We live in interesting times, fascinating times and are experiencing a seminal moment in the realm of technology and computational science.
Construction is a trillion-dollar industry. It is also an economic-performance indicator and contributes to both local and global economies at scale.
The intent of design and construct (D&C) contracts is to cut costs by keeping both the design of the building and its construction to a single entity.
Three advancements — in generative AI, adaptive intelligence, and cognitive computing/NLP — are just around the corner. We illustrate their benefits and use cases using the construction industry as just one example.
What do chocolate mudcake recipes, industrialized construction (IC), Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) and artificial intelligence (AI) have in common? They hold the key to productization of construction.
Making decisions is a critical aspect of business and daily life. Whether it's a small personal decision or a major organizational decision, the process of decision making is a complex and multifaceted process that requires careful consideration of multiple factors....
The entire notion of a design and construct (D&C) contract is propagated on the idea of reducing the initial cost, but it often results in little regard paid to building quality and performance.

Many industries rely on the accumulated knowledge and experience of both middle and upper management. However, this can lead to jobs being done in a certain way simply because, ‘they always have been’, which in turn can lead to repeated mistakes.
The benefits of offsite construction are well touted, but where’s the hard proof?
AI models can benefit as much from soft data such as personal anecdotes as much as hard data.
Slate Generate helps teams productize design and automate take off and estimating to reduce costly mistakes and speed preconstruction and planning.
