Coordination errors result in major project delays and overruns. However, contemporary consultancies rarely take effective measures to avoid such situations. I performed a study with BECA (Auckland) to improve collaboration within design teams in the construction industry. The study resulted in the development of a conceptual model called Virtual Knotworking (ViKW) – a model that can allow design participants to interact and coordinate design work in real time.
