Presentation / Conference
Sunil, K., Pathirage, C., & Underwood, J. (2015, June). The importance of integrating cost management with building information modeling (BIM). Presented at 12th International Postgraduate Research Conference (IPGRC 2015), Salford Quays

The UK construction industry has been branded as an inefficient, fragmented and non-value delivering industry by prominent critics such as Michael Latham and Sir. John Egan; both have insisted on the need to change the way the industry delivers and m... Read More about The importance of integrating cost management with building information modeling (BIM).

Implementing BIM to Streamline a Design, Manufacture and Fitting Workflow. (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Machado, M., Underwood, J., & Fleming, A. (2015, May). Implementing BIM to Streamline a Design, Manufacture and Fitting Workflow. Poster presented at Modular and Offsite Construction [MOC] Summit, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Lean and Building Information Modelling (BIM) have synergies. BIM Implementation demands changes in existing process and procedures for design and construction, representing a technology change, but also a process change. Technology should fit organi...
