Should we be automating existing practices, mechanising the horse, or adapting business processes to take the most advantage of the emergent technologies? @UFDCPDean shares his thoughts on the future of construction.

#TCNPlus #TransformingConstruction

Advocating that the biggest opportunities are in the co-deployment of technologies to deliver solutions, but integration challenges remain. @UFDCPDean argues that there’s still a long way to go until the full benefits of digitalisation are realised. #TCNPlus

'Platforms give companies a way to create value in a new way, and for them to capture value in a new way. They are creating change in multiple markets, blurring boundaries.' @AnnabelleGawer starts her presentation by giving an overview on platforms. #TCNPlus

Our speaker @AnnabelleGawer explains that platforms as an idea were used in a pre-digital age - these product platforms allow manufacturers to produce variety by adding on peripherals to a common core. #TCNPlus #TransformingConstruction

.@AnnabelleGawer provides us with a typology of platforms from her Research Policy paper; internal, industry (ecosystems), and supply chain platforms. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #TCNPlus #TransformingConstruction

.@jantevy joins us from @ebuilder, seeking to provide a tool for collaboration across the construction ecosystem to avoid information and value loss across project lifecycles. #TCNPlus #TransformingConstruction

.@jantevy shares insightful resources from the @ebuilder report: Optimization the owner organisation, which can be found at: info.e-builder.net/Capital-Projec…

Through his experience with @ebuilder, @jantevy explains that they’ve found that the best performing organizations engage more in effective stakeholder engagement, nurture their talent, with a consistent, well communicated vision. #TCNPlus #TransformingConstruction

.@enzer_mark provides an overview of the @CambridgeCDBB National Digital Twin Programme. The programme’s mission is to securely guide industry towards building a smarter nation that improves lives and creates a more sustainable planet for the public good. #TCNPlus

The @CambridgeCDBB National Digital Twin Programme envisages the built environment as a system of systems, comprising economic infrastructure, social infrastructure and the natural environment. #TCNPlus #TransformingConstruction

To driver the desired outcomes, @enzer_mark explains that we have to integrate the delivery of new assets with the efficient operation of existing assets using cyber/physical systems. #TCNPlus #TransformingConstruction

When will digital deliver on its promise? @JenniferKWhyte, N+ Co-Investigator, opens our second panel discussion.
