How the Constructible Process Will Transform 2020

Two ways to improve connection among teams is to:
Leverage tribal knowledge from your most skilled workers
Utilize historical data from past projects, and democratize it across teams.
This ensures the wealth of knowledge is easily accessible by those who need it. This can
be done through a shared database that all relevant team members have access to.
Of course, sharing knowledge doesn't happen overnight. Eliminating communication
barriers can be done in a number of different ways. Enhanced coordination workflows
allow multiple stakeholders to collaborate within and review models to avoid clashes.
Engineers can update models fast as team members are reviewing, and each project
stakeholder is able to see the updated models. They are even notified of the changes in
real time.
Taken a step further, improved inter-operational connections are automating the
building process. Constructible models now directly drive the digital fabrication
process. With sophisticated machine control and robotics in the field, models
developed by engineers are now directing the earthwork and layout in the field. Civil
contractors, MEP trades, and layout teams no longer need to recreate any building data
because instructions for the work to be performed are driven directly by approved and
shared models.
