KEY TOPICS:
Topic #1: "Waste & Inefficiencies" - Identification and Impacts
The building industry, just like any other industry, deals with the concept of “waste” and inefficiencies with time, manpower, and materials. Those are the three pillars that distinguish a successful project from a catastrophic one. We will discuss in this session how the different players in the construction industry identify “waste” and inefficiencies from their perspective and develop methods to control its adverse effect on their business and subsequently on the project. Waste is a product of repeated errors and therefore identifying where the errors occur is the first step in the path of increasing productivity, maximizing efficiency, and unlocking potential profits for the owner.
Topic #2: BIM Integration-From Design through Construction to Facilities management
Building Information Modeling is and can be a fluid tool that starts with programming and design and continues to evolve and develop as a single element shared and used by all from “Concept” to construction integration and maintenance and operations that is “rich” with information. The Computer Model, the Construction Documents, and everything else are simply instruction manuals for the contractors to make physical what the designers have imagined, and what the owner is going to use and maintain.
Topic #3: The Evolution of Capital Project Design and Delivery in the Public Sector
LEAN, IPD, and P3 are among the evolving delivery tools and methods that encourage the collaboration among the primary parties – owner, designer, and builder to reduce waste and add value. However, changes to the project requirements, goals, and potential challenges, can cause them to become inefficient, too. In this session we will be discussing the differences between the project delivery methods and emphasizing through practical examples how contracting and project delivery methodology increasingly requires innovation and flexibility to maximize project performance.
Concluding with a World Cafe open discussion.
Join in COLLABORATIVE discussions with capital project owners, architects, engineers, planners, contractors, program managers, and others working in the capital projects industry.
There will be presentations, panel discussions, table discussions, and information sharing to explore challenges and find solutions.
