The traditional siloed project management approach, in which engineers, fabricators and contractors work independently, leads to miscommunications, errors and rework. Imagine a situation where an engineer’s design does not consider the fabricator’s capabilities or if the contractor’s timetable isn’t in line with the material delivery. The results can be devastating, affecting both the timeline of the project and the bottom-line.

However, a collaborative approach fosters a unified vision of the project from the start. Engineers, fabricators and contractors working together in the early design phase can identify and address potential issues. The integrated approach:

Optimized Design
Engineers can tailor designs based on the strengths of fabricators and materials available, ensuring constructability as well as cost-effectiveness.

Streamlined Fabrication
Fabricators can offer valuable insight into the design feasibility of a product and suggest alternate materials or processes to increase efficiency.

Efficient Construction
With a thorough understanding of the design process and the fabrication process, contractors can accurately estimate project timelines as well as resource allocation.

Reduced Risk
Early collaboration reduces the risks of costly changes or delays due to design flaws.

Improved Quality
By ensuring that everyone understands the project requirements, you can ensure that all parties are working to achieve the same high standards of quality. This will result in a better final product.

This collaborative approach has tangible benefits for manufacturing facility owners: faster project completion, reduced costs and improved quality.
