Prefabrication as a Lever for Project Feasibility
In an era of constrained budget, rising costs, and volatile capital markets, higher education institutions and developers are finding ways to leverage the construction market’s innovations to advance a project toward feasibility. This session will explore how institutions can leverage the various prefabrication platforms to bridge the proforma gap while increasing delivery certainty, building quality, and speed to market.
Our expert panelists will discuss:
-What does prefabrication do for a project and why it’s important for the project pro forma?
-How prefabrication reduces waste and is the best path for ecofriendly development
-How prefabrication reduces project risk while accelerating the delivery schedule
-What are the five most common concerns among institutions when considering prefabrication
-How might prefabrication mitigate the impact of tariffs and trade constraints in the market?
-What local factors (labor, entitlements, etc.) make prefabrication a solid choice for delivery?
-Are there any local market drivers that do NOT favor a prefab approach? When might a campus NOT want to use prefab?
