This is creating confusion surrounding outputs in terms of what people are receiving and why.

This was a significant step because the problems facing construction are long-standing and well known.During the last few decades, while other large industries have gone through transformational levels of change, the construction industry has remained relatively static.

Following on from the Latham and Egan reports in the 1990s, in 2016 the Farmer Report concluded that the industry must “modernise or die.”.Sully says that the key element we’ve been missing in construction is the ethos of collaboration and innovation found in other industries.It’s a somewhat odd situation considering that the construction industry is inherently a collaborative one.

Every asset we build requires many different parties to work together, but when the projects end, people go their separate ways as competitors.Although that’s all fine and good, ultimately it means we aren’t taking learnings forwards from one project to another.

Things aren’t being effectively fed back or built upon, and so we aren’t seeing the beneficial changes we desire.

Sully believes it’s this lack of considered collaboration, and the need to overcome such issues, which is ultimately responsible for the lack of government funding we’ve seen, despite long-standing acknowledgement of the problems..are necessary to drive sector-wide change.

Multi-stakeholder reports and materials on the practical application of MMC with collaboration from builders, engineers, designers, suppliers, and integrators, will enable everyone to be heard and shape the change.. 5.We need to get rid of offsite stigma..

The construction industry has been stuck in a time warp of lowest price, maximum risk transfer.A platforms approach to construction has a profound impact on productivity, cost, carbon, skills, safety, and the potential for digital workflows to automate key pieces of the design process.
