“The majority of the consultants that are working with our customers and myself on the industrialised construction offering are manufacturing consultants,” she says.
I will therefore go into 2025 with optimism and a determination to carry on trying to build connections and collaborations.Building on some well-laid foundations of thinking and action, I will try to come together with others to accelerate positive change.
I will count my worries and fears as friends helping guide me on a safe path.You are welcome to come along..Professor John Dyson spent more than 25 years at GlaxoSmithKline, eventually ending his career as VP, Head of Capital Strategy and Design, where he focussed on developing a long-term strategic approach to asset management..
While there, he engaged Bryden Wood and together they developed the Front End Factory, a collaborative endeavour to explore how to turn purpose and strategy into the right projects – which paved the way for Design to Value.He is committed to the betterment of lives through individual and collective endeavours.. As well as his business and pharmaceutical experience, Dyson is Professor of Human Enterprise at the University of Birmingham, focussing on project management, business strategy and collaboration.. Additionally, he is a qualified counsellor with a private practice and looks to bring the understanding of human behaviour into business and projects..

One rapidly growing sector with a pivotal role in the global energy transition is the construction of lithium-ion battery manufacturing plants for electric vehicles (EVs)..In its initial configuration a building might function as an office block, but components could be taken out and the building changed into a residential building or school.
At the end of its life, the various standardised components would be recycled, reused or redeployed, creating a circular economy.As the Internet of Things evolves and built assets become smarter, gathering increasing amounts of data, they could become self-optimising, intelligent buildings – recognising the need for a change in air or lighting levels.
Ultimately, this type of data would then feed back into the design process itself, creating an open-ended process of continual improvement, and contributing to the next generation of components.. Our sustainable future.Of course, the most pressing, current question is: how do we make a planet which sustainably supports 11.5 billion people?
