Description

Industrialized Construction Certificate Program focuses on offsite fabrication, supply chain optimization & design for offsite fabrication. To reduce cost and more effectively control schedules without compromising quality and safety, owners and contractors are looking to modernize construction. This includes productization, moving work offsite and the adoption of manufacturing-type production methods. Known as “Industrialized Construction,” this strategy can deliver significant benefit, but is not without challenges that have yet to be addressed by accepted project management practices. To enable successful deployment of Industrialized Construction, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, in partnership with the Project Production Institute, is offering education and certification in modern production concepts and tools including concurrent digital engineering (CDE) and design for manufacture and assembly (DfMA). This program will enable participants to understand the benefits of adopting a modern construction framework and enable companies to effectively deal with the new challenges of moving work offsite using production management. Specific focuses include offsite fabrication, supply chain optimization and design for offsite fabrication. WHO SHOULD ATTEND: This program will benefit specialty contractors, general contractors, owners, construction managers, architects, engineers and suppliers who are involved in or responsible for work offsite, contemplating moving work offsite, and/or looking to adopt production management methods to modernize construction.
