Story
Inside Balfour Beatty, change control used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in industrials groups working out of the United Kingdom. Engineering and quality needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Balfour Beatty uses Hexagon PPM from Hexagon as the working layer for product lifecycle data. Hexagon provides digital reality and industrial software for measurement, design, and operations in manufacturing and geospatial work. The practical change is simple: change control has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Balfour Beatty gets from Hexagon is a durable place to run change control and a way for engineering and quality to see the same product lifecycle data at the same time.
