CONSTRUCTION: BUILD UK
“Build UK will develop and
implement a solution to
the current bureaucratic
and repetitive process
of pre-qualification that
meets the needs of clients
and other stakeholders
and is beneficial to
the construction
supply chain.”
HEALTH AND SAFETY PERFORMANCE
Continuously improving the management of safety and
the impact of its activities on workers’ health is essential
for any world class industry. A consistent approach to
recognised standards across construction will enhance
performance, facilitate a more efficient use of resources,
and allow the industry to focus on eliminating, reducing
and managing risks at all stages of a project.
Build UK will identify where common standards would
significantly improve health and safety performance, take
the opportunity to address some long-standing customs to
eliminate waste and demonstrate the value of sharing best
practice in reducing accidents and ill health.
FAIR PAYMENT PRACTICES
Fair and transparent payment practices are essential
for a successful construction industry with a strong and
sustainable supply chain capable of meeting its clients’
needs. Determining appropriate business models that
deliver outstanding performance and productivity will
enable businesses of all sizes to confidently deliver an
excellent level of service each and every time and will result
in first-class projects.
Build UK will bring together the contracting supply chain
to consider what best payment practice in construction
looks like, and present appropriate business models that
will result in a thriving construction industry capable
