Omnicom Balfour Beatty has been recognised for its use of emerging technology at a recent awards ceremony.

The software firm was praised at the Transport for London (TfL) Supplier Awards, which recognise top suppliers who are contributing to the smooth running and improvement of the London Transport network.

With the use of the state-of-the-art OmniCapture3D, Omnicom Balfour Beatty supplies TfL with a means of surveying the 38 kilometers of Docklands Light Railway network remotely, improving the safety of the workforce and journey quality for the public. OmniCapture3D employs laser scanners, high-definition imaging and data sharing; technology which removes the need for manual surveying.

"At Balfour Beatty, we are leveraging the latest developments in digital to support our customers and champion innovation throughout the infrastructure industry."
