As a company that’s passionate about delivering high-quality projects efficiently and responsibly, we’ve fully embraced Modern Methods of Construction (MMC)—and we’ve seen the benefits first-hand.
MMC is changing the way the construction industry works, combining innovation, precision, and sustainability. Whether it’s a residential development, commercial space, or community facility, MMC offers faster build times, reduced waste, and improved performance across the board.
🏗️ Why We’re Using MMC
More than just a buzzword, Modern Methods of Construction include a wide range of techniques—from off-site manufactured components like closed panel timber frames and structural insulated panels (SIPs), to modular builds that arrive on site nearly complete. These systems allow us to:
- Increase build speed – Components are produced off-site and arrive ready to go, reducing time spent on site.
- Ensure consistent quality – Factory settings mean controlled conditions, fewer delays, and less chance of defects.
- Boost health and safety – With fewer workers on-site and more tasks done in a controlled environment, risks are reduced.
- Minimise disruption – Less time on-site means less noise, fewer deliveries, and a smoother experience for clients and neighbours.
- Improve environmental performance – With better material efficiency and reduced waste, MMC is a more sustainable approach.
- Deliver value for money – Faster programmes and better resource management mean cost savings for everyone involved.
🔍 Our Approach to MMC
We treat every project on its own merits, looking at where MMC can make the biggest impact—whether that’s full volumetric modular builds, hybrid construction, or targeted offsite elements. By taking a practical and flexible approach, we’re able to reduce programme lengths, cut costs, and deliver high-quality finishes that meet (or exceed) expectations.
📍 Looking Ahead
Modern Methods of Construction are helping to shape the future of our industry—and at RAM, we’re proud to be part of that movement. From concept to completion, we work closely with our supply chain and clients to integrate these smarter solutions where they make the most sense.
It’s all part of our mission to build better, build faster, and build responsibly.
