Constructing Excellence
Construction
National movement founded on excellence and collaboration - positively disrupting the construction industry
About us
Constructing Excellence is the single organisation driving change in construction. Improving industry performance to produce a better built environment. Our Movement operates at a national, regional and local level within the UK – and increasingly internationally too. We have a network of 9 regional centres covering England, Wales and Northern Ireland. These are separate organisations which carry the brand with a mission to deliver into that region or nation, often working closely with a university. We also have over 30 local best practice clubs, each with their own independent volunteer committee, which reach out locally to SMEs by providing monthly breakfast or evening meetings, typically with a speaker on a Constructing Excellence theme and with the natural bi-product of networking. Our history dates back over 2 decades to the Latham and Egan reports, which remain key to our agenda. The London Olympics and the Construction Commitments that were produced to aid their successful delivery were an important milestone in the journey so far. Our own Never Waste a Good Crisis report in 2010 sought to help the industry prepare for the recession.

Today we’re excited to announce that Constructing Excellence is now the open distributor of the Value Toolkit – the leading government and industry-backed initiative driving a ‘value first’ approach in construction. Developed in partnership with over 200 experts from across industry and Government to help redefine value and how to measure it. The Value Toolkit enables value-based decision making focused on driving better social, environmental and economic outcomes, improving industry’s impact on current and future generations. The move from the Construction Innovation Hub to Constructing Excellence ensures the resources remain freely accessible and positioned for widespread adoption. Constructing Excellence is working with a cohort of the organisations that were involved in the development of the Toolkit to create a community or practice around value-based decision-making and to drive implementation. Find out more about the Value Toolkit here: https://lnkd.in/eJ7mB8Z6 Why not join our LinkedIn Best Practice group to join the conversation around value based decision making and hear more from those involved with the Value Toolkit: https://lnkd.in/e9DxX_pb What an exciting way to kick off the Constructing Excellence Annual Conference 2025, taking place at BMA House today, with a focus on Delivering Excellence. We look forward to seeing many of you there!
