Introduction to the I5 Operational Ecosystem

The I5 Operational Ecosystem creates an integrated network of platforms, technologies, and methodologies designed to work in harmony, eliminating traditional information silos and providing real-time visibility across the entire development lifecycle.

Central to this approach is the principle that core digital platforms are explicitly owned, procured, administered, updated, and controlled by the owner, who grants appropriate access to partners. The governance of specific construction technologies used by partners is determined by the owner on a case-by-case basis.

This ecosystem underpins the I5 Model's principles of productization, integration, and data centrality.
