Custom digital twin technology solutions

Want to reap the benefits of digital twinning but struggling to find off-the-shelf software that meets your needs? Let’s create a solution that truly engages stakeholders and helps answer those ‘unanswerable’ questions.

Don’t get lost in the maze of cloud computing, machine learning, data analytics, IoT and 3D visualisation options out there. We help you cut through the hype and take a shortcut to value – with a custom digital twin.

From manufacturing facilities and wastewater management to logistics optimisation, nuclear waste clean-up and everything in between – we help organisations create digital twins that turn complexity into clarity. Importantly, our approach focuses on both short-term and long-term value, giving you a foundation for:

Delivering use cases quickly in a way that’s more sustainable
Making the digital twin better for users by opening up more opportunities to gain insights (including from across the value chain)
Ensuring security and governance and making your digitalisation roadmap more cost-effective in the long run.

We have a portfolio of industry-leading digital twin software, but there are many scenarios in which those solutions don’t meet all your needs or provide you with the competitive advantage you’re looking for. If any of these 4 considerations apply to you, a customised digital twin can be the most efficient way forward (while maximising long-term return on investment).

Meet specific business requirements

Even if off-the-shelf software can be tailored, it can be more cost-effective, faster and result in a more efficient technical footprint to develop a customised digital twin.

Manage unique assets

If you have unique assets, systems, environments, processes and/or use cases, you may need a custom digital twin to represent them accurately in the virtual world.

Easily integrate with existing systems

A custom digital twin can be designed to integrate with your systems, helping you leverage existing technology investments without requiring onerous work or additional overheads.

Protect intellectual property

With a custom digital twin, you maintain full control over the organisation’s intellectual property – an important consideration if this is an area of concern.

Our approach

Haskoning has a proven methodology for developing custom digital twins. We use a recognised framework based on 30+ years of experience partnering with organisations to deliver successful digital transformations. With an enterprise architecture as the foundation, we utilise a value-driven, capability-based digital twinning approach. It’s a structure that accounts for factors like interoperability, security and data governance – and gives you opportunities for quick wins as well as future-proofing for greater long-term value. Importantly, we don’t disappear and develop custom digital twins in a silo – we co-create them with you. This ensures the result provides measurable value and achieves agreed outcomes.
