ABSTRACT

The overarching vision of these priorities is to achieve a vibrant, competitive, internationally engaged construction sector that meets the needs of both its public and private sector clients in safety with reliability and consistency. The developments include project bank accounts and the use of information technology (IT), professionalising construction skills and strengthening London as the major international construction market involving contractors, consultants, the English legal system and construction finance. The overall vision is to achieve a vibrant, advanced, competitive, internationally engaged construction sector that meets the needs of government and private sector clients in safety with reliability, humanity and consistency. The purpose of this vision for the construction industry is not to offer a panacea for the volatility of construction, but to raise business confidence and inspire construction firms to create a successful industry, of which all could be proud.
