Bryden Wood launch P-DfMA solution for offices with Landsec

Flexibility in modular construction.

As a result, we need to look at broadening out the outcomes we expect to get from construction projects, both now and in the future.We need to focus on the wider value piece.

We’ve got to get under the skin of the client, or Government department, and understand what’s really valuable.Moving to a value-based process requires us to be braver.It requires more innovation..

Using process design thinking to highlight efficiency.One thing which happens when working this way, is that we’re forced to approach projects differently.

Design to Value offers unique benefits but can also reveal some uncomfortable truths.. As an example: we were evaluating a brief to build a new carbonated drinks factory in Africa.

The initial projected cost of £70 million was determined to be prohibitively expensive, and so the client asked for this to be reduced., the UK’s innovation agency, in recognition of its transformational potential, demonstrating the benefits to all constituents of the platforms approach to design and construction.

Merging Manufacturing and Construction The Forge is a key moment in construction..It is the world’s first major commercial development to be designed and built using a platform approach to Design for Manufacture and Assembly (P-DfMA).

Bryden Wood has developed P-DfMA over many years..It takes lessons from the manufacturing industry and applies them to construction.
