In today's podcast we talk about how modern engineering consultancy really can change lives by creating sustainable infrastructure that focuses relentlessly on delivering creative, value-led solutions for the benefit of people, places and planet.I am deliberately quoting from the values page of engineering design firm Buro Happold in honour of the fact that my guest today is Paula Gough, the newly installed UK Development Director for Infrastructure responsible for bringing, as she puts it, “some exciting new thinking into the UK infrastructure market”.It is quite a challenge. Given the scale of infrastructure ambition set out by the Chancellor in last month's budget and the unbelievably tight financial, social and environmental constraints that come with this ambition for growth, we will need every ounce of new thinking to make it all stack up.But of course, Buro Happold is synonymous for innovative thinking around difficult problems from the moment the extraordinarily gifted engineer Ted Happold left his successful career at Arup in 1976. Legend has it that he headed to the University of Bath to became professor of Architecture and Engineering Design and then found Buro Happold after Arup refused to allow him to start an office in Bath.The firm remains the forward thinking, design and people focused business today. Famous for tackling some the globe's trickiest engineering projects and for doing so with a focus and attention on driving the absolute best community, environmental and economic outcomesWhich is why Paula's new role caught my attention. I first interviewed a very young and ambitious Paula Farshim - as she was then - for NCE back in 2007 when she was just starting her glittering career as Hyder Consulting's graduate of the year. She was certainly bent on creating change back then.So a few decades on and with this new role, how can she help a firm like Buro Happold drill deep into this world of infrastructure to rethink our approach and deliver those vital creative solutions to our global challengesWell let's find out ResourcesBuro Happold websiteSATRO - about the charityThe Budget - Nov 2024NCE interview - a glittering career (behind paywall)Being a DE&I and Fairness Inclusion and Respect (FIR) Ambassador

Listen in and let us know how you think AI will transform the engineering world.

Episode: 1068 On trying to copy nature -- harder than you might think.  Today, we try to copy Mother Nature.

On a recent episode of the Sustainability Podcast, I spoke with Ralph Rio from ARC Advisory Group. We discussed a number of fascinating engineering software topics including engineering design software, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and d digital twins. Here's a brief summary of our conversation.All About Engineering DesignRalph talked about his research on engineering design software, BIM, and digital twins. For those who might not know, he explained that engineering design software helps design things like plants, bridges, highways, and modern buildings. BIM focuses on buildings and the detailed data and documents related to them.The World of Digital TwinsOne of the most interesting parts of our talk was about digital twins. These are not just virtual copies but are detailed, data-filled models of real things. They are super useful when designing and building something. With digital twins, you can make sure everything is up-to-date and avoid mistakes, saving time and money.Challenges in the Engineering WorldEven with all these powerful tools, there are challenges in the engineering world. Ralph mentioned that there aren't enough engineers, especially in places like the US and Europe. This has led to more work being done in countries like India, which produces a lot of engineers every year.To deal with these challenges, there's a focus on making engineering work faster and better. Artificial intelligence (AI) is being used in design software to automate many tasks. Ralph gave an example of how software with AI can design a part much faster than before.What's Next in Engineering?When asked about the future, Ralph thinks there will be more automation in designing things. This will be done using AI, new construction methods, and the continued use of digital twins.A Call to Future EngineersRalph ended our chat with a message: he hopes more young people will become engineers. In today's world, where technology is everywhere, engineers play a big role. And for those who choose this path, it's not just about the money. It's about the joy of seeing your designs come to life.Our talk with Ralph Rio gave us a peek into the exciting world of engineering. As we face challenges and use new tools, one thing is clear: the future of engineering is bright, and we are the ones shaping it.--------------------------------------------------------------------------Would you like to be a guest on our growing podcast?

Change is inevitable! As technology students are exposed to changes, the need to change the teaching approach is becoming stronger. That's because you want a teaching method that harnesses the skills students are gaining from their interactions with the latest technology.  On the other hand, competition in the industry has forced companies to embrace technology. However, the shortage of personnel who are passionate about technology has been a big challenge. Academia is thus well-positioned to bridge the gap between the many tech-passionate students and the tech-starved industry. In this episode, Dora Smith interviews Tim Simpson, a Paul Morrow Professor of Engineering Design and Manufacturing at the Pennsylvania State University. Tim and his students have worked with a diversified list of hundreds of companies on up to 600 projects. More recent work has ranged from finding ways to preserve the aviation ecosystem. In This Episode, You Will Learn: How evolving technology has changed academia (03:08) What Tim does to stay connected to the industry while in academia (04:08) How academia matches the industry's quick pace (06:29) Tim's experience collaborating with industry (10:03) Tim's current work with NASA (16:53) Tim's experience working in academia during the height of the pandemic (23:28) Connect with Tim: LinkedIn PennState

