#224 Set-Based Design (SBD) in the building industry

Bernhard Metzger's podcast on BuiltSmart Hub
describes Set-Based Design (SBD), an innovative project
management method from the automotive industry that is now being
used in the construction industry. SBD is characterised by
parallel planning of several solution approaches, iterative
refinement and late decisions, which leads to increased
flexibility, risk reduction and higher quality. The article
highlights the basics of SBD, its benefits and implementation
challenges, presents practical examples and offers solutions for
overcoming the challenges. Finally, the importance of SBD for the
future of construction is emphasised.
