Watch: Transforming prison design

There is a huge effort ongoing to find replacement sources for aircraft fuel (SAF).

This demonstrates a consistency of thinking which should be quite reassuring.TIP 2021 is just a more detailed roadmap, and this should be helpful to people if they are struggling with the concepts.

Of course, we do run the risk that the term “kit-of-parts” itself is becoming so commonly used now that it may become misused, an issue we’ve seen happen with other MMC nomenclature.We don’t want to create a plethora of kits-of-parts, as value and quality of delivery will be ensured by harmonising those approaches, systems and processes.. We also don’t want people to feel so overwhelmed at the thought of everything changing that they ignore what’s happening and never begin.We need to try and articulate the way of doing this as clearly as possible.

Some of the work the Construction Innovation Hub is doing now is about bringing together all of the different puzzle pieces.Moreover, it’s important to recognise that the Roadmap to 2030 sets everything out in a way which makes it easier for people to plan, looking at what will happen in the first two years of our progression, then two to five years, and five to ten.

This will enable people to plan, take advantage of opportunities, and evolve.

When things are backed up from the client side, the supply chain can have confidence in evolving their approach and the departments will have confidence procuring this way as well.For each, the site-specific design activities can be focused on the placement of the buildings relative to each other, arranging orientation to minimise overlooking and overheating (for both the comfort of prisoners and to reduce energy use), maximise views of landscape, and so on.

It contributes to overall better design and allows designers to focus more of their efforts on solving the specific challenges relating to a particular site and context.Standardised solutions lend themselves to efficiencies in construction and the application of DfMA.

Operational benefits.Standardised solutions facilitate efficient operation and maintenance, as well as aiding staff and prisoner wayfinding and navigation.. A developmental process, an evidence-based approach.
