AI Champion | Tampere universities

AI Champion is a Co-Innovation project coordinated by Tampere University, which aims to enhance the flow of information from data silos into practice using artificial intelligence (AI) agents. The project partners are Tampere University, the University of Oulu, Granlund, Fira and Koja. Each partner has their own sub-project and focus areas, that together form AI Champion.

Background

The fragmentation and compartmentalization of information into the so-called data silos has been identified as a significant challenge in the Real Estate and Construction industry.

There has been an attempt to develop a national reference model in scattered sets in Finland for several years, but this is not enough in the international market. A systemic development of data management is required instead.

Goal

AI Champion aims to enrich and stream building services design, procurement and supply chain data in digital form across different interfaces to the systems of different actors.

The end result will be new innovative and scalable data-based concepts, services and tools for all the identified interfaces of the construction lifecycle, where data has not previously been transferred.

We want to strategically influence the regulatory environment changes in the EU-level so that the consortium companies can be pioneers in the international markets with their new data-based products and services.