It's no secret; the pandemic kicked off the great resignation. Organizations in all industries scramble for talent to fill open positions. One sector of vital importance in dire need of skilled workers to fill a talent pipeline in cybersecurity. A 2022 Cybersecurity Workforce Study concluded that the global cybersecurity workforce gap has increased by 26.2% compared to 2021, leaving a void of 3.4 million jobs.The threats to global infrastructures and organizational networks are never-ending, and without a fully stocked cyber workforce, those threats create untold damage.The question on Ron J Stefanski's mind: is there a talent pool waiting in the wings to answer the call, and what are today's disruptors doing to find this talent and bring them into the cybersecurity space? Two disruptors answered the call and joined Stefanski on DisruptED to talk about talent and to get the right people onto the bus.Mark Jaster, Founder & CEO of FOUR18 Intelligence Corp, and Marlena Sessions, CEO of NOVAworks, spoke with Stefanski about the situation.“The problem we are faced with today is there are way too many cyberattacks for our resources and our ability to defend them,” Jaster said. “We don't have enough people, we don't have enough knowledge about what's happening, and it's happening in real-time, incentivized by the payoff that the attackers have when they succeed.” Stefanski, Jaster, and Sessions discuss the following:• Developing talent to match job seekers• How to create skills to increase the talent pipeline in cybersecurity• Finding people who may not be thinking of a cybersecurity role but who could be great candidates“At NOVAworks, we are stewards of our taxpayer dollars,” Sessions said. “We don't say ‘no' to any job seeker. Anybody can come in. I could find myself out of work or a laid-off mid-level career professional, but we do focus on certain areas of folks who might have been historically excluded.”Mark Jaster is a growth strategist and innovator with a deep skill set and unique methods for solving the most complex problems of innovation strategy and product adoption in complex markets such as information systems, medical devices, biotechnology, and enterprise risk management. Jaster holds an MSE in Engineering Design & Management from Stanford University and a BSE in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University.Marlena Sessions has over two decades of experience working to change lives. Before her role with NOVAworks, Sessions was the Executive Director for San Bernardino County Workforce Development Board, worked in leadership roles for Grant Associates, and led the Workforce Development Council of Seattle-King County as the COO and CEO for seventeen years. She holds her BA in History/Political Science from Whitworth University and her MA in Organizational Leadership from Gonzaga University.

How many engineering design tools do we really need to get the job done?  Craig Brown says fewer, Mark Pendergast says more, and with that the latest Digital Battle is underway.  Innovation is often driven by new tools, and innovation drives the need for new tools.    In this uncharacteristically amicable digital battle, Craig and Mark examine both sides of the same coin and share the drivers, challenges and benefits of utilizing the new tools that are continually appearing in today's engineering toolbox.    On today's podcast, you will learn:   Why do engineers need so many tools?  People use the tools they are used to, whether they actually need them or not.  There are three areas of digitization- author tools, the database behind it, and the model libraries of knowledge- that Craig argues need to be minimized.  Engineering products have become very specialized, and often push the frontier of the possible. Core tools and fringe tools need to be managed differently, according to Mark.  Specialization requires more tools than was once the standard.    Should access to design tools be limited or uncontrolled?  Computer-based tools present a higher cyber threat and bring in unknown risks.  There needs to be a compelling reason to introduce additional tools.  Craig favors limits on tools while also allowing the options for better tools when they are presented.  Budgets create a practical limit on tool usage, and there are also abuses on the limited side.  Many tools don't have different physics but different application domains.  Tools are about more than managing a design, it's about managing the environment the tool works in and its behavior.    Will there always be a rapid pace of introduction of new tools?  Mark would argue that there will always be new tools, and those tools are driving amazing new products.  AI, big data and other solutions to problems are constantly and continually being invented.  It is essential to properly manage the transition from one core tool set to the next.  Innovation needs to be fostered in a controlled way.  According to Craig, energy efficiency will continue to drive innovation, and that drive of innovation requires new tools to help manage it.  Changes to manufacturing with 3D printing and additive manufacturing will also require new tools.    Final thoughts on the tool set The tool set is like a garden that needs to grow and be pruned as necessary.  The process of renewal and finding new tools is controlled while also encouraging innovation.  Tools that are not within your discipline deserve the same benchmarking as the tools you already use.    Continue the conversation with us within the Digital Enterprise Society Community at DigitalEnterpriseSociety.org.   Digital Download: Virtual Round-Table Series

This week, we had the pleasure of sitting down with local Writer and Producer, Beck Rourk!  Becky has been working in Corporate Marketing for many years, and most currently, specifically for Engineering Design and Construction. She is super creative, amazingly talented and really funny too! Oh...and she actually helped Dan launch his first novel! (Daniel Fox - In The Dark). So grab a drink and join us as we learn all about how Becky got started, her journey so far, and what let her to where she is now!  Here's an example of her work:  

If you are exploring the ISO journey, your current collaboration tools might outgrow your needs driven by ISO compliance. Your current legacy PLM tools may not support collaboration features. If your current processes are manual or done on a spreadsheet, you may be overwhelmed with the tracking and information required to submit to regulatory bodies. Like any other cross-functional process in your organization, your design review processes require multiple teams, including quality, engineering, and production.In today's episode, we have our guest, Adam Keating, who discusses the needs of design revision processes in the engineering departments of manufacturing companies. He also describes the deficiencies of legacy PLM systems and the number of custom development companies need to do on top of PLM systems to make it work. Finally, he discusses the user experience issues and adoption issues in the quality department that derail quality efforts.For more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs.rocks or elevatiq.com.
