Digital Virtual Engineering for your path to

climate neutrality

We support you to achieve your climate targets.

As a technical consultancy, we use Virtual Engineering and data integration to create a comprehensive and holistic digital representation of your project, development, product or asset.

Our solutions comply with European and international sustainability and climate targets. They address all economic, ecological and social aspects.

This is how you can contribute in a very tangible way to mitigating the effects of climate change already in this decade.

At the same time, our offer enables you to avoid carbon emissions, conserve resources and still meet the infrastructure demands of a globally growing urban population.

Topics

Our Virtual Engineering solutions can be applied in all planning phases.

Even in the case of the most complex interdisciplinary problems, they offer the opportunity of determining spatially distributed parameters and time-dependent characteristics of your project in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. These provide your investigations and planning a significantly higher information value. Possible reasons for non-optimal performance indicators and increased risks are identified more quickly and easily and are corrected automatically. Such design feedback is achieved through seamless integration of new digital processes with proven engineering methods and software.

Simulations and analyses are auditable and can be made available to your stakeholders and the public in a high-quality visual and immersive User Experience.
