ALICE Technologies is the creator of the world’s first generative construction and optimisation platform, ALICE. It is used by major contractors, such as Costain, Mace, Skanska-Costain-Strabag JV (HS2), Align JV, Implenia, Zachry Construction and more.
ALICE allows teams to understand how long a project will take, what it will cost and what is needed to deliver it.
ALICE Technologies’ purpose is to help customers reduce risk, cut construction costs and build time. On average, it helps teams achieve 17% reductions in project durations and 14% labour cost savings.
Schedules are among the most powerful levers on a construction project, shaping cost, risk and delivery timelines. Yet even with advanced scheduling platforms, unlocking meaningful insights can require significant manual effort. Teams often export data into spreadsheets, validate logic changes manually, and create narrative explanations for stakeholders. This process consumes valuable time, reduces transparency, and makes it difficult to clearly explain not just what has changed, but why. This is what ALICE set out to change.

Hive Autonomy is a Norwegian technology company that develops and delivers retrofit-based systems for remote operation and autonomy of heavy machinery across construction, mining, logistics and industrial sectors. By combining advanced sensors, control systems and AI-driven software, Hive enables existing machines to be operated safely and efficiently from a control room, or to perform repetitive tasks autonomously.
The company’s platform allows customers to increase productivity by 15–25 percent, improve margins by up to 60 percent and dramatically reduce health and safety risks by removing people from hazardous environments. Because the solution upgrades existing machinery rather than requiring new equipment, it provides a fast, cost-effective and sustainable path to automation.
Hive’s approach is built on three core principles: safety by design, interoperability with all major machine brands, and a phased roadmap from teleoperation to full autonomy. The technology is already in operation with leading Nordic contractors and industrial partners, demonstrating measurable gains in efficiency, safety and sustainability.
Hive’s vision is to make autonomy a natural part of industrial operations worldwide—empowering companies to build, move and produce more safely, more sustainably and at lower cost.
