Digital Engineering

Turning Data into Smarter Decisions

At WGA, Digital Engineering is how we design, deliver, and manage projects better. It’s about working smarter — using accurate data, intelligent models, and integrated tools to drive performance, cut risk, and add value at every stage.

From early planning to final delivery, we connect people, process, technology, and data to create a more streamlined, transparent, and efficient project experience, resulting in enhanced outcomes for our clients and project stakeholders.

What Sets Us Apart

Digital tools aren’t an add-on — they’re embedded in the way we work. We do this by:

  • Intelligent modelling and design coordination that supports accuracy and collaboration
  • Automated workflows and AI-enhanced tools that improve safety, efficiency, and quality
  • Drone and laser scanning for real-world site capture
  • Integrated geospatial analysis for smarter planning and risk reduction
  • Smart dashboards that connect data in real time to support faster decisions

We’re flexible — embracing emerging technologies and adapting our approach to suit the project, the team, and the pace of change. Our agility helps clients stay ahead without compromising quality or efficiency.

Why It Matters

  • Less guesswork. More clarity.
  • Fewer project delays. Better coordination across teams.
  • Reduced waste. Smarter sustainability.
  • Greater flexibility. Solutions that evolve with your needs.

Why WGA?

Our approach is grounded in deep technical expertise, practical thinking, and a focus on delivering outcomes Digital is built into everything we do.

Our Key Components of Digital Engineering

We’re building capability around ten core components — each one focused on delivering better outcomes through smarter, more integrated ways of working. Some are already embedded in our delivery. Others are evolving as part of our digital transformation.

Data Governance
We’re strengthening how project data is structured, shared, and managed. Clear, consistent data supports better decisions, reduces rework, and improves delivery.
Cybersecurity
We’re protecting client and project data through secure systems and responsible information management, aligned with industry standards and expectations.
Training and Development
We’re investing in our people through practical training and mentoring — helping teams across all regions build confidence with digital tools and workflows.
Data-Centric Engineering
We’re shifting towards more structured, model-based delivery. Embedding project data into coordinated models improves collaboration and reduces duplication.
Automation and AI
We’re starting to implement automation and AI tools across selected workflows — helping reduce manual effort, improve consistency, and identify risks earlier.
Geospatial Technologies
We actively use geospatial tools to support smarter planning, spatial analysis, and risk management — giving every project better awareness of its real-world context.
Reality Capture Technologies
We use drones, photogrammetry, and laser scanning to capture real-world conditions. This improves model accuracy, reduces site risk, and supports coordination.
Digital Twin Systems
We’re in the early stages of developing digital twin capability — combining models, structured data, and connected systems to support long-term asset performance.
Sustainability and Environmental Impact
We’re using digital tools to help design more sustainably — from early environmental analysis to efficient material use and reduced waste on site.
Client Engagement and Value Creation
From 3D models to live dashboards, we help clients visualise, explore, and steer projects with greater clarity and confidence.
