The R4WO project is a significant initiative by client De Werkvenootschap aimed at enhancing safety, mobility, and liveability around Ghent. The project involves the redesign of 22 intersections and constructing new bridges, tunnels, and underpasses to separate local and through traffic. Additionally, it includes the development of extensive cycling infrastructure, with over 12 kilometres of uninterrupted cycle paths.
Kurt Desimpelaere, BIM Manager for R4WO, accepted the award on behalf of BESIX, as member of BRAVO4. His leadership in digital collaboration and BIM innovation has boosted teamwork, problem-solving, and collaborative practices across all project stakeholders. By using Revizto’s platform, the BRAVO4 team is improving coordination between partners daily, paving the way for efficient project execution.
The Revizto Collaborator of the Year Awards recognise outstanding use of digital tools in construction. Winning this award highlights BESIX’s and BRAVO4’s commitment to smart collaboration in infrastructure projects.
Thank you to our teams, partners, and stakeholders! This recognition inspires us to keep building smarter and safer sustainable projects.
Revizto is a digital collaboration platform used in construction and infrastructure projects. It allows teams (architects, engineers, contractors, and project managers…) to work together more efficiently by centralising 3D models, 2D plans, and project data in one place. With Revizto, everyone involved in a project can view, comment on, and track changes in real time, helping to avoid mistakes, reduce delays, and improve coordination. The platform is especially useful for complex projects where multiple stakeholders need to stay aligned.
The BRAVO4 consortium is a partnership formed to execute the R4 West and East (R4WO) project in Ghent. This consortium comprises several entities, including BESIX, EPICo, I4B – The Belgian Infrastructure Fund, RID PPP (Rebel and Abrdn), and Stadsbader. Together, they are responsible for the design, construction, financing, and 30-year maintenance of the project.
