This white paper advises how to harness digital twins (DTs) in construction while avoiding BIM’s pitfalls. DTs connect virtual replicas to physical assets via feedback loops, enhancing design, build, and operations. Success depends on clear definitions, gradual adoption, integration with existing tools, and leveraging both old and new data. Emphasizing APIs, cloud collaboration, and 4D BIM can streamline coordination, reduce rework, and improve asset lifecycle management. Industry-wide standards, data consistency, and stakeholder alignment are key to unlocking DTs’ full value for efficiency, sustainability, and profitability.
