Integrating BIM and LEAN for Project Delivery - Construction of a Major Hospi...CCT International
Webinar presented by Mr. Zuhair Haddad, CCT's Chairman for the Lean Construction Institute on 1 September 2016.
Hospitals are ecosystems of diverse functions: laboratories, imaging units, ERs, surgery and operating rooms, inpatient quarters, etc. This makes building them one of the most complex tasks, specifically room completion systems as each set of rooms have their own furnishing and finishing requirements. This entails the existence of several number of trades, where coordination grows exponentially in importance. King Hussein Cancer Center in Jordan is a prime example with fast track requirements (3 years delivery) which increase the complexity further.
Join in this webinar Consolidated Contractors Company (CCC), a leading global construction contractor who will share the above case study where BIM, advanced work packaging and Lean were implemented in an integrated approach to manage the finishing activities for the hospital. The presenter will share some of key drivers for the success of this implementation:
• BIM authoring requirements to suit project controls
• Leveraging BIM to manage schedule, cost, sub-contractors, and material delivery.
• Installation Work Packages (IWPs) creation
• IWPs management using Lean approach
• Collaboration using BIM to support Lean processes
• Lessons learned.
About the Presenter:
Zuhair Haddad is the CIO, Corporate Asset and Risk Management for Consolidated Contractors Company (CCC). He is in charge of mapping out and implementing the Project Control IT and Communication strategy for CCC group as well as directly overseeing CCC’s Information Systems, Corporate Risk, Communication and E-procurement Departments.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Different manufacturers, different models, and complex assets
Too much information to handle and to keep up-to date i.e. warranty, applicable parts, OEM Maintenance recommendations, etc…
Dynamic operation, asset moves very frequent between different projects in some country or overseas
Follow up on project receiving and release dates for billing and chargeability
Follow up on forecasted release date for planning and earmarking requirement
No need to centralize the updates and to send dozens of availability paper reports
Information maintained up-to-date
Information available for all where all sharing the updates
Decision support, statistics, KPIs
Near real time tracking for assets availability, and health
Visible & live asset expenditures
Available asset info smart filtering and criteria i.e. HP, Capacity, Winterized?
Up-to-date asset status accurate plan up-to 2 years
Up-to-date availability accurate billing per asset per project
Up-to-date asset health info maximized recovery
3 major countries in term of asset availability
Maintainable assets == excludes idle assets
Initiated PMs is maximum 10%-20% of what really should be done
But how done? What was done? How frequent it is done?
Asset is always in risk
Operational expenditures are high when a failure happen
Slightly helping and improvement compared to CM
But still asset is in risk and downtime is unexptected
Near 0% downtime
Significant savings in OPEX
Live reporting on error encountered with severity level
Forward planning for downtime, and remedy, and required spare parts
Imagine the size of the data been received, analyzed, and actioned! Then stored for historical record and statistics
Up to date meter data
Accurate planned maintenance
