The Forge is the UK’s first net zero carbon commercial development and is a landmark moment for the platforms approach to design for manufacture and assembly (P-DfMA). It is also the UK’s first major building completed using the P-DfMA approach, from building design to delivery. In this talk, Bryden Wood will showcase the benefits that can be delivered using P-DfMA techniques, Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) and digital technologies on a large-scale new build commercial office development. The scale and ambition of the Forge is a catalyst for change and a major step forward in proving the new business and financial metrics, whole life performance, and supply chain adoption needed – and deliverable – to accelerate the transformation of the construction sector.
