The game-changing strategy for rapid urban development

Design for Manufacturing and Assembly builds momentum for urban development innovators
Face new challenges

Transform project delivery

The building and infrastructure delivery process is ready for a revolution.

Construction demand shows no signs of slowing down. The rapid pace of urban growth is amplifying need for housing and putting greater strain on aging infrastructure. Yet, for the first time, high demand is the construction industry’s most pressing problem.

Developers and city planners working to fill development gaps are hampered by skilled labor shortages at every level of the construction trades. Solving this challenge demands an entirely new pathway from design to delivery.

Bring manufacturing efficiency to urban development.

Template based parametric design and automation tools are critical for gathering early stakeholder feedback and adjusting design plans before a project ever breaks ground. More informed early design removes rework, reduces omissions and limits downstream risk.

  • Streamline construction and simplify the level of skill demanded of available laborers by embedding bills of materials and assembly instructions into the 3D model. Address installation during design to enable a faster, more precise build.

  • Support maintenance through the building’s lifecycle by delivering as-built virtual twin models. This long-term view toward operational costs and planning fosters stronger relationships with owner partners.

  • Use automation, digital fabrication and construction simulation to make building assembly as simple as following directions to install a kit of parts.

An entirely new design-to-delivery process is required to meet modern urban development needs. This approach demands greater upfront collaboration to deliver a quality project that accounts for end-use, future maintenance and long-term development planning.
