Project description

Off-site Manufacture (OSM) has long been recognised, both in Australia and internationally, as offering numerous benefits to all parties in the construction process. More importantly, it is recognised as a key vehicle for driving improvement within the construction industry. The uptake of OSM in construction is however limited, despite well documented benefits.
 
The research aims to determine the state-of-the-art of OSM in Australia. It will both confirm the benefits and identify the real and perceived barriers to the widespread adoption of OSM. Further the project will identify opportunities for future investment and research. An industrial report will be produced that will map the current state of OSM in Australia, and also identify where future efforts need to be directed in order for the industry to improve.
