    Abstract

    Integrated product deliveries as known from the product industry are beginning to emerge in construction. These are normally considered as physical systems that can be configured and customised for a specific delivery to form part of a unique construction project and help to reduce the complexity of the total construction project. However tools for handling the equally complex processes that leads to the final result are also required. This paper uses a specific software tool recently developed for user involvement in construction processes as a setoff for discussing the process focus as an equally relevant field for development of customisable integrated product deliveries in construction. This development and its causes challenge the traditional role of the architect as the centre point in the creation of physical wholes or entireties. If user involvement, as argued, can be considered as a configurable integrated product delivery then the architect can – using slightly provocatively a term from the production industry – be seen a configuration manager of processes shaping our physical surroundings. Products focusing on standardisation and mass customisation of the building process rather than physical systems could however become architecturally intriguing by leaving more open the solution space of the final result.
