Summer is here, and with it comes a busy period of delivery across our factory. As with previous years, this summer sees us delivering SEND projects to schools across the South – learning environments that we have been designing and manufacturing for many years, and understand the importance of getting them right.
Across our housing projects, more homes are being delivered to multiple sites across Wiltshire, alongside the near-completion of our Meanwhile Use homes in Havering and a 16-home development in Surrey for our sister company Newship Developments.
AI may be a buzzword, but for us, it is about practical application. We have been integrating AI across our design and manufacturing processes to improve accuracy, reduce errors and work more efficiently.
Delivering SEND Schools Across Hampshire
Manufacturing has started on a new SEND Inclusion Hub for The Hamble School, delivered in partnership with Hampshire County Council through the Southern Modular Building Framework (SMBF). This full turnkey six-bay building will include two classrooms, a life skills room, a group room, office and meeting spaces, and all supportin facilities, including accessible WC provision.
Over the years and working with the local authority, we have refined our approach to designing and manufacturing buildings that genuinely meet the needs of SEND learners, and each project we deliver adds to that knowledge and experience.
How We Utilise and Embrace AI in Our Processes
From AI-assisted visualisations that give clients a clear and realistic picture of their building before manufacture begins (as shown on The Hamble School SEND Inclusion Hub), through to how we manage and plan our production schedules, AI is being applied across multiple stages of our process. In design, this means fewer errors, earlier identification of potential issues, and a more collaborative experience for clients who can see and respond to their building before a module leaves the factory. In manufacturing, it is helping us work more consistently and efficiently, making better use of materials and our team’s time. The technology supports our people rather than replacing them, with the skills and experience of our team remaining central to everything we deliver.
Our Design Team is Growing!
We are currently recruiting for designers to join our growing design team at Rollalong.
Based at our Dorset office, you will work across a range of modular building projects spanning residential, education and defence, from RIBA Stage 1 through to site construction. We have positions available at both Lead Designer and Designer level.
