Rethinking Construction is the banner under which the construction industry, its clients and the government are working together to improve UK construction performance Context: Rethinking Construction

Rethinking Construction Launched following the report of Sir John Egan’s Construction Task Force in 1998 Objectives: –To achieve radical improvements in the design, quality, sustainability and customer satisfaction of UK construction –To be able to recruit and retain a skilled workforce at all levels

Set up to lead radical improvement in construction in –Value for money –Profitability –Reliability –Respect for people through demonstration and dissemination of best practice and innovation

Set up in April 1999 to promote radical change and continuous improvement in the housing industry

Set up in 2000 to promote integration of the Rethinking Construction agenda into Local Authority procurement policies and practices

Respect for People Industry improvement cannot be delivered without improving performance in people issues Six key areas of activity: –Health & safety –Training –Equality & diversity –Workforce satisfaction –Working environment –Work in occupied premises

In April 2003, the Construction Best Practice Programme merged with Rethinking Construction Separate business plans until April 2004 Changes are principally internal – the roles of the organisations involved still remain

MISSION STATEMENT Our mission is to help construction organisations (including clients) achieve greater profitability and long term improvement through reduction in costs, increased productivity and a greater fulfilment of customer needs, by implementing better management practices.

‘Building a Better Quality of life’ Construction industry contribution to sustainable development by –being more profitable and competitive –delivering buildings and structures that provide greater satisfaction, well-being and value to customers and users –respecting and treating its stakeholders more fairly –enhancing and better protecting the natural environment –minimising its consumption of energy (especially carbon-based energy) and natural resources

Creating a Self Sustaining Framework for Change Links with universities Regional sustainable construction strategies (East of England model) Align activities with these regional strategies and link them to regional objectives and targets

Sustainable Construction Strategy for the East of England Developed by industry representatives Linked to other regional documents: Sustainable Development Framework ‘Building a Better East of England’ Regional Economic Strategy

EAST OF ENGLAND SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION STRATEGY: HIGH LEVEL OBJECTIVES Our aim is to improve the quality of life, environment and infrastructure for all the people of the region. To achieve this aim, our high level objectives are:  to deliver a high quality built environment  to improve the quality of life  to deliver a high quality infrastructure  to improve the performance of the construction industry  to increase resource efficiency within the built environment. Each of these objectives needs to be supported by a range of indicators that will be used to set targets and measure progress towards a more sustainable East of England. Users of the Strategy should decide on targets and milestones that are relevant to their own particular strategies and programmes using the suggested indicators.
