CM Labs Simulations, the leading vendor of simulation-based training solutions in the construction industry, has announced the Intellia Workforce Training System, a workforce development solution that standardizes, manages, and scales simulation-based operator training.

• Attendees can experience the Intellia Workforce Training System in action at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 in Las Vegas, North Hall, booth #N11839.

As construction organizations face growing pressure to train more operators with fewer resources, many are struggling with disconnected tools, inconsistent outcomes, and limited visibility into training performance.

The Intellia Workforce Training System supports consistent, accountable training with measurable results.

A System Approach to Simulation-Based Training

The Intellia Workforce Training System manages the full simulation training lifecycle with benefits for all stakeholders across a training organization:

• Training Curriculum: Provides structured, simulator-based exercises for hands-on skill development alongside web-based content for theory, preparation, and reinforcement, built on CM Labs’ extensive catalog of physics-based heavy equipment simulations. This approach gives operators a clear, repeatable path to proficiency grounded in realistic machine behavior and jobsite conditions.
• Training Management Tools: Delivers the ability to manage the curriculum, track performance, and generate reports through one system. As programs expand, these features support real-time coaching and training tailored to individual needs, while maintaining oversight without adding manual tracking or extra administrative work. 
• Simulation Hardware and Auxiliary Stations: Uses training hardware and supporting components that reflect real jobsite equipment and crew member roles, with entry-level through fully immersive training environments. This allows programs to expand across different machines and configurations while keeping skills instruction and performance evaluation consistent.

“Construction training teams are being asked to do more to solve the labor shortage with less, without compromising safety or training quality,” said Lisa Barbieri, Vice President of Marketing and Strategic Relationships at CM Labs.

“The Intellia Workforce Training System brings structure, visibility, and consistency to operator training, helping organizations reduce risk and scale their programs with confidence.”

AI Integrated Into the Training Workflow

To further support training programs as they scale, and as part of CM Labs’ broader strategy to leverage AI to deliver greater training value and empower instructors and trainees, the Intellia Workforce Training System introduces an AI Assistant within the training environment.

Launching initially with the Tracked Excavator simulation curriculum and demonstrated live at CONEXPO booth #N11839, the AI Assistant provides contextual support to instructors and apprentices by answering questions about exercises, objectives, and system functionality during training. Designed to work alongside both trainees and instructors, the AI Assistant takes on routine questions and tasks, reducing manual overhead, helping keep sessions moving, and allowing instructors to focus on coaching, evaluation, and higher-value instruction.

Designed for Workforce Development at Scale

Designed for organizations scaling professional simulation-based training programs, the Intellia Workforce Training System supports consistent, accountable training with measurable results. By integrating curriculum, training management, simulators, and AI-assisted support into a single system, CM Labs enables safer, more efficient, and more predictable operator development.
