Introducing examples of overcoming communication barriers such as time differences, distance, and different languages!
We would like to introduce the construction of coal-fired power generation facilities in the Republic of Chile, South America, which Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. received an order for in 2006. Chile, the manufacturing site, is located exactly on the opposite side of the Earth from Japan. The time difference, geographical distance, and different languages pose significant obstacles to information communication in design, manufacturing operations, and their process management. To address this, the company utilized "Tekla Structures" to accumulate and manage all information from design to manufacturing within a single 3D model. By doing so, they maintained consistency of information between the design site in Japan and the manufacturing site in Chile, aiming to reduce rework and inconsistencies in design and manufacturing operations. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
