating to the product, project progress, dependencies, people, issues and conformance can all be derived from the digital footprint.

• Email content analysis is the sole means by which early identification of issues in a project can be established.

• Through analysis of the content of technical reports and computer models it is possible to monitor product and process dependencies, project progress and generate insights into product performance.
