Offsite Expertise on Tap
Ask the Expert, located in the heart of the Offsite district, will allow visitors to ‘drop in’ with scheme concept details and drawings – without the need to pre-book meetings and without any consultation fee. Visitors will be able to meet one-to-one with leading industry experts to discuss live projects and explore design efficiencies, engineering challenges and supply-chain development. Leading offsite industry experts will be on hand to discuss project objectives and to make recommendations on design efficiencies, value engineering, comparable case studies and supply-chain opportunities, or just provide endorsement of current strategies.
Experts who are shaping the future of the offsite construction industry will be taking part…
Darren Richards
An offsite manufacturing expert with 25 years’ experience developing offsite businesses and Managing Director of Cogent Consulting – the UK’s leading offsite construction consultancy.
These leaders will be supported by team members with specialist skills in process and product engineering, strategies for the application of offsite technology on projects and system selection, plus new techniques on project management and construction integration.
The fact the ecobuild are prepared to invest in providing the Ask the Expert facility is enlightening in its own right and they must be applauded for showing initiative. When you factor this facility in alongside the Masterclass programme and the Offsite Buyers Forum the ecobuild platform will be a truly comprehensive experience for specifiers. We are delighted to be providing consultants on hand throughout the three days of the show and are looking forward to the challenges that delegates will surely bring.
Darren Richards, Managing Director, Cogent Consulting
