Cost certainty Higher productivity rate to a lower cost Reduced number of defects Benefits the prs due to the speed of revenue Circular economy with systems designed to be disassembled
• • •
Reduced overall manufacture and assembly time Reduced risk of delays Greater programme time certainty

Conventional construction has a larger fatal rate and major injury rate than the manufacturing industry The number of in site hours can be reduced by 60%-80% which reduces the occurrences of injury

Reducing the number • of deliveries to the site, and the number of site • staff, an offsite project can reduce pollution and road congestion up to 20% Noise is also minimised as more activities are done offsite

Whilst established practices have probably prevented offsite methods being more prevalent, the current crisis creates the demand and environment for new approaches.
Delivering value Based on these characteristics the ability of offsite to meet current demands and add value at all three stages are summarised below. These are presented in terms of requirements of the CLC roadmap and opportunity.
Reduction of waste produced onsite Less risk of pollution to local watercourses
