ImplementationPerformance MeasuresWhen it came to practice, it was a different story for BAA. To keep the project under control, BAA developed a measurement system consisting of “five key performance indicators (KPIs), ten key measures and 37 performance data points”. (Basu et al., 2009). The aim of these measures was to ensure that the main project objectives were achieved, key stakeholders identified, specifications met, baselines agreed, etc. Additionally, to apply the metrics to the project, measurement metrics guidance notes were created to communicate to all project members. project team. Additionally, based on these key metrics, reports were created and published regularly (Basu et al., 2009).T5. Metrics Triangle (Basu et al., 2009).Integrated teamsTo promote collaboration between the parties participating in the T5 project, integrated teams were created. The members of these teams were chosen on the basis of their skills and expertise and regardless of their original organization. Additionally, unlike other normal projects where team members came from different organizations and worked as a virtual team, integrated team members were co-located. Additionally, integrated teams were formed at the start of the project, allowing them to identify potential project issues at their level. nascent stage. As a result, the team was able to avoid issues in later stages, enabling them to deliver a safe and strong design. For example, “the development of pavement concrete has resulted in a 25% reduction in bulk materials needed for aircraft parking stands and roadways.” (Potts and Ankrah, 2008).Procurement StrategiesProcurement practices implemented by BAA have been considered not only best practice in construction......middle of paper...... the optimal solution. As a result, architectural drawings conflict with technical drawings as well as shop drawings. Conflicts identified during the design process are generally not a problem; however, those identified at sites resulted in significant costs and delays. For T5, BAA estimated that “the cost of lost time and materials alone represents at least 10% of the total project cost.” (Potts and Ankrah, 2008).BAA used a “single model environment (SME)”. “EMS is a real-time computer-aided design system for digital prototyping and simulation to provide a photorealistic representation of the project and a “walkthrough” of the final design. SME allowed all members of the design team to collaborate, allowing them to reduce design errors and conflicts. The results would be “a more accurate estimate of costs at the design stage”. (Davies et al.., 2009).
