2. The AECOO industry is undergoing a digital
transformation.
It needs to, design and construction has
suffered for decades from remarkably poor
productivity relative to other sectors,
Today in an adversarial economy based on
legacy hierarchy the incentive is to minimize
information transfer between parties.
In the future world of networks, the incentive
will be to maximize the transfer of information
between parties.
3. Traditional Procurement
The first problem is around the created data.
The traditional way information is created
builds a top down hierarchy that tends to put
the originators in control of the flow of data
Collaborative BIM disrupts this process. The
control of the data/information now becomes
available to all in a (de) centralised
collaborative setting.
In a true multidisciplinary BIM collaboration
many professionals contribute to the “design”
of a building and in essence become a
network.
4. True Collaboration is the “Culture
Change” called for in the AECOO
Industry
Representation v Simulation (BIM)
Hierarchal structure v Networked
structure (Blockchain)
5. (It’s) Building Information Management (not modelling)
BIM models have great potential to
become massively networked ledgers
of engineering information shared by
multiple writers where responsibility
can be transparent, consensus is
assured, and immutability is secure.
This can only be successfully achieved through a network structure…..
Enter Blockchain
6. Take Blockchain out of its natural home of
cryptocurrencies it is somewhat of a
“solution looking for a problem.”
That's good !
Blockchain is very versatile and its
potential has been recognised by lots of
different industries now the potential is
being recognised by people within the
Design & Construction industry.
7. Blockchain
What is a Blockchain? It's a
fundamentally different technology for
databases with multiple non-trusting
writers who can modify the database
directly”
What problem does Blockchain solve?
Simply put it’s the trust aspect of an
ancient human ritual “the handshake”
an agreement for a value transaction.
How does it do this? It employs
cryptography to secure a unique identity
for the value transaction, this value
transaction is then “chained” to the
previous through a digital signature.
Why is it different to existing database’s?
It’s not centralised, it’s distributed and
each participant owns a live copy which
is updated when a consensus is reached.
8. There are a multitude of Blockchains available
all for different uses and purposes. The
Ethereum Blockchain is perhaps the most
visible and interesting because it features smart
contract (scripting) functionality.
Smart Contracts are autonomous scripts that
are stored on the Ethereum Blockchain that can
carry out the direct transaction of value between
untrusted agents.
The Ethereum Blockchain is a platform onto which “smart contracts” applications are
being built.
9. New Value Networks
BIM creates entirely new “value
networks”.
The notion was that 3D models would be
an efficient way to produce 2D
documents, the next evolution of CAD
enhancement. But it quickly morphed to
a point where the model created brand
new value networks: clash detection,
quantity takeoffs, field BIM, direct
fabrication, energy analysis––and,
ultimately, BIM models as a store of
myriad facility information.
10. The Blockchain has created new opportunities to incentivize human
behavior…….this is ”Culture Change”
We want to fundamentally change things,
We are committed to changing things,
We now have the toolset to change things.
Our current business model is broken
11. New Value Networks
Blockchain will create it’s own new “value networks”
.
This is in essence what BitCoin is, a Derivative (it
derives it’s value from something else)
The AEC industry powers its economy by converting
created virtual value to a physical real world value.
But correspondingly, the industry loses out because there is no method
of measuring and converting the intrinsic value of the real world artifact
back into a digital value for the AEC collaborative.
12. Intrinsic & Intangible Value
This synergy that exists between BIM+Blockchain gives rise to an opportunity to
develop a “new value proposition” for clients and stakeholders in the design and
construction industry.
Adding a new layer to assign value to intrinsic intangible elements of collaborative
professional services.
Rewarding the tangible value of the collaborative BIM database over the lifecycle
of the building by measuring into existence performance based targets.
13. #AECoin a Crypotcurrency for the AEC industry
Incentivise and reward the intrinsic value of the collaboration
through a AEC cryptocurrency coin using claim and validation
of claim as the consensus mechanism.
How?
Self and Peer Assessment - Claim & Varification of Claim.
14. BIM+Blockchain
What the Internet did for society and industry 20 years ago is what
Blockchain can do for the next 20 years,
That is to provide a platform for application development to drive efficiencies
and effect a digital transformation in the targeted industry.
Here we have the ingredients:
15. BIM, a visualised database of code simulating a proposed building
bringing with it a host of new value networks,
Digital methodologies supporting a collaborative platform
Cloud based technology a platform for multidisciplinary collaboration,
Reality capture technologies that allow for verification on the conversion
of digital assets to real assets,
Existing professional set to provide Oracle (certification) services to a
consensus mechanism,
16. Functionally permissioned Blockchain technology that provides a platform for
true consensus driven collaboration,
Internet of Things is becoming simpler and accessible for building operations
combined with Blockchain allowing a micro economy develop around an artifact,
“Smart” contracts, which are a set of coded instructions on a blockchain that
allow, when conditions are met , a value transaction to happen,
A real desire to effect a new paradigm in a difficult industry that is ready to make
a contribution to the environmental, social and economic fabric offering a way
forward for culture change.
“Quant” is Engineering Coin that will reward intrinsic intangible value leading to
a “new value proposition” for clients and AEC professionals.
17. Network over Hierarchy
Hierarchical structures are being
replaced by network structures in many
industries simply because networks are
more efficient, enjoy higher market
valuation, they are fault tolerant, and self
regulating
18. Digital Transformation in the AECOO Industry
Next, factor in Internet of Things IoT,
Artificial Intelligence AI, Machine
Learning ML, Augmented Reality AR,
complexities of integrating them all
would far exceed the ability for a
centralized management system. Such
scenarios may be textbook-perfect
applications for Blockchain technology.
