Sir Robert McAlpine entered a strategic partnership with Bridgit on 13 May 2026 to adopt AI workforce planning software for complex UK infrastructure projects. The platform builds on Sir Robert McAlpine historical workforce data to surface patterns and suggestions on skills, experience, availability, location and tenure across past projects and certifications. Planners query the system for AI-powered smart suggestions on team assembly, shifting from spreadsheets to data-driven decisions that align plans with the project pipeline and support junior talent development. Mallorie Brodie, CEO of Bridgit, stated that Sir Robert McAlpine operates at the highest level of complexity with programmes that span years and teams that must perform without margin for error, and data shows companies leading in workforce planning have measurably longer planning horizons and lower attrition than peers.
