With social distancing, a 20-person lift is now only able to carry one person, so staircases are going to become much busier.
Efficiency and cost-effectiveness:.Discover how reference design circumvents the need to start from scratch for each project, thereby saving time and reducing costs.
It avoids unnecessary variation that adds expense without value, focusing instead on efficiency and operational effectiveness.. Client-specific flexibility:.Gain insights into how reference design varies based on client or sector needs, with examples from the Ministry of Justice and the healthcare sector, demonstrating the adaptability and customisation of the approach..Enhanced design process:.
Understand how reference design amplifies benefits, allowing for extensive stakeholder engagement and the integration of best practices into a repeatable design, leading to improvements in asset operation and maintenance..Continual improvement cycle:.
Learn about the cyclical nature of improvement in reference design, where lessons learned from ongoing operations are integrated into future iterations, fostering continual enhancement rather than constant reinvention.. Strategic site selection and design optimisation:.
Explore how reference design aids in rapid site viability testing and decision-making, optimising design while ensuring compliance with technical standards..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.Bryden Wood had been working with MoJ since 2011, when we helped developed their BIM Implementation Plan.
We went on to join the MoJ’s multi-disciplinary designer framework in 2014 and, before PETP, developed a ‘proof of concept’ for the application of DfMA to the custodial estate..In February 2016, at the beginning of PETP, we conducted research into the aspects of design that can help influence rehabilitative outcomes.
