We are FCC Nº23

The European R&D&I project DigiChecks, financed by the EU’s Horizon Europe Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, has got under way with the participation of 13 entities from five different European countries, led by FCC Construcción. Over the next three years the project will work on the development of a new digital framework for managing construction permits and regulatory compliance control. The aim is to learn the contributions of each entity and establish the working bases to achieve the proposed objectives with excellence. Based on new technologies DigiChecks will develop a Digital Environment that allows interoperability and communication between the different platforms of the construction industry, which will facilitate the management of permits and complian- ce controls. It will be based on new technologies (BIM, GIS, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Digital Twin) among others, taking as a reference previous interna - tional initiatives. The management of building permits and compliance checks is an issue that involves a large number of actors in the processes, from architects and engineering firms involved in the designs, public entities, construction com - panies and subcontractors, to the final owner of the assets. DigiChecks , a project that will create a digital environment for permit management and compliance control in construction projects, is born I N N O V A T I O N 58 I N N O V A T I O N
