Driving Productivity Through Industrialisation

The narrative around MMC is changing. There are increasing calls for government to embrace the principles of ‘industrialisation’ as a means to unlocking productivity in the construction sector. The proposed shift in narrative recognises that our long-held interest in the adoption of manufacturing processes and technologies as a means to higher productivity requires a fundamental change in our traditional project delivery model.

Where the traditional construction delivery model promotes constant reinvention in what we deliver and how we deliver it, Industrialised Construction approaches are focused on driving standardisation, repeatability and continuous improvement in systems, processes and relationships across suitable programmes and portfolios of work. Through these approaches, we can create the conditions for manufacturing supply chains to thrive, and embrace more productive approaches to design, logistics, assembly and beyond.

On Thursday 25th April, the CE Offsite Group will join Ron Lang, Regional Director at AtkinsRealis, in a debate on why we should shift our focus towards industrialisation if we are to create a modern industry that embraces technological development, that attracts and retains the best talent and that efficiently delivers high quality outputs that meet the needs of society.
