, is integrating sustainable energy solutions into their data centre designs.

The selected approach to Basic/Scheme Design and Detailed Design will impact the project’s ability to deliver the project intent and optimise value.This includes the way the work is planned and the way organisations are contracted and integrated..

In my next post, I will discuss Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) and how value can be delivered and efficiencies derived from its application.In this blog, I reflect on how you approach planning for design with emergence..I was asked to look at creating a schedule for the design of a modular, intensified-pharmaceutical plant, beyond its conceptual stage.

This project looked at delivering a new technology to the company in a new and radical way.Although the core ideas had been established, the next question was how this concept would be physicalised in a way that preserved and enhanced its potential value, in a business, like all, with multiple levels of moving parts..

The standard way of scheduling such a study simply results in stress for those doing the work and/or the project manager.

Scheduling an organic integration is like trying to Christmas-wrap a puppy.At the moment, there are lots of buzzwords in the construction industry around digital, construction technology.

These include terms like AI, machine learning and quantum computing.However, all of them require data, and that data needs to be collected and mapped spatially.

While the industry is excited about the general digitisation of the built environment, asBuilt feels that what we really need to be focusing on is spatial mapping.Knowing at what point a photograph was taken unlocks where the data lands and therefore adds value.
