Client's group finally up and running

The Construction Clients' Group (CCG), an umbrella body for both private and public sector construction clients, is now fully operational.

The pan client body, which will be representing clients on the Strategic Forum, will be looking to actively support clients by promoting best practice principles that offer business performance improvement and best value from construction. 

Immediate CCG activities include:

• Surveying a range of clients, ascertaining the issues they are facing and their views on key best practice initiatives and documents such as Accelerating Change.
• Producing a practical and accessible best practice tool for the one off or occasional client.
• Staging an annual conference for a wide range of customers of construction.
