Series 1 - Workflow Integration
Series 2 - Project Applications
10:00 am Workshop A
Effectively Managing Change to Improve the Integration of Workflows & Standardization of Processes
Synopsis
• Mapping the process change of introducing a new tool to understand the extent of disruption it will have company-wide
• Engaging end-users in this process to ensure new processes are fully documented and quality of data is maintained
• Developing a robust knowledge management and employee engagement program to support change management at all levels
10:00 am Workshop B
Leveraging Prefabrication Plans Inside the Model to Ensure Alignment Between the Product & Project Lifecycles
Synopsis
• Considering the way your model is set up to enable prefabrication, including elements such as naming conventions and ways of splitting models up or the use of repeatable components
• Optimizing the transfer of the design and engineering model into the fabrication system in order to accelerate the product schedule and create cost efficiency
• Ensuring input from the field early on in model development in order to review the model for construction and its alignment with the production strategy
12:00 pm Lunch Break
1:00 pm Workshop C
Optimizing Your Data Management Strategy to Better Gather, Share & Report Data Internally
Synopsis
• Differentiating between the author and the consumer of data in order to redefine and optimize workflows
• Revealing the why behind collecting data and the clear goals it helps fulfill to reduce the creation of digital waste and better identify what processes need to be digitized
• Ensuring that your data is machine readable as well as humanly comprehensive and consumable in any tool
1:00 pm Workshop D
Evaluating the ROI of Field Tools vs. Project Outcomes
Synopsis
• Ensuring that newly introduced technology tools are being used as intended at the jobsite
• Assessing the intended vs. actual use and performance of tools both throughout and at the end of each project
• How do you adjust field training based on the feedback collected during the project in order to enhance the use of a specific tool?
3:00 pm Afternoon Refreshments
3:30 pm Workshop E
Addressing Cross-Platform Interoperability Challenges to Ease Collaboration & Eliminate Duplication of Work
Synopsis
• Defining individual project member requirements, capabilities, and additional investment required early on to enhance platform interoperability
• Discussing the extent to which data can be democratized on a project team level and what that data is
• Exploring the main connections that can be made between software solutions used by different project partners in order to ensure a more seamless flow of information
3:30 pm Workshop F
Harnessing Technology to Enhance Quality in the Field & Ultimately Improve Project Outcomes
Synopsis
• Exploring how field technologies can identify potential risks and discrepancies at the jobsite before you encounter them
• Optimizing tracking for quality incidents and documenting any defects or changes in the field in order to thoroughly inform both the GC and the next subcontractor
• Discussing how the client can monitor the use of tools for proactive QA/QC throughout the project
