The Token Bungalow
London, UK
The Token Bungalow is a real-world development, comprising a small parcel of land with planning for a simple three bedroom bungalow with garage. This initiative strives:
a) to validate the hypothesis that an alignment of tokenised hyper-granular BIM, smart contracts protocols, and a D-CDE can leverage the trust and efficiencies offered by these technologies
b) to deliver a building that is measurably more energy efficient, less wasteful in the construction process and predictable in terms of both time and cost.
In addition to being predictable, the typically allotted time and costs should be substantially improved on compared to the more traditional methods of building.
These technologies are brought together to facilitate a sequence, from detailed design, contracts and construction fruition. By-products of this process will include a digital twin for operations & maintenance (O&M), for facilities management (FM), and to monitor life cycle costs (LCC).
The aim is to carefully record the process thereby revealing the true extent of optimisation that can be delivered to this under performing sector.
Found in Translation: The Industrial Strategy 2025
Article
What does the UK’s Industrial Strategy really mean for construction?
£600 million to train 60,000 workers sounds ambitious but does it miss the real bottleneck? The real challenge is getting experienced tradespeople to leave well-paid, secure jobs onsite to become the teachers and assessors we urgently need.
And if you're running a small business, managing a project or trying to hire, you might be wondering: Will any of this actually land?
In this first Found in Translation briefing, I unpack the strategy and make a broader point: Government is relying on business to deliver but for SMEs, the system is still full of blind spots, blockages and risk. Until that changes, the heavy lifting is ours alone.
BPIC Roundtable
Guildhall, City of London
Thank you to BPIC Network, for the opportunity to deliver opening remarks at the outstanding business roundtable at the Guildhall. It was an inspiring forum that brought together a diverse group of industry leaders and SMEs in the construction sector to tackle critical challenges head-on.
The room was filled with key stakeholders from the Department for Business and Trade, Royal Town Planning Institute, HS2 (High Speed Two) Ltd, Bouygues Construction, Marsh McLennan, Local Authorities (including the City of London Corporation), and many others. Together, we engaged in robust discussions around issues close to my heart: breaking down barriers to market access, ensuring prompt payments, and reforming procurement practices to better serve SMEs.
The event not only provided a platform for expert solutions but also marked the official launch of BPIC’s Construction Small Business Network. This new forum aims to empower entrepreneurs across the built environment by driving wealth creation and championing sustainable, inclusive growth within local communities.
