In the summer of 2020, as the world struggled through the COVID-19 pandemic, Yamuna International Airport Private Limited (YIAPL) selected an international team to design Noida International Airport (NIA) in Delhi. The Delhi National Capital Region aims to serve 200 million passengers by the year 2060. The architectural team consists of Nordic, Grimshaw, Haptic, and STUP, and represents offices across the globe—Norway, India, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It became clear that the only way to work together, even without a pandemic, would be to the most-advanced cloud services—BIM 360 software. Maximizing a combination of BIM 360 Docs, BIM 360 Design, and BIM 360 Collaboration software, the team has designed the most-optimal workflows to suit the project. As the team members proceed with the four-phased architectural design from their home offices, this demo aims to present the routines we used, the collaboration processes we introduced and discovered, and the ways we brought together an international team to create sustainable world-class architecture.

Imagine asking your board for one of the largest digital investments to date operating as a leading UK contractor in an industry well known for slow digital uptake. We put forward our business case three years ago predicating a 20% productivity gain. Our deployment of Forma Design Collaboration is one of our most successful digital transformation projects, with 46+ projects and 1,400+ users engaged. A recent study across our multidisciplinary stakeholders comprising of architects, designers, supply chain, and a variety of general contractor staff has shown that 85% of users confirmed improved collaboration across all functions, team members, and functions; 91% of users confirmed improved visibility and understanding of design information; 77% confirmed the technology has improved design productivity and efficiency; and 86% would recommend the use of the tools to others. We will share details on how we built our business case and predictions, and how we delivered on this to create change in the industry.

Material waste in construction commonly adds up to as much as 30% of procured material and 10% or more of project budget, offering a clear opportunity for optimization. Wasted materials also represent a sizable "forgotten" portion of a building's embodied carbon, infrequently measured or accounted for. This session will start from the premise that material utilization cannot be truly improved in isolation, exploring how the pursuit of more sustainable construction is fundamentally interlinked with other measurable outcomes like quality, schedule, cost, and safety—each worthy of optimization in its own right. Drawing on case studies and backed by Forma workflows, the presenters will show how the pursuit of more sustainable construction correlates with project success. They will argue that lean construction, which aims to root out waste in all its forms, offers a pathway to triple bottom-line success, combining positive outcomes for people, the planet, and profit.
