We are the first main contractor to partner with a platform which improves efficiency in the design management process. The deal with NBS Enterprises will allow our design managers to better collaborate with design partners and our manufacturer supply chain, speeding up the process and reducing defects in construction. Using the NBS Chorus platform designers can take snapshots of specifications at key work stages to create an archive of ‘big data’ from previous projects, helping to maintain robust digital records in the spirit of the golden thread of information (having a golden thread means those responsible for a building have easily accessible, reliable, up to date and accurate information. Without this information, it is very difficult to manage buildings safely). The NBS plan includes a focus on improving the embodied carbon metrics of projects, supported by Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) available from manufacturer product suppliers. The NBS partnership with Bowmer + Kirkland has been led by Framework Delivery Director, James Vaux-Anderson, who said: “Discussing required additional functionality with NBS to make it really work for our design managers has now given us the confidence to recommend that this is our process for future projects. This approach has benefits on an individual project level, but also aligns with our greater vision, to build a rich set of searchable ‘big-data’ across all of our projects.” Dr Stephen Hamil, Innovation Director at NBS commented: “Working alongside Bowmer + Kirkland will allow us to hone our platform to the needs of contractors, improving collaboration on future projects and supply chains but also developing a standardised approach to specification development.”
