What is Lean Design & Construction?

iBCS Inc.

Lean Design & Construction is a production management - based approach to project delivery - a new way to design and build capital facilities. Lean production management has caused a revolution in manufacturing design, supply and assembly. Applied to project design and delivery, Lean changes the way work is done throughout the delivery process. Lean Construction extends from the objectives of a lean production system - maximize value and minimize waste - to specific techniques, and applies them in a new project delivery process.

Why Lean in Construction?

iBCS Inc.

Construction must improve its Processes, Methods & Tools by taking a Lean approach to improve collaboration and execution during the design, build and operate phases of the Lifecycle.

"The ability to exchange data among project team members is critical to collaboration, as is the ability to analyze data to improve a firm's performance."

"Better tools are needed that allow more intensive data sharing within and beyond individual firms, especially with owners and fabricators."

• Construction is for CLM what Manufacturing is for PLM.

• CLM is an abstraction layer of PLM.

Semantically, Construction and Product are different but the Processes, Methods & Tools for managing it are similar.

Leveraging the 3D paradigm

iBCS Inc.

3D based construction definition information is the lifeblood of the Construction Lifecycle Management business strategy.

Construction, Processes & Resources are a whole and are the building blocks of the CLM vision.

While CLM impacts all aspects of the enterprise, Virtual Engineering & Construction provide benefits in the design, engineering and construction realms.

Digital mock-up and Building Information Model are the building blocks of Construction Lifecycle Management.

Confidential

What is digital mock-up?The virtual design and simulation in 3D of a product and all components of its logical structure. Digital mock-up eliminates the need for expensive real mock-up. Manufacturers can develop virtually a digital mock-up of a product in full detail, simulating all its functions and anticipating the interaction among its various components. Since the digital mock-up contains all the data associated with the product, it is richer than the physical mock-up because al l simulation and calculations can be performed on it.

Digital mock-up is currently adopted in most of the industries from automotive and aerospace to as diverse industries such as fashion and apparel.

What is Building Information Model?Building Information Model is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. A BIM model is a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions during its lifecycle; defined as existing from earliest conception to demolition.

BIM is currently in the process of being adopted by the AEC/EPC ecosystem.

Parametricism as Style - Parametricist manifesto

iBCS Inc.

10

We pursue the parametric design paradigm all the way, penetrating into all corners of the discipline. Systematic, adaptive variation, continuous differentiation (rather than mere variety), and dynamic, parametric figuration concerns all design tasks from urbanism to the level of tectonic detail, interior furnishings and the world of products. Source: Patrik Schumacher, London 2008

Parametric computing is the basis of the digital mock-up technological revolution without which we could not envision the emergence of the new architectural Parametricism style.

Objectives – CPI InnovationImprove the quality and topicality of technical information

• for example, providing consistent process documentation

Monitor the progress of a Construction at any stage in its Lifecycle

• for example, tracking actual costs, timing and milestones of Construction Lifecycle and comparing these to forecasted schedules and budgets

Analyze issues that might arise at any phase of a Construction Lifecycle

• for example, if costs exceed budget, CPI provides access to information about Construction Lifecycle critical items (data, projects and resources) that help users quickly understand the root causes

Business strategy – Comprehensive ApproachConstruction Lifecycle Management (CLM) is a very broad business strategy that bridges the gap between Engineering, Construction, Procurement and back-office enterprise systems.

The CLM Strategy aims to cover missing support areas and to overcome the lack of integration and collaboration between different business tasks by facilitating the sharing of Construction information across all company functions, customers and suppliers.

CLM is about Lean Construction, inspired by PLM’s lean vision in discrete manufacturing.

Business strategy – CPI ApproachConstruction Process Integration (CPI) is the goal of the broad CLM business strategy. It fills the applicative gap (business process & data flow) between Engineering and back-office Business systems such as Financials and Human Resources.

Design Tendering ExecutionConstruction Lifecycle timeline

Typically, an AEC/EPC enterprise must align its ERP strategy with the CPI framework

to achieve seamless integration of their Construction Lifecycle applicative ecosystem.

