Michael Baker International launches LiveTwin, an open, ai-native digital twin platform for critical infrastructure.

Michael Baker International launches LiveTwin, an open, ai-native digital twin platform for critical infrastructure. 8 minutes ago Michael Baker International has launched LiveTwin, an open, AI-native digital twin platform already deployed across more than 1,400 facilities, built to turn fragmented infrastructure data into actionable insight. Michael Baker International has launched LiveTwin, the flagship solution of digitalMBI, the firm's digital innovation platform. Unveiled during the company's inaugural Tech Summit, LiveTwin creates a living digital representation of facilities, campuses, infrastructure and operations by connecting assets, systems, models and real-time data into a single intelligent environment. Built for owners, operators, public agencies and infrastructure professionals, LiveTwin unifies building information modelling (BIM), geographic information systems (GIS), reality capture, internet of things (IoT), enterprise systems and workflows into a shared operational view of the built environment. By connecting and contextualising data across these systems, LiveTwin creates a trusted foundation where AI can deliver real-time insights, automation and intelligent decision support. The open platform is already in use by early adopters across more than 1,400 facilities in the United States, representing more than 30 million square feet of managed space. These early access partners have been able to onboard in minutes rather than months, with some reporting performance improvements exceeding 20 times the legacy solutions they replaced. With the launch of LiveTwin, Michael Baker introduces the first in a growing portfolio of digitalMBI solutions designed to help clients address increasingly complex infrastructure challenges. Built as an AI-native platform from day one, LiveTwin embeds AI directly into the data foundation rather than layering it on afterward, combining digital engineering, data ontology, analytics and operational technologies to help organisations scale knowledge, automate workflows and accelerate decision-making across the asset lifecycle at enterprise scale. LiveTwin sits within digitalMBI, Michael Baker's digital innovation ecosystem created to help owners and operators modernise how infrastructure is designed, delivered, operated and maintained. Working alongside the company's enterprise AI platform, Titan, LiveTwin combines AI reasoning, automation and governance with engineering and infrastructure expertise, while ensuring clients retain ownership, control and traceability of their data. "The future of infrastructure depends on the ability to turn data into insight and insight into action," said Rod Malehmir, Chief Technology Officer at Michael Baker International. "Our industry does not have a data creation problem. It has a data connection problem. Infrastructure information exists everywhere, but too often remains locked inside disconnected systems. LiveTwin creates the digital foundation that allows AI to work across that information in a trusted and meaningful way. When data, context, and AI come together, owners can move beyond seeing their assets to understanding performance, anticipating needs, and making better decisions about the future." Unlike traditional digital twin solutions focused primarily on visualisation, LiveTwin is designed to operationalise data across the asset lifecycle. By creating a contextualised understanding of assets, operations and infrastructure systems, the platform helps organisations improve resiliency, manage risk, prioritise investments and transition from reactive operations to predictive, intelligence-driven asset management.
