Actions Not Words: How Will We Deliver the Quality Built Environment We Deserve?
The arguments about why we need to improve delivery are well made and what needs to be delivered is clearly set out in the 10 year infrastructure strategy. How do we deliver that strategy? How do we ensure that the assets we build and manage meet the fundamental needs of society, the economy and the environment?
In the 2026 Constructing Excellence Annual Conference we will be focussing on the all-important ‘How?’
Our established background in sharing best practice demonstrates that improvement comes about through sharing and collaborating to drive meaningful and lasting change. We want the delegates to come away inspired about how they can build on the insight from the day and make meaningful changes in their own organisations, projects and roles.
Through the day we will be considering three core areas of how we delivery excellence:
- How do we define what we want?
- How do we articulate to the market what we actually value from our built environment.
- How do we define the outcomes we want from our assets?
- How do we implement value-based decision-making across programmes and projects?
- Who is leading the way at working collaboratively with the supply chain to deliver on outcomes?
CE Showcase: Value Toolkit, Performance Measurement, Climate Action is around the corner with practical examples of what we can do now to better support society.
- How do we set up for success?
- How do we select delivery mechanisms that will maximise outcomes
- How do we procure for those outcomes?
- How do we engage with the market to ensure we get the best for project outcomes?