“Asking people who are at the center of the industry to change must be accompanied by new processes
that are measurable, workable and exciting to adapt.”
19. A Cryptocurrency for the AEC Industry
QUANT is an extremely simple application
for Blockchain Technology that reverses
the economic incentives from creation of
value through debt (Traditional) to the
creation of value directly through human
productivity. (Digital Transformation)
An example of this is being
developed by IEBC, the
“Integrated Engineering
Blockchain Consortium”

a building profession bind them”

21. Conclusion
Blockchain is here to stay, it cannot be un-invented and while many have predicted
its demise, the idea of Blockchain software has only increased in applicability.
The AECOO industry has 3 choices, fight it, ignore it, or own it.
Today im going to weavr ⅚ strands to a poosible solution for of the core problems of our business. …...explained in my paper.
Today im going to talk about BIM Blockchain and Collaboration, my paper explains better what i am going to talk to you about.
Im very interested in collaboration how it works why it doesnt work and how to make it work better.
Collaboration is is foundational pillar of my PhD research and one of the avenues i have travelled was to seek out solutions from other industrys as to how they have addressed the problem of establishing trust .Collaboartion will not succeed if you dont have trust
its is this journey that brought me into the world of Blockchain.
There are 3 constituence elements to a blockchain The technology that facititates the time stamping and gathering of value transactions, a consensus mechanism to validte the value transactions and an incentive to make it work.
Egan, Latham, and now Farmer all point to the future that has collaboration at its heart..
But…….Asking people who are at the center of the industry to change must be accompanied by new processes that are measurable, workable and exciting to adapt
First we have a problem
The creation of the data set comes about through the interaction of a group(s) of design professionals, making it difficult to separate the groupwork in terms of intellectual property and ultimately causation. If you are a member of a domain profession that has been the controller of the information,
the culture change to a (de) centralised collaborative process is intimidating, unsettling and difficult.
Collaboration is unconfortable is should be it should make you question your knowledge it should make you question your role. But also collaboration should open you up to new knowledge that is created by the work of the collaborative group/\.
True Collaboration is the “culture change” called for in the AECOO Industry and ……
.
The establishment of trust is a critical factor in this…
..However what is new and now disruptive is that the nature of the building information is changing, the industry is moving from representation to simulation…..its a simple statement but with profound implcations.
But……..The nature of hierarchal structure greatly inhibits the required cultural change because relatively few people are empowered to make changes, whereas networked organizations have demonstrated a far greater ability to adapt to changes.
The potential of a BIM model is called the “digital twin”
a database that can become a “massively networked ledger” of engineering information shared (across a network) by multiple writers where
responsibility can be transparent,
consensus is assured,
and immutability is secure…..right across the supply chain.
.
We are beset with problems in our industry and there are people and innovative startups applying blockchain to these problems in the area of Payment Schedules, Supply Chain efficiencies, Material testing certification, statutory regulation requirements and more……...the internet as we use it now came into existence some 25 years ago and if some of you remember when you first connected into the internet the excitement of that ping, ping and the squeal of your telephone line connecting. And Hey great im on the internet……..what do i do now ? Blockchain is developing in somewhat of a similar way. The Etherum Blockchain is a platform onto which applications are being built which will allow us to run our business differently to how we run them now.
BitCoin is the incentive reward for disinterested partys to maintain the database and process the “value transactions” by confirming their existence, gathering them for interment into the next block in the chain. .
Blockchain is a platform…..The first Blockchain had one app Bitcoin.
Blockchain 2 is a platform where many apps are being built to provide efficient solutions to contractor Payments, Supply chain, long term storage solutions, IP copyrights and more and more.
But this is not tfor me the essence. Cast your mind back 10 years and how you used the internet and picture now how you use it…..It has influenced your behavior ! now Blockchain is about to do the same the difference being we grew with the internet now we can use this experience to didtate the influence blockchain can have for us.
.
Smart Contracts are Blockchains second distinguishing characteristic and have a really powerful potential to disrupt traditional methods of value transaction.
Now back to BIM, new value network
For me the most significant and exciting potential of Blockchain is it the new oppertunities to incentivise human behovior……..”culture change”
What distinguishes the AEC industry from others exploring the potential of Blockchain is that this industry delivers a real world physical artifact. The industry powers its economy by converting created virtual value to a physical real world value. But correspondingly, the industry loses out because there is no method of measuring and converting the intrinsic value of the real world artifact back into a digital value for the AEC collaborative. We discard this value and end up repeating the process talk to Bill East and he will show you how we as an industry do this reqularly
BIM creates this added value and now Blockchain can provide a mechanism to reward this added virtual value even after the physical artifact has been created.
What is not currently measured is the intrinsic intangible value of design and engineering. AEC professionals have always struggled to recover the intrinsic value of their labour. Blockchain with its properties of transparency, immutability and consensus validation now offers AEC professionals an opportunity to develop a “new value proposition” to extract reward not just for their collaborative services they have provided but also the intrinsic intangible value of their collaborative professional service over the lifecycle of a building.
What the Internet did for society and industry 20 years ago is what Blockchain can do for the next 20 years, that is to provide a platform for application development to drive efficiencies and effect a digital transformation in the targeted industry. Here we have the ingredients
“Hierarchy is inherently competitive and networks are inherently collaborative”.The nature of hierarchal structure greatly inhibits the required “cultural change” because relatively few people are empowered to make changes, whereas networked organizations have demonstrated a far greater ability to adapt to changes and threats.
Many people agree that it will play a major role in the disruption of current centralised systems. The AECOO industry apparently has 3 choices, fight it, ignore it, or own it.
