Digital planning and supply chain management toolbox for productive project delivery (PLASMA)

“由于工艺和技术创新，近几十年来大多数行业的工业生产率都有所提高。然而，建筑业并没有显示出这样的增长（每个工人的增加值是更广泛的制造业的60%）。如果不改善住房和基础设施，就无法满足需求。相反，生产率的提高将大大增加经济（建筑业占英国GDP的约9%）。该部门的规模和性质表明，工艺和技术创新的机会很多。制造和装配设计以及非现场施工等技术可以显著提高施工生产率。然而，由于定制项目、供应链复杂性和需求波动，导致通过供应链进行资本投资的风险规避方法，因此采用速度缓慢。有效的规划和供应链协作是确保持续实现生产力提高的关键。因此，我们将开发、测试和评估一个综合流程规划和供应链管理工具包，以有效交付建筑项目。它将通过以下方式提高施工生产率（潜在成本和时间分别节省25%和28%）：* 更好的项目规划;使项目规划人员能够根据特定环境的限制和供应链“关键点”确定最佳项目交付计划，其中增加的产能/自动化可以提高整体生产率。*改善供应链协作;使供应链企业能够安全地收集、共享和存储信息，例如任务状态/完成情况、组件位置和使用中的数据。“区块链”技术的使用将使智能合同和及时支付给分包商，降低他们的财务风险。来自现场传感器网络和供应链标签/跟踪系统的数据分析将为规划场景优化和行业范围的KPI提供量化指标。这些指标将推动创新，使规划者能够评估新的数字化和自动化解决方案的项目特定优势。这些创新方法的主流实施将有助于节省项目成本和时间55-70%。PLASMA项目将由建筑承包商芬奇领导，斯堪斯卡公司也将参与。这些组织将提供正在进行的建设项目的日期和访问权限，以确保项目解决方案（作为衍生产品提供给行业）满足行业需求。英国中小企业nPlan和Assessment建立在项目规划师的专业知识和芬奇和斯堪斯卡的内部创新之上。它将适用于其他行业（例如设施管理）。我们预计在5年内，该解决方案将为英国10%的行业带来每年3000万英镑的收入。"

"Industrial productivity has improved over recent decades across most sectors due to process and technology innovation. However, construction has not shown such gains (value added per worker is 60% of that in wider manufacture). Without improvements housing and infrastructure demand will not be met. Conversely, productivity improvements will add significantly to the economy (construction represents c.9% of UK GDP).The size and nature of the sector suggest many opportunities for process and technology innovation. Techniques such as Design for Manufacture and Assembly and off-site construction could significantly improve construction productivity. However, uptake has been slow due to bespoke projects, supply chain complexity and fluctuating demand leading to a risk-averse approach to capital investment through supply chains.Effective planning, and supply chain collaboration are key to ensuring that productivity gains are consistently achieved. We will therefore develop, test and assess an integrated process planning and supply chain management toolkit for the efficient delivery of construction projects. It will improve construction productivity (potential cost and time savings of 25% and 28% respectively) via:* Better project planning; enabling project planners to identify optimum project delivery plans based on context-specific restrictions and supply chain 'pinch-points' where increased capacity/automation could improve overall productivity.* Improved supply chain collaboration; enabling supply chain businesses to securely collect, share and store information, such as task status/completion, component location, and in-use data. The use of 'blockchain' technology will enable smart contracts and timely payments to subcontractors, reducing their financial risk.Analysis of data from on-site sensor networks and through supply chain tagging/tracking systems will provide quantified metrics for planning scenario optimisation and industry-wide KPIs. These metrics will drive innovation, enabling planners to assess project-specific benefits of new digital and automation solutions. The mainstream implementation of such innovative approaches the project solution will help to leverage overall 55-70% savings in programme cost and time.The PLASMA project will be led by construction contractor Vinci, with Skanska also participating. These organisations will provide date from, and access to, ongoing construction projects to ensure that the project solution (made available to the industry as a spin-out) meets industry needs. UK SMEs nPlan and Assentian building on expertise of project planners and in-house innovations from Vinci and Skanska. It will be applicable in other sectors (e.g. Facilities Management).We anticipate revenues of \>30£M pa to the 'spin out"" in 5 years, with the solution used by 10% of the UK sector."
