Tech Center Solutions

The objective of the concept generation phase is to develop a tech center concept that optimally meets the long-term needs of the customer. The key functional elements are defined and elaborated on together with the customer. Boundary conditions such as budget availability, timing requirements, availability and size of land are examined. The latest options in development processes, e.g., development environments and methodology, are considered when matching how the requirements from the development and operational organization can be best met under the given boundary conditions. The resulting tech center concept ensures maximum flexibility and optimal future-proofing.

The construction of a Tech Center requires highly sophisticated systems for which specialist partners are required. The objective of the procurement phase is to acquire the most suitable material and equipment to the best competitive conditions. A local procurement strategy, logistic plan and control procedure is developed and implemented. The construction and supply according to the project implementational schedule is initiated. Plans for inspections, status monitoring, port clearance and transportation activities are set up with the vendors. AVL supports with elaborating the technical specifications and support the customer to appoint the best partners.

The mission of the tech center is to effectively meet the engineering organization's needs. Ensuring the availability of equipment, utilities, and test systems is a major challenge, ranging from measurement sensors to central supply utilities. However, the goal extends beyond mere availability. The service and operations organization must be capable of covering test field planning, testbed operation and automation, data quality analysis, and infrastructure main-tenance, among other tasks. With our expertise and experience in maintaining, supporting, and operating over 7,000 test installations, we are the perfect partner for tech center's service and operation needs.

Our turnkey facility solutions provide perfectly integrated test systems. Our holistic approach ensures complete solutions, including the integration of measurement and test technology into new or existing facilities. Moreover, we specialize in technical building equipment, such as ventilation, electrical installations, and sensors, as well as central equipment like transformers and switchgear. Benefit from our expertise in comprehensive testing infrastructure.

At the heart of digital transformation is immersive reality, which includes VR, AR, 3D scanning, and advanced 360° visualization – a critical force for improving efficiency and quality across the value chain. It enhances internal and external collaboration and improves performance in engineering, service, maintenance, and training. This technology facilitates the handling of complex projects, addressing crucial details such as space, piping, and design review throughout and after project execution. Whether in VR collision checks, design reviews, or AR maintenance guidance, immersive reality transforms task execution. By having a holistic understanding of what is needed and how this technology can support the entire process, we are able to create unique, custom tools and methodologies.
