Infrastructure in the New Era

Constructing Excellence

The current economic crisis has changed the landscape for all involved in the UK construction industry. No longer able to rely on a healthy economy for continuing prosperity companies have to rethink their approach to business and consider how they will survive the recession and maximise the opportunities as we emerge into a new economic and political era. Executive Summary In October 2009, the Constructing Excellence report ‘Never Waste a Good Crisis’, identified that the infrastructure sector had made considerably better progress than many other sectors of the construction industry in its attempts to reform and improve since the publication of the Egan Report over a decade ago. This report seeks to understand the key drivers for this change and presents a manifesto for further improvement in the infrastructure sector – a key part of the construction industry.
