Reduce Travel Time, Costs and Environmental Impact

In design projects

In industrial design projects, especially those involving retrofit, expansion or modernisation, the accuracy of existing site data is critical. Traditionally, designers and engineers have had to make repeated visits to verify measurements, resolve uncertainties, or check for potential clashes with existing structures, each visit consuming time, budget and generating travel-related emissions.

Reality Twin transforms this process by providing high-precision, up-to-date 3D surface models of the facility, complete with relevant asset data. With this level of detail available remotely, teams can carry out design tasks with confidence from the outset, significantly reducing the number of site visits needed throughout the project lifecycle. This not only saves costs but also allows projects to move forward faster and with fewer interruptions, while supporting environmental goals by lowering the carbon footprint of the design process.

In troubleshooting and repair planning

When unexpected maintenance needs or equipment failures occur, time is of the essence — but so is safety and cost-efficiency. Reality Twin enables experts to access real-time data, visualise plant conditions in a 3D environment and collaborate without being physically present at the site.

The remote capability allows for immediate consultation between operators, engineers and external specialists, improving responsiveness and decision-making. Repair plans can be reviewed and optimised before technicians are dispatched, reducing downtime and minimising unnecessary site travel. In some cases, issues can even be resolved or re-evaluated entirely remotely.

In the long run, this remote-first approach helps industrial facilities become more agile, less resource-intensive, and more sustainable by reducing emissions linked to travel and reactive maintenance operations.

Minimise Environmental Impact

By reducing the need for on-site visits and enabling remote collaboration, Reality Twin significantly cuts travel-related emissions. Its precise data supports more efficient design, troubleshooting and resource planning, helping extend the lifecycle of industrial facilities and reduce unnecessary material use. The result is a more sustainable approach to industrial operations, with measurable environmental benefits.
