Development and Innovation
Their success is based on active development and innovation. They constantly seek, develop and test new procedures, software and service. They are on the frontline of deploying advanced digital tools and operating models, such as virtual technologies, the Big Room, Lean and BIM models. Each year, they invest approximately 6–8 per cent of consolidated net sales in research and development.

A good example is the Digital twin that will transform property maintenance and services.
