By championing an industrialised, adaptable, and sustainable model, Edged aims to prove that data centres can be both profitable and environmentally responsible..
The degree of process automation will determine how many human operatives will be needed along with the associated offices, meeting rooms, tea points and toilets.Every aspect of the process can be used to inform facility design.. Clients will often approach us with a pre-determined idea of what their project should look like.
There is a lot of value in this because the client holds all the technical expertise about their process- more than we ever will.A client’s proposed solution will probably already be well aligned with their engineering requirements but it will also be just one of many possible solutions and our job is not to settle for the adequate outcome but to find the best.. DIGITAL SIMULATION DELIVERS THE BEST PERFORMING DESIGN SOLUTION.This is another area where data analytics can help the construction industry.
Many aspects of a process can be considered a variable.For example, a warehouse can be made smaller by changing the delivery frequency or providing more in-process staging.
Throughput can be increased by changing the shift pattern or by reallocating products onto under-utilised equipment.
New-build facility costs can be avoided by upgrading existing plants instead.In February 2016, at the beginning of PETP, we conducted research into the aspects of design that can help influence rehabilitative outcomes.
The huge stakeholder engagement effort that informed the new prison design was the biggest piece of research ever undertaken by the department into the effectiveness of prison design and building use.This is a very good example of how evidence underpins our approach to design.. Stakeholders and sources of evidence included:.
Serving and former prison governors, staff and prisoners.Prisoner support groups, including the Prison Advice and Care Trust.
