That level of data will provide huge knowledge and insight, which in turn will help us to make better decisions supporting our broader set of Design for Value outcomes.
while also delivering certainty of cost and programme.. We brought all of this learning to Birmingham.As at Reading, our primary focus was on the quality of the user experience for patients and staff, as well as the efficiency and usability of the building..
In 2012 we won the Best Patient Experience Award for Circle Reading at the Building Better Healthcare awards.. Hospital Design for flexibility and change.We also worked hard to make sure that the design of the hospital was flexible and adaptable.One recurring issue with hospitals is that the technology they house develops at pace and, as we have seen this year, the demands hospitals face can change very quickly.
Both of these mean that traditional approaches to hospital design and construction come with obsolescence as standard.. Our intelligent design, on the other hand, had future-proofing and flexibility built in.We had an early opportunity to prove the value of this, when Circle Health decided to expand vertically and double the size of the hospital during the construction phase.
We achieved this with very little disruption.. Design to Value means rigorously assessing every part of a project using a wide variety of value criteria, which come from the client and from the sector more broadly.
Our Platforms approach to Design for Manufacture and Assembly (P-DfMA) bakes value into the process by bringing the benefits of manufacturing to the design and construction process.The experience is not supposed to be deterministic but reflexive and co-created between people and technology.
Each of these threads connects and is informed by other areas of work at Bryden Wood.Creative Technologies could only thrive in a company with a truly integrated approach..
Does Creative Technologies mean Construction Technology?.Construction Technology is a big category.
