Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is set to revolutionize infrastructure project management by incorporating Artificial Intelligence into its operations. This cutting-edge initiative seeks innovative startups to help develop an Agentic AI-based Project Management System to improve real-time tracking of construction progress and predict potential delays.

Unlike traditional software, DMRC's proposed system aims to actively reason and plan project workflows, making it more responsive to real-world challenges such as labor shortages and equipment failures. The selection process will focus on innovation and competition over standard procurement methods, leading to a groundbreaking collaboration with shortlisted startups.

The successful development of this AI platform will allow DMRC to enhance compliance check automation, utilize drones for on-site monitoring, and generate predictive insights, transforming how infrastructure projects are managed in the capital. The invitation for submissions is open until March 2, with significant incentives for successful proposals.
