These are the key aims of a Design to Value approach.. [1].

It opens up our imaginations.. Digital Construction App Broadens User Understanding and Drives Value.Rather than creating PDF documentation about MMC processes and their benefits for housing design, we wanted PRiSM to aid understanding of core MMC techniques more directly.

The app exposes spatial planning rules and MMC design rules to the users, which leads to greater understanding and ultimately accelerates PMH design.By eliminating the need for the type of specialist knowledge which typically surrounds MMC, the app fosters accessibility for a broad range of users with an interest in residential architecture.It brings transparency to manufacturing-based construction methodologies and makes the entire process of housing design more efficient and predictable.

PRiSM makes it easier to assess the feasibility of projects.. As an educational tool, PRiSM helps designers to understand PMH better.In an effort to reach the widest possible audience and create the biggest benefits for the industry, we’ve made the app open-source and free to use.

PRiSM makes it possible for developers, local authorities, housing associations, architects and manufacturers to design housing solutions very quickly.

An apartment building can be designed in as little as thirty minutes.As a result, value is diluted at every stage.. Design to Value – a unifying approach.

The most efficient route to the most efficient solution is first to make sure you analyse and understand a project from every angle.Maximising the value of an asset is finding the right balance of a wide range of criteria.. Design to Value is well understood and applied in the manufacturing industries.

It leads to objective analysis of every aspect of a process, every element of resource requirement, energy consumption, knowledge, and cost.It leads to testing of the value parameters each of these elements is being measured against.
