Over the next few years, the construction sector will witness a wave of infrastructure projects (£60 billion of spend each year over the next decade) and ground work will be undertaken to set future financial settlements. The pace of this growth, and the size of this opportunity, demands a construction sector that is the best in the world. To maximise the opportunities to drive efficiency savings across the delivery of the transport infrastructure pipeline, this proposal brings together key UK Transport Client groups, Suppliers and academic experts to establish a Transport Infrastructure Efficiency 'Living Lab' to build capability within delivery, innovation and managing construction risk.The UK has had a modest track record of infrastructure delivery with some programmes completed late; over budget; failing to secure the benefits expected; or cancelled after a significant investment. With the increasing challenge and complexity of the government's pipeline of major projects, the capacity to deliver is being stretched. The estimation of cost and schedule can be improved and major projects and programmes are tending to avoid innovation risk. These attitudes to uncertainty and risk are deeply engrained and cultural, with inconsistencies across Departments and ALBs. Together, they create barriers to the greater uptake of Modern Methods of Construction and driving productivity. This proposal offers a strategic, scalable and sector wide approach with Government, Client Groups, Suppliers and Academia working in partnership.To overcome these challenges, the 'Living lab' will work in collaboration with i3P and the CIH to tackle the systemic issues that still obstruct the use, integration and adoption of innovations that could drive productivity and wider social benefits through major construction schemes. It will be a catalyst for cultural change, shifting focus within infrastructure delivery decision-making from the costs of construction to an understanding of its whole life value.Statement from Professor Lord Robert Mair, Cambridge University, Chair of the DFT Science Advisory Council and Member, Transport Research & Innovation Board:"This demonstrator is a transformative collaboration. It uses data, technology and Modern Methods of Construction within live transport infrastructure projects to showcase the value of data visualisation through real-time data control rooms and demonstrates where we can drive even greater productivity and efficiency through innovation transfer. By implementing advanced construction and engineering techniques on live projects, we will deliver significantly better outcomes for society and provide the evidence needed to scale how we drive productivity across the transport infrastructure sector."

在接下来的几年里，建筑行业将见证一波基础设施项目（未来十年每年花费600亿英镑），并将开展基础工作，以确定未来的财务结算。这种增长的速度和机遇的规模，需要一个世界上最好的建筑行业。为了最大限度地提高运输基础设施交付效率，该提案将英国主要运输客户集团、供应商和学术专家聚集在一起，建立一个运输基础设施效率“生活实验室”，以建立交付、创新和管理施工风险的能力。英国在基础设施交付方面的记录一般，有些项目完成得较晚；超出预算;未能获得预期利益的；或者在一笔重大投资后被取消。随着政府重大项目的挑战和复杂性的增加，交付的能力正在被拉长。成本和进度的估算可以得到改进，大型项目和规划正趋向于避免创新风险。这些对不确定性和风险的态度是根深蒂固的文化，在各部门和业务部门之间存在不一致性。总之，它们为更多地采用现代建筑方法和提高生产力创造了障碍。这一建议为政府、客户团体、供应商和学术界的合作提供了一个战略性的、可扩展的、全行业的方法。为了克服这些挑战，“生活实验室”将与i3P和CIH合作，解决阻碍创新使用、整合和采用的系统性问题，这些问题可以通过重大建设计划提高生产力和更广泛的社会效益。它将成为文化变革的催化剂，将基础设施交付决策的重点从建设成本转移到对其整个生命价值的理解。剑桥大学DFT科学咨询委员会主席、交通研究与创新委员会成员Robert maair教授表示：“这是一次变革性的合作。它在现场交通基础设施项目中使用数据、技术和现代施工方法，通过实时数据控制室展示数据可视化的价值，并展示我们可以通过创新转移提高生产力和效率的地方。通过在实际项目中实施先进的建筑和工程技术，我们将为社会带来更好的成果，并为扩大我们如何提高整个交通基础设施部门的生产力提供所需的证据。”
