The focus now is about how we construct our assets and how we operate.. We have important questions to answer: how do we drive greater levels of manufacturing (DfMA) and more productive growth into the sector?
Toyota, who are fantastic at lean manufacturing, welcome competitors to look at their processes.They realise that it's not just about understanding the how, because what Toyota are doing requires a different mindset, a different set of ambitions.
Without those things, understanding the process won’t help..The bottom line with respect to our current situation is that the world isn’t going to become any less uncertain, any time soon.The pandemic has highlighted our ability to make large, successful shifts, and to do so very quickly.
Rather than resisting change out of fear of uncertainty, we should embrace it.Let’s use the uncertainty to fuel a change in our processes and find a better way of doing things.
Often it happens that opportunities have been with us all along, we were just too nervous to take them.
Now we find that our risk has increased anyway, and so we really have nothing left to lose..and we have continued to expand on and optimise Platforms and other MMC methodologies in our work with both public and private sector clients.
We’ve never sought to patent our work and we have open sourced the code for both of our construction design apps - SEISMIC and PRISM.Our goal is to bring about maximum benefit for the wider industry and society.
We encourage our clients to join us on this journey by allowing others to benefit from the knowledge and systems we create for each project.This creates a kind of reinforcing circle across the public and private sectors.
