To an ever more collaborative approach.

As close to the forefront as possible!
- What part of your business has changed most in this new construction era and why?
The whole business has had to adapt to ever-changing compliance requirements driven by energy saving measures, health and safety requirements, DDA requirements, greater specialisation and general bureaucracy together with massive technological change from drawing board to BIM within a short space of time.
- How has emerging technology in the construction industry changed the way you do business?
The advent of BIM is likely to be a major game-changer requiring earlier and earlier collaboration between close-knit established teams.
