Regulators Love Artificial Intelligence

By Thomas Klein, Customer Success Manager, Transcend

A valuable lesson I learned several years ago as a civil engineering project manager was to involve regulators early in a project lifecycle. 

Creating an open dialogue with regulators during the conceptual design of a project significantly reduces the risk of incurring a major project delay during later project phases. Unfortunately, this isn’t common practice as regulators are historically involved very late in a project lifecycle.  I don’t believe this is on purpose; it’s just a function of necessity. But advancements in generative design technology and artificial intelligence can help us rethink why, and how, we should bring regulators earlier on in project lifecycles.
