Plus, with choices in the assembly, architectural outcomes can still be recognisably different and tailored..
How do we work with industry, academia and the business community to deliver results?.For all the terrible destruction COVID-19 has caused, perhaps the silver lining has been its role as a catalyst for a more rapid pace of change.
The government messaging is Build Back Better, incorporating a greener and faster element.We’re recognising the need for better outcomes, supporting things like levelling up the economy, delivering greater social value and driving a path to net-zero carbon emissions.It’s an encouraging shift, because we won’t achieve these goals simply by taking the lowest price, transferring risks down the supply chain, and using arcane procurement practices.
We need to see this recently accelerated pace of change continue, and perhaps go even further, as the government sets out its plans to drive an economic recovery through the way it invests in construction infrastructure..The Construction Playbook - making it possible.
The Construction Playbook has been a fantastic example of how quickly it’s possible to move.
Here you have people working in new circumstances, each with their own business imperatives, and yet the government was able to get the public and private sector together to create this document, to galvanise industry and achieve that level of buy-in.Developing a solution through iteration.
We repeat this sequence of steps until everyone involved is satisfied that all relevant expertise has been brought to bear on the solution and that the solution fully addresses all aspects of the problem.This iterative process might appear familiar, but what makes the Design to Value method different is that the focus is not simply on developing a detailed description of a solution to allow someone to build it.
It is to represent the evolving design in a way that is relevant to the stakeholders so they can understand the choices made and judge whether the design meets their needs.This is a unique advantage of our Chip Thinking®️ process.. Rather than showing increasingly detailed plans and elevations, we represent the solution in terms of what it does to solve the client’s problem.
