Digital capital projects

A digital capital project is more than just using technology to deliver a project. Digitization represents a fundamental change in the way a project is designed, built, operated and decommissioned.

The digital transformation offers an opportunity to achieve security, efficiency and significant financial benefits, including a 5 to 10% reduction in construction costs and a 10 to 20% reduction in operating costs.

The main challenges to achieve these objectives are usually related to obtaining financing, managing people and ensuring adherence, selecting the early response and delivering the change.

Deloitte has extensive experience in digital transformation. Although the journey can be complex, we know that a successful outcome can be characterized in a very clear and simple way – with a data-driven approach, supported by an agile innovation process and a digital mindset that permeates the team and the project's organization.
