Heathrow Airport has gone live with Heathrow Explorer, a geospatial platform from Esri UK, that provides a real-time, single view of infrastructure and assets, enabling teams to make faster and better decisions.

Heathrow is one of the world’s most complex infrastructure environments – with a £4.5bn portfolio, including 450 projects, and 412 project managers, along with thousands of staff from delivery partners – so how does it manage its asset information?

Teams from eight businesses have made the shortlist for Digital Team of the Year at the Digital Construction Awards 2026.

Heathrow is using One Click LCA’s decarbonisation platform in planning new construction or renovation projects.

Heathrow Airport has appointed McLaren Construction to design and build a new logistics centre at its Eastern Business Park.

This category recognises the use of digitalisation, digital methodologies and technologies to enhance health, safety and wellbeing among workers on construction projects.

Here, we detail the finalists for Digital Collaboration of the Year.
