BDP has harnessed open source AI to create a natural language tool that mines the collective knowledge of the practice. Alistair Kell, a principal and chief information officer, heralds the arrival of Chat BDP.

Laing O’Rourke, BDP and SolibriDigital won the Digital Collaboration of the Year, sponsored by Bluebeam, at the Digital Construction Awards last night (4 July).

The DCA Collaboration category recognises the best use of digitalisation/digital methodologies and/or technologies to enhance collaboration between two or more organisations on a project, at any level of the supply chain.

Now being demolished, the Nakagin Tower in Tokyo will live on, both in the real world and the metaverse, thanks in no small part to BDP.
