SAMPLE MISSION: Create a Video Project Profile for <Project>

Missions are structured, real-work assignments inside Twennie that turn everyday professional activities into intentional learning, collaboration, and measurable progress.

A mission is not a training exercise or a hypothetical task. It is a clearly defined piece of work with a purpose, timeframe, effort estimate, and expected outcomes — designed to be completed during real project cycles, including periods of lighter workload.

Leaders and teams can create their own missions to guide internal improvements, business development activities, research, marketing efforts, or skill-building initiatives. Missions can be linked to Twennie learning units, assigned to individuals or groups, and completed collaboratively, allowing teams to capture momentum instead of waiting for “perfect” conditions.

This page shows a sample mission to demonstrate how structure, context, and guidance come together — making it easy for teams to replicate the format for their own work.

A light-workload project that turns real work into real marketing.

This sample assignment demonstrates how teams can create their own light-workload projects on Twennie by producing a video project profile — complete with background, roles, interviews, and storytelling guidance.

This sample Twennie assignment shows teams how to create and manage their own light-workload projects by developing a short video project profile. Using the Kingsmill Bridge Rehabilitation as an example, it provides detailed background, team structure, and interview guidance to help professionals capture technical excellence and human stories on camera. The unit models how to include timelines, budgets, approvals, and deliverables so staff can replicate the format for their own projects.

Purpose

To produce a short, engaging video that showcases the recently completed Kingsmill Bridge Rehabilitation project. The finished video will highlight community impact, technical excellence, and the people behind the work. It will be used on the firm’s website, social channels, and in proposal packages. This assignment provides creative, non-billable work that supports marketing, client relations, and staff morale during a light workload period.

Why it matters

Video project profiles help bring technical work to life. A single two-minute clip can do what a ten-page project sheet cannot — show the sights, sounds, and human stories of a project in motion. They remind clients that infrastructure isn’t just steel and concrete; it’s connection, mobility, and safety.

For internal teams, producing these videos builds storytelling and collaboration skills that directly translate to proposal writing and presentations. It also gives employees a sense of pride and visibility. Clients love seeing real people describe the challenges and solutions of a project. When filmed well, a project video becomes both a marketing tool and a morale boost.

The <Kingsmill Bridge Rehabilitation> Project is ideal for this exercise: it <was completed on time, within budget, and reopened a vital commuter link between two growing suburbs. Community feedback was excellent, making it a natural choice for a story that balances technical rigor and public benefit.>

Background

SAMPLE PROJECT BACKGROUND: <The Kingsmill Bridge Rehabilitation Project was one of the firm’s most technically demanding and community-visible transportation projects in recent years. The original Kingsmill Bridge was constructed in 1954, designed to carry modest rural traffic across the Little Thames River. Over the decades, population growth and heavier vehicles pushed the bridge beyond its intended capacity. Inspections in 2020 revealed significant deck deterioration and bearing corrosion, prompting a full structural and aesthetic rehabilitation.

Work began in April 2023 after a condensed design-build procurement led by the City of Riverton. The project involved complete deck replacement, bearing upgrades, localized girder repairs, new parapet walls, waterproofing, and a widened pedestrian walkway with decorative railings inspired by the town’s historic downtown district. One of the project’s major innovations was the use of high-performance concrete (HPC) overlays and carbon-fiber reinforcement on the underside of girders—an approach that extended the bridge’s service life by another 50 years while minimizing closures.

The firm’s Bridges & Structures Group led the engineering, supported by Environmental Services, Geotechnical, and Transportation Planning. The team’s collaboration with the City’s in-house engineers ensured decisions were made quickly, keeping the project on schedule despite one of the wettest summers on record.

At peak activity, more than 25 personnel were involved, including designers, inspectors, field engineers, and contractors from Crown Civil Ltd. The bridge reopened on time in October 2024, ahead of the community’s Fall Festival—a milestone that drew praise from both council and residents.

This assignment gives staff a chance to transform that achievement into a compelling story. The finished video will highlight not just what was built, but who built it and why it matters.>
