I am sure that participation in the championship will be a useful experience and a significant line in the resume of the participants."

In 2022, the contestants developed measures to improve the efficiency of the design and construction industry based on Industry 4.0 technologies and ESG principles.

The team "IONE&DONE" from Kazan National Research Technological University, recognized as the champion of the field, had no equal in completing the task.

The second place in the final of the "Project Engineering" was taken by the team of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University "PoliEngTeam" consisting of Ekaterina Belova, Vadim Kudryavtsev, Daria Shabunina and Nikita Kudryavtsev. The team also became the winner in the "Breakthrough Solution" and "Best Video Business Card" nominations.

"The CASE-IN Championship is an incredible experience and opportunity, expanding horizons and interacting with leading construction and oil and gas companies— the captain of the team shared her impressions Daria Shabunina. — Participation in such case championships is an increase in knowledge and experience, the ability to find solutions to non-standard tasks. Throughout all three stages, we have been solving cases from the industry leader, NIPIGAZ. The proposed cases are related to the use of Industry 4.0 technologies, aimed either at reducing construction time or ensuring labor protection. Our team felt interested and involved in this topic, and in the final stage we tried to show ourselves worthily and become a part of the history of the jubilee season of the championship. We thank all the organizers and our university for this opportunity.".

The H-bomb team, which included students of St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering Nikita Polyakov (captain) and Egor Tarasenko, as well as a student of Orenburg State University Daria Ovchinnikova, was awarded the bronze medal.

"In the first part, we were faced with the task of integrating industry 4.0 technologies as much as possible into the design, construction and operation of a hydrogen production plant. We have proposed a set of technologies, having tested them for economic efficiency. We compared two construction sites, the traditional one and the technologies we proposed, proving the optimality of our option.", " He told me Nikita Polyakov.

In the new season, participants will propose ideas to eliminate technical and economic barriers in design and construction activities and ensure the effectiveness of the facility design process. To try your hand at "Project Engineering" in the XI season of the CASE-IN, it is necessary to assemble a team and register.
