DMRC was asked to identify and deliver process optimisation though innovation .
HS2 identified cost allocation as a key enabler to manage cost and personnel utilisation more effectively.
Cost allocation was a highly manual process, affecting on-site, commercial and finance function’s ability to manage cost.
Common in the industry, teams had no visibility of resource utilsation or team productivity
Inconsistent reporting of data often resulting in estimates for new work being based on false assumptions
Approach
DMRC worked with client teams to map the existing process in detail.
We worked with stakeholders to identify key pinpoints and barriers.
Based on the insights, we designed a digital transformation strategy and roadmap.
We developed a detailed design of an innovative new site data management platform and integrated it through an API with other core site system.
The platform automated data feeds to enabled site personnel to seamlessly capture cost and site information on a unified platform.
Cost and time savings were a key area of focus when designing the solution.
Benefits
£50M in cost savings. The platform enabled HS2 to track site activities in real-time. The new solution helped HS2 to remove manual re-entering of data while helping site teams to understand and manage cost at more granular levels than ever before.
Because the client did not have a technical team in-house, DMRC developed the solution as a standalone product (Allo) that is used by the client and other major organisations in the industry which provided a sustainable and cost effective solution.
