The scale and results of Acanthus, Lawrence & Wrightson our current work programmes are truly impressive. Accord a Accord Jarvis At the core of this programme are some 400 ACIS Group Demonstration Projects valued at £5.6bn, involving ACL Structures sustained participation by more than a thousand ACO Technologies individuals representing client and supply side Acoustic Design Technology organisations of all sizes. Innovations and best practices Actaris are regularly being shared through our 10 Regional Acton Housing Association Cluster Groups. In some clusters Rethinking Adams Kara Taylor Ainsworth Spark Associates Construction Centres are now evolving to bring together Airedale Glass and Glazing networks of local organisations and interest groups that Airways Housing Society are also working in support of the Rethinking Aldwyck Housing Association Construction agenda. Alfed McAlpine Special Projects At a practical level we have provided the tools to support performance Alfred McAlpine Civil Engineering measurement, benchmarking and targeted continuous improvement, Allen Pyke Associates and focused industry attention on the critical areas of sustainability and Allford Hall Monaghan & Morris Architects Respect for People. We have regularly published the Key Performance Allott & Lomax Indicator results that have consistently made the business case for Altonwood applying Rethinking Construction in practice, and organised some of the AMC Partnersip best supported conferences and events on significant developments AMEC Civil Engineering such as off-site manufacturing, the housing sector and knowledge AMEC M&E Services management. AMEC Project Investments AMEC Services We would not be succeeding without the tremendous support and Amey Property Services commitment from our sponsoring Departments, the Housing Amicus Group (Swale Housing Corporation, the Members of our Boards of Management, working Association) groups and industry supporters, and the efforts of our implementation Anchor Housing Trust Team. But most of all our success comes from the work of the people Anchor Trust and companies on the Demonstation Projects. Anderson Bell Christie Andrew Porter Our Industry is vast and fragmented. We have made excellent progress Andrew Sherlock & Partners to embed the lessons of Rethinking Construction but I am acutely aware Andritz that there is so much more to do. This brochure explains what we are Anglia Housing Association already doing and most importantly explains how you too can get Anglian Water Engineering involved.

What is Rethinking Construction? B.E.E. Rethinking Construction was initiated by the report of the Construction BAA Task Force chaired by Sir John Egan in 1998. BAA/AMEC (The Pavement Team) The principles are simple: Babcock Waterb Eng. – Client leadership, Babtie Group Bachy Solentache – Integrated teams throughout the delivery chain, and BAe Systems – Respect for people. Bailey Partnership Balfour Beatty Construction The objectives are to achieve radical improvements in the design, Balfour Beatty Major Projects quality, customer satisfaction and sustainability of UK construction and Balfour Kilpatrick to be able to recruit and retain a skilled workforce at all levels by Balfour Maunsell improving its employment practices and health and safety performance. Ballast Wiltshier Barber, Casanouas and Ruffles The task force proposed seven targets for improvement, which underpin Barclays Bank Rethinking Construction: Bardon Contracting – Reduced capital cost Barnes Construction – Reduced construction time Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council Barrie Tankel Project Management – Better predictability Bartram’s Elec – Fewer defects Barwick Construction Bathsystem SA – Fewer accidents Battle McCarthy – Increased productivity Beacon Housing Association – Increased turnover and profit.
