We’re recognising the need for better outcomes, supporting things like levelling up the economy, delivering greater social value and driving a path to net-zero carbon emissions.It’s an encouraging shift, because we won’t achieve these goals simply by taking the lowest price, transferring risks down the supply chain, and using arcane procurement practices.
We need to see this recently accelerated pace of change continue, and perhaps go even further, as the government sets out its plans to drive an economic recovery through the way it invests in construction infrastructure..The Construction Playbook - making it possible.The Construction Playbook has been a fantastic example of how quickly it’s possible to move.
