Construct-X
Use cases
Shared services
Data ecosystem Description
Construct-X develops digital standards, tools and methods to enable digital and trust-based collaboration in temporary value creation networks in the construction industry, industrial and plant engineering and the skilled trades. To this end, a cloud-based open source reference architecture is being developed and various cloud edge applications relevant to the construction sector are being integrated into it. In addition, Construct-X is developing technologies for the multi-provider cloud edge continuum. This enables the latency-free, a secure/loss-free processing of data on construction sites and a reduction in the required bandwidth.
The aim of Construct-X is to increase productivity, efficiency and transparency in the construction industry and in construction projects and to minimize construction-related impacts and interventions in nature and the environment in order to effectively achieve sustainability goals. The consistent use of data is an essential factor for this, which has so far only been used in part and often in a less collaborative manner in the diverse and heterogeneously organized construction industry. Construct-X is laying the foundations for the development of federated data spaces, drawing on experience already gained in other sectors.

ESG documentation and environmental reporting
Problem definition: New regulations at EU level (EU Taxonomy Regulation, CSRD) require valid statements on environmental impacts at an ever earlier stage in the construction process and then over the entire life cycle. To achieve this, different IT systems must be networked with decentralized calculation processes and mapped in the data models throughout the life cycle.
Goals: Definition of information requirements from the target systems to the various data sources.
Implementation of relevant data exchange processes using connectors for recording, provision, decentralized processing, linking and forwarding along the construction value chain.
Adaptation of required interfaces and identification of missing ontologies.
Installation and integration of prototype edge processes, e.g. in the form of aggregated sensor data on energy consumption.
Support, integration and initiation of normative processes for data classification and their open exchange (e.g. DIN SPEC 91475).
Validation of the function using predefined use cases.
Description of the scenario: A valid and complete provision of data on environmental impacts requires both product-specific and process-specific parameters from the entire process chain of planning, production, construction, operation and dismantling.
While product-related data forms the basis for action and decision-making for sustainable construction and operation, it is primarily process-related data that creates the majority of the competitive difference. This requires data from many process participants to be networked and intelligently evaluated.
The process-related data in particular, which must be regulated and recorded for ESG on a large scale in a characteristic value-oriented manner, is particularly relevant to edge processes as sensor-based data, which must be aggregated, converted and forwarded decentrally to the required characteristic values.
