This paper presents a particular situation about technology optimization required for the project execution of the Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Subah Causeway bridge pillars in Kuwait. The initial approach to technological solution regarding the mounting process of the reinforcement cage of the pillars, was not efficient for the minimum time and maximum precision criteria. A new technological system design was proposed and adopted after several attempts, from January to March 2015 through the collaboration of the authors via Skype.
