Most large infrastructure firms want the benefits of reality capture but struggle to deploy it consistently across a distributed workforce. This session shares the honest, two-year account of how CDM Smith's Digital Engineering Solutions group is building that capability across a 7,000-person global firm: the three-tier twin framework we developed to scale capture across disciplines and geographies, the organizational and investment realities we encountered along the way, and the technology workflow moving us from everyday field capture toward 4D Gaussian Splatting and Spatial AI. Attendees get a practitioner's field report, not a finished case study.
