Digital Buildings Council
The DBC is a not-for-profit group of industry specialists who see a more collaborative and interconnected approach as the means of breaking downs silos and providing the necessary clarity and assurance to help fulfil the potential of digital buildings. Governed by members, the DBC aims to fill gaps in existing frameworks with smaller, focused and more representative agile working groups to drive demand through addressing the following issues: - Market confusion through too many conflicting voices, vested interests and inconsistency of language used. - Technology promise gap, between what is claimed versus what’s possible and is being delivered. - Change focus from the Why and What to the How of digital building implementation. - How to demonstrate ROI and think holistically about how it’s calculated. - Practical guidance on sustainability performance and how technology can help improve good governance and user experience. - Engagement of Cost and Project Management Consultants to mitigate value engineering through aligning digital outcomes and their costs early in the project lifecycle. Our activities include improving professional understanding through knowledge sharing and developing a common language and approaches between members. These initiatives aim to engage stakeholders across the built environment to enhance best practices and drive industry-wide improvement for the common good.
