Instead, it’s a federated system allowing different parties to find and use data from other sources, and to check whether they’re allowed to do so..
How do we use data in a way that supports not just better construction projects, but also better operational assets?How do we drive that path to net-zero carbon emissions with greater impact on social value?
These things are crucial to strategic policy, both in terms of the new assets that we build, and how we operate the existing ones.As an industry, we have a moral obligation to do better.The current opportunity for transformation and progress in construction has arrived at a critical time..

I suppose it seems counter-intuitive for a firm focused on design and engineering for the built environment to put such stock in analytics.This however is a key aspect of Bryden Wood’s Design to Value approach and for me has always seemed like a natural extension of our long-term quest to deliver better design through a deeper understanding of how buildings really work.. Others at Bryden Wood have already.
