Case study : assessment of innovation on a P3 project process perspective
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study focuses on the construction business, where new ideas, system technologies, new and or enhanced materials, innovative construction techniques and associated equipment and facilities management processes are being constantly developed to aid greater efficiency in terms of time, money and functionality. This thesis includes an analysis of innovation in terms of the process perspective between the indicative design and proposals submitted for the Interior Heart and Surgical Centre building (IHSC) in Kelowna, BC. The study focus relates to how the facility will be constructed and how it will be operated. Items reviewed and compared are: structure, schedule and energy consumption. For this study the indicative design was used as a starting point and basis for comparison with the proposals submitted in response to the RFP. For the purpose of this study a description of innovation was selected as, “The use of advanced technologies, methodologies, and clever ideas that result in a positive incremental change compared to the indicative design”. Along with this definition, a set of performance metrics were defined for the purpose of characterizing the proposals and then comparing them with the indicative design.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
