It also means it is easier to identify what products and material specifications were used on previous projects should any legislation changes occur.<\/p>\n<p>By verifying the materials and products to be used on a construction scheme and by simplifying the onsite assembly process, volumetric modular construction offers developers an opportunity to avoid many traceability issues. Modular construction helps ensure client satisfaction and product assurances through the certainty and quality embedded into the build process.<\/p>\n<p>Modular builds are less susceptible to poorly specified manufacturers\u2019 products as time can be taken up front to validate the correct specification of materials. This allows clients to have confidence in the quality and performance that they can expect from their new building. By completing large elements of construction away from the build location, they can also reduce the length of construction time spent onsite, as well as reduce the risk of unforeseen construction issues.<\/p>\n<p>It is standard practice for BIM to be embedded into the design and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/mmc-news\/aimch-progress-report-encouraging-results-for-mmc\/91566\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">advanced manufacturing processes<\/a> involved in modular construction. As an established method of sharing building lifecycle data across design, construction and operation \u2013 BIM is also regarded as integral to achieving a golden thread.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2016, the BIM mandate has required UK public sector construction projects to use BIM technology. This has helped speed up the pace of adoption during the design and construction phases. It has been predicted that government intervention around the golden thread will accelerate things further.<\/p>\n<p>As I have mentioned before, modular construction is not a new industry but through learning from advanced manufacturing and best practice in other sectors, it represents a genuine opportunity to disrupt an often-disjointed industry that suffers from a lack of data traceability and accountability.<\/p>\n<p>With its powerful combination of controlled deliverables and customisable outputs, modular construction provides the repeatable quality and safety needed to meet client demands. It is going to be difficult to achieve the levels of assurance and traceability the UK construction industry will need to actively deliver a golden thread of information from concept to completion \u2013 without an even wider adoption of modular technology.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/testimonials\/jackie-maginnis-mpba\/90947\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Jackie Maginnis<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>+44 (0)870 241 7687<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:mpba@mpba.biz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mpba@mpba.biz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mpba.biz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.mpba.biz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MPBAUK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@MPBAUK<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/the-modular-&amp;-portable-building-association\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Modular &amp; Portable Building Association<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Please note: this is a commercial profile.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In her report Building a Safer Future, Dame Judith Hackitt highlights the need for a system-based approach with a golden thread of information running through the lifecycle of each project.