Confidential

AEC/EPC is a unique ecosystemAEC/EPC ecosystem is more than simply, an industry.

• Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) represents a critical Construction domain which main's mission is to design Capital Assets.

• Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) represents also a critical Construction domain which main's mission is to build Capital Assets.

It is critical to add two more key players to the ecosystem:

• Owners Contract AEC stakeholders to design Capital Assets and EPC stakeholders to build it.

• Operators are Contracted by Owners to operate Capital Assets on their behalf.

Why a Globally Integrated Enterprise?

iBCS Inc.

The globally integrated enterprise, fashions its strategy, management and operations to integrate production – and deliver value to clients – worldwide. That has been made possible by shared technologies and shared business standards, built on top of a global information technology and communications infrastructure.

Source: Samuel J. Palmisano – former CEO, IBM Corp.

A globally integrated enterprise in the AEC/EPC ecosystem is capable to "design anywhere, build anywhere, operate anywhere".

What are Capital Assets?

iBCS Inc.

Capital Assets are facilities (properties) of any kind (purpose)

• Construction's focus is to design, build, operate Capital Assets

• The AEC/EPC ecosystem serves a large range of industry verticals:

Oil & Gas

Power Generation (Fossil, Renewables and Nuclear), Utilities

Process, Plant, Marine

Infrastructure, Civil

Government, Offices and Residential Buildings

What is a modern Capital Asset?

iBCS Inc.

Capital Assets must incorporate green technologies

• Green technology means permanent energy footprint monitoring:

Displays information on current energy usage, CO2 usage, or water consumption against a target value

Demonstrates environmental commitment

Encourages energy saving behavior

Monitor display positioned for easy visual access and configuration

22

Confidential

What is a modern Capital Asset?

iBCS Inc.

Capital Assets must incorporate smart technologies

• Smart technology means:

Enabling the facility to react on price signals from the smart grid

Facility shifts or reduces its energy consumption in line with off peak times

Generates electricity for its own usage and acts as a provider to the grid

Permanently adapts its power demand to power generation

Construction Data ManagementThe Construction Process Integration framework must provide "out of the box" a flexible data model tailored for the needs of the Architecture, Engineering & Construction industry and its best practices.

Construction BOM (Bill of Material) • The Construction BOM is an “as built” view of the Engineering BOM. • It must manage a relational list of “Items” for:

• all the categories of “units” that are used in the assembly of the final Construction project • all the capital equipment and the tools used in the build phase and its use schedule • it must manage the Bill of Quantities resulting from the released Engineering BOM • it must manage the Construction schedule • it must manage all the construction specifications documentation (regardless of the format) • It must manage the relationships between the Item categories

It must handle the Lifecycle of all the managed Item categories • each Item must have a customizable Lifecycle

Business Processes (use cases) – Functional ThreadsThe Construction Process Integration framework manages all the interactions between the various enterprise stakeholders leveraging a set of ”out of the box” Business Processes. The framework allows the stakeholders to collaborate seamlessly to execute Model Driven Construction. The following Business Processes are supported:

• Construction Change Management • Collaborative Project Management • Bill of Quantities Management • Construction Material Management • Estimating • Tendering • Subcontracting • Purchasing • Scheduling • Controlling (Document Control, Cost Control, Project Control)

Business Processes (use cases) – Functional Threads

The Construction Process Integration framework must provide at least a set of standard business processes based on industry best practices.

Construction BOM (Bill of Material) • for example, tracking actual costs, timing and milestones of Construction

Lifecycle and comparing these to forecasted schedules and budgets

Analyze issues during any phase of the Construction Lifecycle • for example, if costs exceed budget, CPI provides access to information about

Construction Lifecycle critical items (data, projects and resources) that help Stakeholders quickly understand the root causes

ConclusionConstruction Lifecycle Management business strategy provides the technological framework to realize Construction Process Integration by:

• accelerating the Construction maturity (faster and more reliable processes)

• eliminating non value-add work (optimize processes, communication across construction and data flow process support)

• improving system maintainability and availability (up to date systems)

• optimizing the information availability when needed

Lean Construction challenges the belief that there must always be trade-offs between time, cost and quality.
