According to Phil Langley, Board Director for Creative Technologies, ‘her industry-leading work sits at the intersection between architecture, design for manufacture (DfMA) and digital innovation.’.

Therefore, another solution which might evolve in the process of transforming construction would be the creation of a digital marketplace.Such a scenario would stipulate certain quality and ethical thresholds for supplier participation.

It could be similar to an Amazon model, but with products, sub-assemblies and systems supporting and providing value-driven data.The data would reflect jobs supported, social value delivered, net-zero carbon emissions facilitated, safety promoted, as well as compliance with regulations and standards..Staying focused: collaboration, disruption & diversification.

The benefits of transforming construction will be enormous, but it won’t happen overnight.However, as long as we have a clear and compelling vision, and are all aiming for the same end goal, companies will be able to plot their own path to reach it.

The journey will be important and it must be handled properly.

Industry must have the capability and capacity to deliver new solutions.Every gram of material you take out of the manufacturing process, out of each assembly process, has a massive multiplier effect in terms of material reduction.

This is an important part of sustainable design.These processes then become highly repeatable, enabling greater levels of automation in construction.

We can turn to techniques such as robotic welding to make the parts, for example, and use popular distribution warehousing equipment on site.Such processes require fewer people and increase worker safety.
