The single model environment (SME) that was used in this case was aim to help overcome several important challenges, primarily the need to be able to exchange information in real time. At the same time, the SME would permit a more realistic understanding of the design, with additional simulations that applied to overcoming this challenge.

One of the challenges that SME approached was digital vertical integration.
The idea of digital vertical integration is in line with what has been previously discussed in the previous paragraphs: in a construction project of the size and importance of the Heathrow Terminal, it became essential to have all actors cooperate actively on the given design. Besides the fact that information needed to flow between these actors, accessibility was also an important challenge.

One challenge that remains in this phase in terms of moving the project into operations is the implementation of knowledge in the organization.
