Paper title: Model based cost engineering as a basis for themanagement of cqnstruction process
Authors: Laitinen J
Summary: The traditional design and tender process without the integration of design -manufacturing - Construction hampers innovations in construction. Theimplementation and the use of product and process models will enable thesimulation of buildings and allow their performance to be predicted before they arebuild.The building industry in all consists of several parties representing design,engineering, construction and systems, materials or components industry. Becauseof organisational segregation there is a great need of process integration inconstruction. In this paper is a description of new approakh for the constructionprocess ahd its key player, made1 based cost engineering. Also the pilotenvironment for total product model usage in design and construct project isdescnped.It is proved that there is a waste of money and time caused by non-integration of design and construction. The potential savings between a non-integrated processand a complete optimized process is theoretically calculated on 10 - 20% of theinvestments.
