Instead, he thinks it’s because the industry is oversubscribed to the idea of finding a silver bullet to solve all the ills of a construction site.

All of them are looking at how to digitise planning policy, and make it more machine readable.Local plans take years for councils to produce, and are based on evidence which is out of date almost as soon as it’s put into use, and definitely by the time the plan is published years later.

Digitising the planning system will help us to start producing policies based on real time evidence.Policies could change over a very short time.Changes to market conditions, developer contributions, or the cost of land could impact the number, or location, of homes originally desired.

Digitising planning would keep things much more reliable and up to date..There would also be an opportunity to test more ideas before deciding which policy is the right one, and it’s hoped that by digitising the planning system we’ll also be able to do scenario testing.

A brownfield site map could give a developer a much better sense of what they’re likely to get approved, enabling them to tweak their plans before they approach.

This would thin out a lot of the existing legwork and administrative work, speeding everything up.. Establishing rules to support digitisation.This allows for visualisation of different issues within a project..

It's important that when we define chips, we don't leave gaps.We aim to capture everything: the building, the equipment, operations, software, hazards, quality requirements, whatever is important in that system.

At the point of inquiry, we are trying to get that information loaded into that Chip..When we are creating plans, we like to work in three dimensions from the very early part of the project.
