Design to Value: facilitating a critical, creative, people focused approach with process engineering and digital construction technology

Satwinder’s role at Sheffield University emphasises 'earning while learning,' bridging academia and practice.

Maybe these could be summed up with the joint sentiment that an industry focused on health should not conspire to harm the long-term well-being of society..So how do we accelerate?.

The drivers for change in this arena need themselves to change, in reality and in dialogue.. With tough and uncertain trading conditions, drivers which do not put economics at the centre of things, risk becoming marginalised.The aims of efficiency, intensification, recycling and waste reduction, if applied correctly, are directly shared with improving today’s economics.In an arena where regulation and taxation will be aligned to carbon reduction, there is also a strategic necessity for long-term profitability.

Framing the drivers in this way would chime much more favourably with shareholders, boardrooms, and in the political arena.. Economics are certainly the key driver in the generics manufacturers who operate in price-sensitive markets.Accounting for as high as 90% of prescription drugs, their strategies and business decisions have huge influence on the impact of the sector.

They often do not carry the overhead of strategic teams, and there is an opportunity to share, promote and assist their move towards more efficient use of solvents through the sharing of insights and examples.

The influence of the R&D led industry is hugely significant, providing the worked through case-studies and directly influencing their supply chain, including contract manufacturers.. Over the course of the discussion, there was a radical switch in the reflections on regulations and regulators.The best results are achieved when the refurbishment is planned carefully from a holistic point of view, addressing all the different factors of the retrofit together..

Sustainable design: Net Zero Carbon refurbishment.(LETI) and Bryden Wood.

Bryden Wood’s approach to adaptive reuse uses a clear operational and embodied carbon hierarchy, as shown in the diagrams below.Our sustainable design approach prioritises the reduction of energy demand via a ‘fabric first’ approach, combined with passive and active design measures (‘be lean’).
