Circle Birmingham Hospital.

The design sprints themselves were appropriately segmented, cognisant of the fact that the final sprint should be quicker as more of the outstanding questions would have been generically answered..Many of the deliverables (3.)

could be sequenced traditionally and could be tracked.The trick was that as far as possible they should be de-linked from Integration Strategy E.g.the fundamentals of a process P&ID or a Functional Specification are not linked to the scale of the process or its capacity..

The coordination of key interactions (4.)was vital to have the full integrated design.

Including discussions/reviews with the client, conversations, and formal RFQ with supply chain.

If done with thoughtfulness they could help lubricate and develop the thinking, rather than creating disruptive re-work.The work explored limitations posed by current business models and the changes that would be necessary to move towards automation of the supply chain, and the wider adoption of technology.. Design Optimisation and Prototyping for Affordable Rural Housing.

: Robert Gordon University in Scotland was selected for this project, focused.on transforming the delivery of rural housing via design optimisation and prototyping, in order to facilitate faster, scalable and digitally integrated production.

The project also offered the added benefit of attracting digital natives into housing construction.: A program by the University of Sussex in association with the British Parking Association, TransPark explored how car parking could be revolutionised.
