Driving success with DPD

A 4D BIM model and Construction Sequencing Plan was required prior to the start of construction and was updated at monthly intervals in line with regular schedule updates. This model was used to identify and mitigate safety, sequencing, coordination and logistical issues throughout the development of the project and schedule.

Tánaiste visits the project

In December 2022, we were delighted to host the then Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Leo Varadkar, Enterprise Ireland Nordics and IDA Ireland at the project during his three-day trade mission to Denmark.
