SUMMARY:Members Forum - Performance Measurement Forum: Delivering value through performance measurement
DESCRIPTION:For 20 years Constructing Excellence has been the go-to place for what and how to benchmark since the construction industry KPIs were launched\, wallcharts and an annual industry performance report were published\, and masterclasses were run. \nAround 2004 we worked with Salford University to make available an online portal for collecting\, analysing and reporting KPIs to enable people to measure and compare their own performance on the basis of ‘apples with apples’\, as a basis for prioritising improvements. \nWe have now launched a major upgrade to that portal\, our new SmartSite KPIs tool. This has been developed in collaboration with BRE under the strategic direction of our cross-industry membership. It is a critical tool for comparing any project or portfolio with a) others in peer group\, b) CE members c) national performance\, d) other sectors\, e) international performance. \nOur national members have privileged access to the tool\, as well as the ability to influence the future direction of this critical stream of our work through our new Performance Measurement Forum. The Performance Measurement Forum will review the current core set of KPIs in the context of right measures for the Construction Sector Deal\, productivity\, social value\, and demonstrating the benefits and business case from transformational approaches such as offsite\, BIM. \nView the agenda and book your place here

SUMMARY:Breakfast Seminar: The Productive Office
DESCRIPTION:This seminar is dedicated to the impact of indoor environmental qualities on productivity. LCMB and Oxford Brookes University\, together with their Consortium Partners  will discuss their findings on The Whole Life Performance Plus project\, a research study supported by Innovate UK and the EPSRC. \nThe project has produced a productivity guide to help measure and improve workplace performance and productivity. The aim is for the tested solution to then be developed into a software-based platform that can dynamically control the indoor environmental conditions to maximise occupant productivity and comfort conditions\, whilst minimising energy use and costs in commercial office environments. \nCome and join us on 29th November at Wedlake Bell\, London and participate in the thought-provoking debate and discussion. \n\nClick here to register

SUMMARY:ECI Annual Conference - Rethinking how capital programmes are delivered
DESCRIPTION:This conference will build on the work programme of ECI during 2018\, which has addressed the challenges faced across Europe in the engineering and construction sector\, which is increasingly facing: \n\nProjects with sanctioned investment becoming unviable\,\nRising uncertainty about project outcomes related to cost\, completion dates\, start-up and plant performance and reliability\,\nFrequent disputes and major cost and delay claims that challenge resolution without arbitration or litigation\nDifficult relationships between project teams and contractors.\n\nIndustry leaders have expressed deep dissatisfaction with current ways of working and are hungry for a different approach. ECI has been working with the Construction Industry Institute in the USA on such a new model\, which embraces the opportunities afforded by digital technology to improve capital project outcomes. The conference will share thinking to date on this model as well as perspectives particularly from large owners\, users and clients of the sector. \nConfirmed speakers include Paul van Weert – Shell\, Melanie Sachar – EDF\, Frank von Willert – McKinsey & Company\, Stephen Mulva – Construction Industry Institute Texas\, John Fotherby – ECI Chair and Don Ward – ECI Chief Executive. \nAttendees at the conference will include facility sponsors\, owners and operators\, architects\, engineering firms and contractors\, manufacturers and suppliers and engineering and construction support providers as well as other related services including digital/IT\, legal\, finance and accounting. This is a great opportunity to be part of a movement that re-shapes our industry over the coming years\, as well as expanding your network and providing immediately some innovative ideas to take away that you can apply in your own organisation. \nTo book your place please click here
