Autodesk Digital Twin Program Adds Michael Baker International

Michael Baker International, a company in engineering, consulting and digital solutions, announces that the firm has been named to the Autodesk Digital Twin Solution Provider Program, a global partner program honoring organizations with expertise in delivering, scaling and sustaining digital twin solutions using Autodesk Tandem.

As one of a select number of companies accepted into the Autodesk Digital Twin Solution Provider Program, this marks a milestone in the firm’s progression from descriptive and informative digital twins toward predictive, enterprise scale twin solutions for transportation, facilities, and infrastructure clients.  Participation in the program validates Michael Baker’s ability to connect design, construction and operational data into a digital twin environment.

As a Digital Twin Solution Provider, Michael Baker will work closely with Autodesk to implement the Autodesk Tandem platform as a system of record for asset information for the firm’s clients, enabling owners and operators to establish a single source of truth across the asset lifecycle. 

“Joining the Autodesk Digital Twin Solution Provider Program positions Michael Baker to further accelerate how our clients adopt and scale digital twins across their portfolios,” says Rod Malehmir, Ph.D., chief technology officer at Michael Baker International. “Looking ahead, this partnership will support more connected project delivery, stronger continuity from design through operations and measurable improvements in how infrastructure and facilities are managed over time.”

Michael Baker has been a leader in digital twin strategy, platform integration and cross-practice workflows that align building information modeling (BIM), geographic information systems (GIS), reality capture, sensor data and analytics into cohesive digital environments.  Acceptance into the  Autodesk Digital Twin Solution Provider Program reflects the firm’s commitment to advancing owner-centric digital twin solutions that are scalable, standards-based and focused on operational outcomes, the company says.

“This program is an important pillar of our overall digital twin vision,” said Joseph Bartorelli, vice president, Digital Solutions at Michael Baker International.  “Autodesk Tandem plays a key role in how we partner with clients to establish a reliable digital foundation at handover and evolve that foundation into something that supports forecasting, optimization and decision support over the life of an asset.”

“Michael Baker International has been a valued Autodesk customer for years, and it’s exciting to see them expand their focus into digital twin-enabled building operations with Tandem. As they continue investing in this space, we’re looking forward to working together to help our collective customers turn fragmented building data into actionable business intelligence for smarter, more efficient operations,” says Hayli Hay, director of Digital Twin Partnerships at Autodesk.
