One aim of the Construction Playbook's policies is to “drive innovation through standardisation and aggregation of demand, increased client capability and setting clear requirements of suppliers." With a programmatic pipeline we can invest in innovation alongside our continuous improvement.
By understanding how clients expect their services to evolve over a longer timescale, we can invest in research and development ahead of demand. Working with customers, alliance partners, the supply chain and academia, we can test new ideas, products and technologies in a low-risk, low-cost environment. This helps ensure solutions are ready when future projects need them.
For the Defence Infrastructure Organisation's Single Living Accommodation Programmatic Alliance, we have worked on new façade panels, alliance-wide bathroom pods and superstructure solutions to meet counter-terrorism and blast requirements while improving value for money.
