Seamless Integration in Action: How TRC Technologies and e-Magic Deliver a Unified Digital Twin Experience

As smart infrastructure and data-driven strategies become the new standard, digital twins are transforming how assets are conceived, managed, and optimized throughout their lifecycle. At TRC Technologies, we’re proud to be leading this evolution with our Nexus Infinity platform—an engine for early-stage asset modeling and asset information management.

Now, through a strategic partnership with e-Magic and their powerful TwinWorX platform, we are taking digital twin capabilities to the next level – delivering a full lifecycle solution that spans from design through to ongoing operations and maintenance.

Bridging the Gap: From Data Capture to Operational Intelligence

Nexus Infinity lays the foundation. Purpose-built for early-stage asset modeling, data capture, and system integration, it centralizes complex project data from the start, giving stakeholders a single source of truth throughout design, construction, and commissioning.

Once the project moves from development to active operations, e-Magic’s TwinWorX platform takes the reins, activating the digital twin and bringing data to life.

This is where our integration shines.

TwinWorX brings Nexus Infinity’s BIM and asset data to life through real-time visualization, predictive analytics, automation, and performance insights.  It delivers a frictionless transition from construction to operations, maintaining data continuity, preserving design intent, and unlocking immediate operational value.

Inside the Integration: How it Works

The integration between Nexus Infinity and TwinWorX® enables a seamless handover from design and commissioning into active operational intelligence. Here’s how the actual integration unfolds:

• Step 1: Structured Data Foundation

  Nexus Infinity captures and structures rich BIM and asset metadata throughout the design and commissioning phases. This data forms the digital backbone that TwinWorX® leverages during operations, enabling zero data loss and trusted handover.

• Step 2: Asset Modeling with DTDL Digital Twins

  Assets are modelled into Azure Digital Twins Definition Language (DTDL)-based digital twins. These models mirror the physical environment, defining assets, their relationships, telemetry, commands, and properties—enabling intelligent data binding, simulation, and contextual analytics within a federated data model.

• Step 3: Real-Time Data Integration and Enrichment

  Through its Datahub, TwinWorX ingests telemetry from BMS, IoT, SCADA, and other systems via secure, standards-based protocols like BACnet, ModBus, and REST. These real-time data streams are bound directly to DTDL-based digital twins, bringing operational models to life with live sensor input, enabling real-time monitoring, control, and alerting.

• Step 4: Unified TwinWorX-BIM Environment

  TwinWorX integrates the facility’s digital twins with Nexus Infinity’s BIM geometry and asset metadata, aligning real-time data with spatial context and asset lineage. This enables intuitive 3D navigation, asset-level insights, and a seamless digital thread from design intent to operational behavior.

• Step 5: Operational Intelligence Activation

  With a living digital twin in place, operations teams use TwinWorX’s Single Pane of Glass to monitor real-time performance, manage alarms, run predictive maintenance, and automate workflows. The TwinWorX Copilot provides natural language interaction and AI-guided decision support to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and asset longevity – supporting fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) and generating valuable ESG reports.

Proven Success with Digital Twin-Enabled Operations

The TRC Technologies and e-Magic partnership builds on a strong foundation of real-world success with TwinWorX® across global infrastructure projects.

Brookfield Asset Management deployed TwinWorX during the construction and commissioning of a new 34-story office tower in downtown Toronto to ensure the platform was fully equipped with asset data at handover. This approach enabled a seamless transition into operations, supporting real-time monitoring, 3D visualization, and optimized energy performance from day one.

Sinarmas Land implemented TwinWorX in what is recognized as Indonesia’s first smart building. The system was integrated during construction to embed rich asset data into the digital twin, ensuring a smooth operational launch. With centralized dashboards, live telemetry, and intelligent insights, the building set a new benchmark for connected, high-performance facilities in the region.

These implementations highlight how TwinWorX enables a smooth continuum from construction to operations, delivering data-rich, operations-ready digital twins that drive efficiency, sustainability, and informed decision-making.

The Benefits of the TRC & e-Magic Partnership

The TRC Technologies and e-Magic partnership unlocks a range of powerful advantages for our clients:

• End-to-end lifecycle coverage: From concept to operation, the full lifecycle of an asset is digitally captured and optimized.

• Seamless data continuity: Eliminates data silos between design and operations teams, improving accuracy and reducing rework.

• Smarter maintenance: Sophisticated alarming and alert management, fault detection and diagnostics (FDD), and predictive analytics empower teams to act proactively, reducing costs and unplanned outages.

• Operational efficiency: Real-time performance monitoring along with trending insights enable better energy use, equipment tracking, and asset longevity.

• Scalability: The integrated platform can scale across portfolios and sectors—smart buildings, utilities, manufacturing, and more.

• Minimal work, maximum continuity: leverage design and construction data models post-construction. Just activate and operate.

 Enabling the Future of Smart Infrastructure

This partnership is more than a technology handshake – it’s an operational strategy. TRC Technologies and e-Magic are delivering what the industry has long needed: a fully integrated, lifecycle-ready digital twin framework.

Together, Nexus Infinity and TwinWorX offer clients a smarter way to manage infrastructure – linking vision with execution, design with operations, and potential with performance.
