Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

Implementation of a comprehensive 3D digital twin used from design through construction to operation, enabling a 'single source of truth' for millions of components in a new nuclear plant.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"The most complex BIM implementation in the world. In nuclear, configuration management is safety-critical. This twin prevents the 'paperwork drift' that plagued legacy nuclear projects, ensuring the physical plant matches the digital licensing basis exactly."

warning The Challenge

Nuclear plants involve millions of parts, thousands of workers, and decades of timeline. Legacy projects failed because design drawings didn't match the built reality, causing rework and safety documentation gaps. Coordinating 300+ main suppliers without a central database led to massive delays.

psychology The Solution

Mandated the 3DEXPERIENCE platform as the single environment for all data. Every valve, pipe, and cable is modeled in 3D with attached metadata (specs, history). Construction teams use the twin to rehearse complex installs (4D scheduling). The twin serves as the 'configuration engine' ensuring the safety case is always valid.
