11. Offsite & DfMA – Challenges
We live, work and play in infrastructure we have created and our ability to respond to the challenges of the future requires us to look at how we define, deliver and operate our Built Environment.
Digital technology is changing the way we plan, build, maintain and use our social and economic infrastructure.
The time has come for the construction sector to reform by seizing the opportunities offered by the Digital Economy.
Fully computerized construction must become the norm so the benefits of these technologies are realised.

Construction Industrialisation
“The relentless drive to discover how a process is optimally done then doing it exactly the same way every time. Industrialisation drives out waste, automates and standardises where possible”
(Rob Francis – Skanska)
Simply Because
It’s Faster, Safer, Better & More Sustainable
And Probably More Cost Effective

28. Offsite & DfMA – Offsite School
The Offsite Management School
Online learning environment –

29. Welcome to the school Helen Carter Sector Manager – Offsite
19th January 2017

30. 53 contractors and clients . . .

31. Offsite School
A virtual learning environment that aims to help construction suppliers and sub- contractors to develop their offsite knowledge and competence.
Making us all better able to address the offsite challenges our industry face.
E-learning, case studies, training workshops, Personalised Action Plan.
Free to Supplier Members and confidential.

32. Some key principles It’s confidential to each supplier It’s voluntary
Develop at a pace to suit you
It’s not pre-qualification, but . . .
It’s about your business’s institutional knowledge NOT yours
Based on trust
Free at the point of use: lots of free resource

33. The Construction Industrialisation Process
The school focuses on in the five stages of construction industrialisation:
Digital design
Offsite manufacturing
Logistics
Onsite assembly
Best in class maintenance.
To support this process the school concentrates on eight enabling management competencies to help businesses to build skills in these areas.

35. A smart assessment
Each supplier who becomes a member undertakes an assessment tailored to their area of supply

36. Bespoke action plans
After assessment each supplier gets a prioritised action plan based upon their knowledge and level of sustainability risk in their category

37. Continuous Improvement
Once members complete most of their action plan, they can re- assess and see how they have improved
They will then be given the next 10 points to work on

38. 500 resources

39. Supplier dashboards
Each supplier who becomes a member gets their own dashboard to track progress and action plans

44. Offsite & DfMA – Common Challenges
“What makes a man more conservative - to know nothing but the present, or nothing but the past?”
(John Maynard Keynes – The End of Laissez-Faire 1926)
“The future is already here, it just not very evenly distributed.”
(William Gibson – Canadian-American Author 1993)
“The difficulty lies not so much in developing new ideas as in escaping from old ones.”
(JMK – The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money 1935)
“Innovators or early adopters at the vanguard of change leave the laggards in isolation. The result is islands of excellence in an ocean of mediocrity.”
(Unknown Sources)
Diffusion of innovation Theory – five categories (sometimes seven)
Innovators – 2.5%,
Early Adopters – 13.5%
Early Majority – 34%
Late Majority – 34%
Laggards – 16%
Another quote
We are an industry that likes to be first to be second – which is a reflection of what is on the screen.
One final thought about Future Disrupters – Finishing with a question.
It’s estimated that by 2020 more than 50 billion smart devices & objects will be linked.
What sort of disruptive Impact will the Internet of Things have on our buildings, infrastructure and way of life?
