Thiess Spatial—What's New
Track: Architecture, Engineering, and Construction
Authors: Stephen Clark, Jason Clark

Established in 1933, Thiess is one of the largest construction, mining and services providers in Australia and SE Asia. Thiess currently have $17.5 billion of work in-hand under way across the Company in the Building, Civil, Mining, Process, Environmental services, Utilities services, and Facilities operations and maintenance sectors.
For a number of years Thiess have realized that virtually every aspect of its work is related to geography. It is developing spatial applications that support its core activities across all sectors in planning and engineering, emergency response and safety, property and land management, environmental protection, community services, asset management, transportation and logistics and general construction management.
This paper will discuss the Thiess system implementation rationale, deployment and development issues, and the benefits of the Thiess spatial system. In addition, we will present and discuss the benefits to business processes that may occur as a result of deploying such a system
