Dzhamgyr Mine – Project Implementation in Extreme Conditions

city of Almaty, Kazakhstan Facts ProjectWise and Bentley’s open applications streamlined workflows and communication, optimizing scheduling across 500 worksites. Leveraging Bentley’s modeling and visualization software facilitated simultaneous design and construction. Project Bringing Gold Production into Kyrgyzstan To eliminate exporting ore for processing and enable gold production within Kyrgyzstan, a decision was made in 2018 to build a gold plant in the mountainous Talas region, nearby the Dzhamgyr mine. The USD 75 million project included constructing the main building, a crushing and screening complex, a laboratory, storage pond, tailings storage facility, poison and ore storage areas, shift camps for operating personnel, and new roadways and accesses. AAEngineering delivered the winning bid for this engineering, procurement, and construction project that was located in a dangerously seismic area. In addition to the altitude and seismicity complications, AAEngineering had to overcome technical, engineering, and coordination challenges, as well as meet strict environmental standards amid a short construction period and an ensuing global pandemic. “Without using ContextCapture and OpenRoads, it is difficult to imagine the possibility of designing the multistage construction sites, on-site engineering works, roads, and highway spirals.” Andrey AksyonovDirector of Information Modeling DepartmentAAEngineering Group Solution Open Applications Provide Integrated Solution AAEngineering selected ProjectWise

What’s the Hold up with Model-based Review Adoption?

Nearly every design and engineering firm relies on a 2D or 3D model—yet many are not using those models for coordination and collaboration. For many, model-based reviews are pie-in-the-sky benefits limited to big organizations with seemingly unlimited technology resources. That’s not the case any more thanks to on-demand, instant-on cloud-based solutions. Today’s software as a service environment opens the door for organizations of all sizes to take advantage of a multi-discipline, multi-organizational model-based design review process.

Three Reasons Digital Project Collaboration is Better Than Point Solutions

For small and medium organizations, facilitating a collaborative work environment is considerably more complex, particularly in the civil infrastructure environment. What used to be easily managed in an office through a LAN or similar network is now distributed amongst multiple locations—and likely that’s not going to change anytime soon. For many, the necessary work adaptations required to deal with the pandemic have underscored the limitations of existing solutions in the way of digital collaboration tools and large file sharing. Here’s three reasons civil design organizations of any size might consider investing in an online, on-demand project collaboration solution to drive process improvements:  Get Simple & Secure Access to Current Data Access reliability became a differentiator during the pandemic. LAN-based environments struggled to keep up with the reality of multiple ‘offices.’ In today’s environment, cloud-based solutions are the norm and available at a price point that’s unbeatable, while providing a forum for integration and large file sharing. These solutions allow organizations to create, share, review, and coordinate on project information, monitor tasks, and conduct reviews from a single cloud-based portal.  Access Design Models from a Browser Point solutions are very powerful, no doubt, but very few are able to bring different
