Tetra Tech gains natural language access to complex finance data with Oracle AI
Tetra Tech, a global engineering and infrastructure consulting firm, consolidated over 100 ERP systems into Oracle E-Business Suite on OCI, then built an interactive analytics platform using Oracle Autonomous AI Lakehouse and OCI Generative AI. Using Oracle Digital Assistant's text, chat, and voice interfaces plus open-source large language models (Cohere and Llama) in Oracle Generative AI, finance and project teams pose conversational-language questions about profitability and performance and get natural-language answers that are correct almost 100% of the time, per the company. Tetra Tech is also working with Oracle to make the chatbot proactively flag risks like potential project budget overruns and plans to deploy AI agents to automate tasks such as fixing transaction errors and streamlining field-staff time entry.

How Bouygues Construction Drives Sustainable Building Innovation With Digital Twins
Bouygues Construction, a global construction and infrastructure company based in France, built custom digital twin applications on NVIDIA Omniverse using the OpenUSD framework to unify 3D data from Revit, SolidWorks, and Cesium into a single collaborative environment. Using NVIDIA Isaac Sim, the company generates photorealistic synthetic training data for AI-based computer vision models covering rare or hazardous jobsite scenarios, and uses NVIDIA RTX PRO GPUs for real-time ray tracing. The approach delivered a 5x improvement in data integration speed and enabled safer job site planning through AI-driven construction site simulations and predictive scenario testing.
