RT-DCC-01

Research Team DCC-01 (RT-DCC-01) developed a set of research roadmaps that, if implemented, would develop the knowledge and practices to double the productivity of the downstream and chemicals industrial construction sector. RT-DCC-01 spent one year following a scientific process to identify a series of research topics and then prioritize and organize them into research roadmaps. The team collected research topics through a series of workshops and interviews, inviting subject matter experts to share how other industries have improved their processes. These subject matter experts were from a variety of fields, such as healthcare, neuroscience, computer science, and finance. Then the team prioritized and ranked topics with the help of a panel of industry experts and a Delphi approach. Finally, the team developed three research roadmaps from the highest-ranked research topics. These roadmaps offered different degrees of detail, but each included a timeframe that showed how it could be rolled out as a five-year program.
