The idea behind this concept is not to develop a single digital planning product.
http://bit.ly/BWNewsUpdatesPeople often ask me why the majority of the staff in Bryden Wood’s Singapore office are data analysts.I suppose it seems counter-intuitive for a firm focused on design and engineering for the built environment to put such stock in analytics.
This however is a key aspect of Bryden Wood’s Design to Value approach and for me has always seemed like a natural extension of our long-term quest to deliver better design through a deeper understanding of how buildings really work.. Others at Bryden Wood have already.written extensively.about the importance of data and analytics in the design and construction industry.
A major aim of design, at least in my view, is to deliver an outcome that fulfils the client’s requirements in the best possible way.It follows that if we can accumulate data about what our clients are seeking to achieve and analyse the data to generate insights to inform our design process, the better the result will be.. UNDERSTANDING COMPLEX PHARMACEUTICAL AND INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES.
At Bryden Wood we have many industrial clients who are concerned with transforming raw materials into new products through complex processes.
Our data analysts engage directly with clients to collect information about their processes and produce complex time-based models to simulate them and quantify the required inputs and resulting outputs..We’re talking to steel manufacturers about the types of steel which will be made by electric arc furnaces powered by hydrogen fuel cells.
We’re evaluating whether it’s viable to grow enough forests to build buildings using timber.All of these issues must be addressed now.. Modern construction for the next generation.
Finally, there is the question of the workforce itself.At present, there simply aren’t enough young people coming into the construction industry.
