Jaimie Johnston on the Engineering Matters podcast: #34 crisis shelter for mass displacement

are necessary to drive sector-wide change.

Including discussions/reviews with the client, conversations, and formal RFQ with supply chain.If done with thoughtfulness they could help lubricate and develop the thinking, rather than creating disruptive re-work.

The difference between iteration and re-work needed to be understood..This was not a highly detailed schedule, to try and develop that would have been counterproductive.I believe it presents a way to plan and progress design within the complex area of new-technology-realisation which requires thinking beyond our traditional approaches of design-stages led by deliverables..

If we wanted to not only preserve the value identified in an innovative concept and technology but to enhance it, we needed to change the way we approach basic/scheme and detailed design..Professor John Dyson spent more than 25 years at GlaxoSmithKline, eventually ending his career as VP, Head of Capital Strategy and Design, where he focussed on developing a long-term strategic approach to asset management..

While there, he engaged Bryden Wood and together they developed the Front End Factory, a collaborative endeavour to explore how to turn purpose and strategy into the right projects – which paved the way for Design to Value.

He is committed to the betterment of lives through individual and collective endeavours.. As well as his business and pharmaceutical experience, Dyson is Professor of Human Enterprise at the University of Birmingham, focussing on project management, business strategy and collaboration.. Additionally, he is a qualified counsellor with a private practice and looks to bring the understanding of human behaviour into business and projects.. To learn more about our Design to Value philosophy, read Design to Value: The architecture of holistic design and creative technology by Professor John Dyson, Mark Bryden, Jaimie Johnston MBE and Martin Wood.On a somewhat similar note, the industry also needs to start making better use of its existing data.

We can’t expect to get into digital twins and smart assets, if we aren’t making the most of the data we already have access to.. Further exploration into the future of construction.Professor Glass explains that as we turn our efforts towards shaping the future of construction, one of the areas we need to prioritise is our action on net zero and climate change.

With construction currently contributing 39% to global carbon emissions, we simply aren’t moving fast enough and the issue needs to be brought forward.She also says that while her team has really begun to understand the business model innovation that’s possible, they don’t yet understand how to take it forward.
