Value Realization

Building information modelling (BIM) tools and workflows, new procurements methods, and emerging management practices are being adopted on projects to overcome collaboration barriers and improve project performance within the architecture, engineering, construction, and operation (AECO) sector. Academic literature and industry reports recommend the use of collaborative procurement methods such as design and build (DB) procurement and integrated project delivery (IPD) when adopting BIM workflows. However, to date there are little operationalization and empirical evidence of the value realization potential when using BIM in conjunction to these procurement methods. This chapter draws upon five case studies of BIM-based DB projects to analyze and quantify the potential of value realization using clash detection as a use value. The results reveal potential hurdles inhibiting BIM from reaching its full potential. Accordingly, recommended changes to the current processes are suggested to facilitate BIM in enhancing value on DB projects.

Heating Loads

Building information modelling (BIM) is not only an authoring tool for architects and engineers, but also for all stakeholders in the building programme procurement process. Analysis tools like code checking of building regulations and environmental simulations that can report on heating loads, daylighting and carbon use will push the adoption of intelligent modelling faster and further than previously thought. The benefits for clients should not be underestimated either and some are already reaping them where project certainty is to the fore. However, the professional language that architects and engineers espouse is a latent force that can run counter to fostering collaboration. An emerging professional, the Architectural Technologist, can bridge that divide and adopt the adjunct role of manager in the integrated project delivery.

Huge financial resources are spent in the construction industry all over the world, which are frequently wasted largely due to a lack of proper planning. In recent decades, in an attempt to overcome challenges, various contractual and administrative systems have been used by construction owners/clients. One such system has been Integrated Project Delivery (IPD). Its implementation has, however, experienced drawbacks. Identifying such drawbacks is an initial step in attempting to resolve them, and this paper aims to identify and prioritize the IPD implementation drawbacks in the context of the Iranian construction industry. A comprehensive list of IPD implementation drawbacks is prepared using a questionnaire survey. An in-depth literature review of the IPD concept has been combined with a review of various case studies applying the IPD system. The results were analyzed using the Robust Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) method. 22 drawbacks in the Construction Industry were categorized under four themes; contractual, environmental, managerial, and technical. Results show that contractual drawbacks are the most significant. The implication of this research is that identifying and classifying IPD implementation drawbacks provides a useful reference to managers and owners of the construction industry, for identifying and codifying solutions to overcome them.

The productivity of the construction sector in Spain is very low, as compared to other economic sectors, as with other countries in our environment. It takes us to a deep reflection on whether we are doing things right and what improvements can we introduce to increase production. These improvements must necessarily be technological and methodological, since there is a good training of the equipment both at the managerial level, as well as at the technical and in most of the labour levels, it is to exploit the full potential of new IT tools, especially Building Information Modelling (BIM) and the new methodologies that, from the industry, look for greater efficiency of the process and the elimination of all type of losses, like Lean Construction. A change of mentality, necessary to rethink the way of work in which we have been working for so many centuries, as the only possible paradigm, to replace confrontation as a way of producing construction through collaboration between all the agents involved in the work. We will speak in this article about Integrated Project Delivery (IPD), as one of the Lean methodologies that enable a profound improvement, we will see its definition, its essential components, and how it application can positively influence the construction process in Spain as it has already demonstrated in others.ResumenLa productividad del sector de la construcción en España es muy baja, tanto comparativamente con otros sectores económicos, como con la de otros países de nuestro entorno. Se hace necesaria una profunda reflexión sobre si estamos haciendo bien las cosas y qué mejoras podemos introducir para incrementar la producción. Estas mejoras han de ser necesariamente tecnológicas y metodológicas, ya que existe una buena capacitación de los equipos tanto a nivel directivo, como en la escala técnica y en muchos casos en la laboral, es decir, se trata de aprovechar todo el potencial de las nuevas herramientas informáticas, especialmente Building Information Modeling (BIM) y de las nuevas metodologías que, provenientes de la industria, buscan una mayor eficacia del proceso y la eliminación de todo tipo de pérdidas, como Lean Construction. Un cambio de mentalidad necesario, que pasa por replantearnos la forma de trabajo en la que llevamos tantos siglos empeñados, como único paradigma posible, sustituir el enfrentamiento, como forma de producir la construcción, por la colaboración entre todos los agentes intervinientes en la obra. Hablaremos en este artículo de los Métodos Colaborativos en construcción, que en inglés se han denominado Integrated Project Delivery (IPD), como una de las metodologías Lean que posibilitan una profunda mejora, veremos cuál es su definición, componentes esenciales, y cómo su aplicación puede incidir positivamente en el proceso constructivo de nuestro país al igual que ya lo ha demostrado en otros.

Ao longo dos anos, pesquisas têm enfatizado a necessidade de adoção de alternativas da gestão de empreendimentos, como forma de superar os problemas vinculados aos métodos de contratação tradicionais. Métodos de contratação, como o Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) vêm ganhando interesse no setor da construção civil. Apesar do potencial do IPD, a introdução deste método na indústria da construção civil é desafiadora e se encontra em estágios iniciais. Os limites de conhecimento do IPD, até o momento, têm dificultado a sua aplicação em ambientes de produção de empreendimentos com pouca experiência sobre esta prática. Assim, considerando a necessidade de expandir o conhecimento sobre o tema, esta pesquisa objetiva analisar e sintetizar a informação relacionada ao IPD, identificar as associações entre os seus elementos e desenvolver proposições que orientam a sua aplicação. Como método de pesquisa, considerou-se a abordagem qualitativa exploratória, com pesquisa de associação, sem interferência entre as variáveis. Foi também proposto o desenvolvimento de um mapa conceitual para compreensão da teoria. Os resultados da pesquisa apresentam a disposição dos elementos do IPD no processo de produção do empreendimento, quer seja no contexto contratual, operacional, organizacional e gerencial. As proposições reúnem informações sobre os benefícios possíveis de serem alcançados com a efetivação dos elementos do IPD.
