While purified water can be generated locally, drainage for lab sinks and equipment can be challenging due to a lack of risers in a standard office and difficulties achieving falls, so an overhead pumped system may be necessary.
These ideas and discussions are vital to the safe development of AI in pursuit of the betterment of all people and the planet but they hold absolutely true for human organisations..Design to Value.
book, the idea of the reductionist “brief” is challenged.The book poses questions to the designer: Do we really spend the time to look carefully at the purpose?Are we working to find and deliver the client’s purpose and do we accept that narrowing down on that outcome can only come from constant iterations and evolution of understanding?
The idea that the purpose and objective can be captured in a document and then a design team (human-intelligent-machine) can simply deliver it, is as frightening as the robot childminder.. For Design to Value the rules should be:.Altruism – the aim should be to maximise the value to the client, understanding the underlying purpose.
Uncertainty – the problem statement and value drivers should remain uncertain.
Iteration – there needs to be a dynamic process: try, analyse, evaluate.This ‘manufacturing as a service’ could have significant benefits for a Platform approach to construction.
What can we learn?.Xometry uses a widely distributed network of suppliers who can respond to requests which suit their capabilities and capacity.
This would be a positive outcome for construction, ensuring those suppliers who were local to a planned project could respond, reducing travel distance and therefore carbon, risk of delivery delays etc..This distribution helps manufacturers to maximise their utilisation; downtime on equipment and operatives contributes to overhead, which is amortised across orders, raising prices and lowering productivity.
