درباره این اپیزود
Cost and carbon are measured in two different worlds. Clients want lower carbon. But decisions are based on cost.
Not because they don’t care. Not because they lack ambition. But because the information rarely arrives aligned.
In many construction projects, cost consultants work in one silo. Sustainability consultants work in another. They use different assumptions. Different structures. Different timing. And always brought into the process too late.
The result?
Two reports. Two numbers. Two conversations. And one client trying to make a high-stakes decision without a shared factual foundation.
At KOSMOS, we align cost and carbon. This leads to confident, fast, and fact-based decision-making on our projects. In today’s episode Elia and Anders (from KOSMOS) discuss how you can align cost and carbon on your projects – using an integrated digital quantity surveying approach.
What you'll learn from today's episode of Inventing Construction:
- Why having strong ICT requirements changes the game
- Working with data before a 3D model exists
- Why communication over blame culture is vital
- How to assess carbon at business case stage
- Why embedding cost & carbon in design is unconventional
- How it all leads to better decision-making

If you read the headlines, you might think data centres are the problem. They use energy. They take up space. They create “just a few jobs.” They’re described as grey, windowless boxes that quietly sit in industrial zones, consuming power and giving little back.But here’s the uncomfortable truth:If…
The construction industry has a people problem. Across markets, firms are struggling to hire and retain building surveyors, quantity surveyors, project managers, and estimators.
