Module 9 - Points to Ponder

How was design coordination done before digital models?

◦  What did teams do instead, and what did it cost in rework?

◦  Is there anything the older methods caught that a clash report does not?

Not every clash is a problem.

◦  On what basis did you classify?

◦  What is the risk of being too aggressive in either direction?

◦  Who should have authority to close a clash on a real project?

At what point should design coordination start?

◦  Is it ever too early?

◦  What would have been different if you had run this in Week 4?

◦  What is the cost of finding a conflict now versus during construction?

One discipline generated more issues than the others.

◦  Which, and why do you think that is?

◦  Is that a property of the discipline or of how you modelled it?

You resolved three clashes and accepted others.

◦  How would you communicate an accepted clash to a contractor?

◦  What happens to an accepted issue that nobody writes down?
