  • Pushing digital boundaries | JN Bentley and Mott MacDonald Bentley

    Mott MacDonald's "Pushing the Boundaries" page showcases AI and data analytics use in innovative tech development and digital twin case studies Back Next About us Introducing JN Bentley Vision and values Publications Supporting society Digital design Teamwork and collaboration Virtual reality Augmented reality This is an overview of digital in JN Bentley, including our investment in digital delivery and our company digital transformation and how it is embedded in everything we do. Digital delivery OUR APPROACH Pushing the boundaries As an employee-owned company, we make our own decisions about where to invest our money. One of these areas of investment is developing ideas and discovering new technology and digital tools to keep us at the forefront of the industry. As part of the Mott MacDonald Group, we collaborate with teams across the world and partner with organisations who recognise us as industry leaders in this space. Artificial Intelligence (AI) – We use AI to check our risk assessments and method statements, drawing from our Operational Safety Standards to give instant, relevant and comprehensive documents which increases our efficiency, productivity, and performance. Data analytics – We develop powerful business intelligence dashboards to provide the insight our teams need to make better decisions. We are also working with partners who use predictive analytics to provide advance knowledge of safety performance based on previous and real-time data fed into an AI powered model. This allows us to deliver proactive support to our projects that need it most. Case study: Digital twins During the design, build and commissioning of a £37m sludge treatment plant at Five Fords in Wales, we identified that the sludge treatment process required complex conditions and a controlled environment to operate successfully. We adopted a digital twin approach to give us and our client more certainty during the commissioning stage to mitigate risk and shorten the lengthy programme. The development of the twin was driven by two key questions: 1. What if we knew how the plant was going to perform in the future? and, 2. What if we could virtually simulate operating conditions before making decisions? A platform to capture, process and visualise the data was also required, as well as a calibrated, real-time model to provide analytics. Our digital twin platform, Moata , processes billions of data points daily and can integrate with multiple software packages and machine learning modules, making it a powerful digital twin platform built for scale. To dynamically model the complex biological process, the industry-leading wastewater simulation software Biowin was used. Biowin, developed by EnviroSim, was integrated with Moata to provide real-time insight into plant operation. The digital twin solution helps to optimise performance, reduce energy use and cut chemical consumption. The Five Fords digital twin has allowed the team to move from reactive to proactive decision-making, and it is creating a real step-change in how we manage our assets. This is one small part of creating a wider digital twin for all water and wastewater assets. It involves building an ecosystem of supply, distribution and treatment assets and integrating catchment-wide aspects of the water cycle, such as rainfall predictions. This will only occur through collaboration and strategic partnerships, ensuring we are using the best expertise on a global level.

We’ve supported innovative practices to drive low water commissioning techniques, which can support up to a 95% reduction in commissioning water usage. We follow the waste hierarchy, considering waste and resource management from the outset of project delivery to minimise waste and re-use, recycle and recover as much as possible. Our waste management target is to direct >95% of the waste we generate from landfill. We continue to seek efficiencies in our operations and are seeing benefits from standardised site setups that use cabins with improved EPC ratings; the use of battery storage units on site; and the introduction of Stage V engines in our plant fleet. We actively monitor energy consumption across offices: the majority of electricity used here has been moved to green tariffs with REGO (Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin) certification. We are also certified against ISO 50001 for Energy Management for the design, construction and commissioning of building and civil, mechanical and electrical projects.

  • Digital rehearsal | JN Bentley and Mott MacDonald Bentley

    JN Bentley's "Digital Rehearsal" optimizes construction planning with technology, aligning design and programs for enhanced safety and efficiency Back Next About us Introducing JN Bentley Vision and values Publications Digital construction Procurement with purpose Health and safety Enhancing the environment This is an overview of digital in JN Bentley, including our investment in digital delivery and our company digital transformation and how it is embedded in everything we do. Digital delivery OUR APPROACH Pushing the boundaries Digital rehearsal Digital rehearsal optimises how we plan the construction phase of our projects. It aligns design with the construction programme and drives collaboration between people and technology, enabling project teams to rehearse the construction sequence at the right time with the right set of people to identify the best sequence in terms of safety, supply-chain, operational site interfaces and temporary works logistics. Designers get a better understanding of buildability and construction teams understand the specification and any client operational constraints. Case study: Hallbank Tunnel Hallbank involved a short shutdown of an aqueduct supplying 2.5 million customers with 570 million litres of water a day. After nearly two years of main works, our client handed the entire site over to us to complete the connections. At its peak, 90 engineers on round-the-clock shifts worked at each connection. We developed a highly detailed 4D model that facilitated collaborative rehearsals with the team and ensured the operation was meticulously planned. The connections were a success, and the site was handed back to our client early. The 4D model maximised efficiency and supported collaboration between the design and construction teams. The model also helped to identify temporary works and process constraints, beyond the realm of 3D clash detection. Case study: Embsay Water Treatment Works During the investigation and tender stage at Embsay, SYNCHRO 4D was used to create a digital rehearsal to better understand sequencing on an extremely tight site. Outputs from the rehearsal led directly to programme updates, saving 10 weeks and over £100,000 in preliminary site costs.

Awards ABOUT JN Bentley Ltd is part of the global management, engineering and development consultancy Mott MacDonald, offering our clients full feasibility, design and construction services throughout the UK. Who we are ABOUT We integrate inclusion and belonging, professional and personal development, and health and wellbeing into our business culture. People OUR APPROACH Our aim is to reduce water consumption, minimise our waste, and use energy efficiently. Preserving resources OUR APPROACH We must deliver quality solutions in a cost and efficient way. Doing so ensures we add value for our clients and continue to thrive as an organisation. How do we achieve this? Through our Quality, Cost & Efficiency Strategy. Quality, cost and efficiency OUR APPROACH This is an overview of digital in JN Bentley, including our investment in digital delivery and our company digital transformation and how it is embedded in everything we do. Digital delivery OUR APPROACH Virtual reality We are using Virtual Reality (VR) headsets to place our teams and clients into our 3D design models, allowing them to virtually navigate and communicate with each other prior to any construction. Integrating VR into project design and delivery is helping us to better understand challenges on site as well as those faced by our client’s operational staff after we’ve handed over the constructed asset. Case study: Embsay Water Treatment Works At Embsay Water Treatment Works (WTW) we used the latest VR headsets and software to present design options for the dosing lance arrangement and removal process to the client's project engineer. The VR allowed the team to visualise how operatives would be able to physically access the instruments once built and choose the design that was easiest for operation, therefore ensuring that the design choice was right first time.
