Digital
At McD BERL, we harness the power of data and advanced software solutions to address complex challenges across both built and natural environments. Our digital-first approach blends cutting-edge technologies with deep domain expertise to deliver smarter, adaptive outcomes for buildings, infrastructure, and cities—driving innovation, efficiency, and sustainability at every scale.
Through design automation, we streamline processes such as analysis and documentation—reducing manual effort and minimizing human error. From parametric modeling to automated code compliance, our tools accelerate project delivery while ensuring precision and quality.
Our city modeling capabilities equip urban planners, architects, and policymakers with actionable insights. By integrating geospatial data, demographic analysis, and environmental simulations, we build digital urban ecosystems that visualize infrastructure needs, climate impacts, and growth scenarios—enabling data-driven, resilient planning.
At the core of our methodology is computational design, which enables the generation of performance-optimized solutions. Using algorithms and data inputs, we simulate thousands of iterations to identify ideal outcomes for energy efficiency, structural performance, and occupant comfort, unlocking innovation and accuracy in problem-solving.
Our use of digital twins brings built environments to life with real-time data integration. These virtual replicas of physical assets monitor performance, predict maintenance needs, and enhance facility management. This continuous feedback loop bridges design, construction, and operations, ensuring long-term asset performance and value.
We adopt a performance-based design approach that ensures alignment between design intent and real-world results. By simulating energy use, daylighting, thermal comfort, and more, we go beyond prescriptive codes to deliver measurable environmental and functional outcomes for every project.
