The CIOB has launched a new Code of Practice for Partnering in the Construction Industry

Partnering is seen as the most effective way of tackling construction projects. This book explains how clients and construction firms using partnering can achieve ever higher levels of efficiency and certainty to provide world class buildings and infrastructure of all kinds.

Detailed guidance about the actions that clients and professionals new to partnering need to take is given followed by advice about the actions individual firms can take to get the maximum benefits from partnering. The book also describes how highly developed forms of partnering are developing into strategic collaborative working that turns construction into a genuinely modern industry able to meet all customers’ needs.

Chris Blythe CIOB chief executive commented, "The new partnering code of practice is a practical guide to enable firms to improve their joint performance through adopting partnering. This report captures the essence of partnering and how it can enable the industry to focus on improving their joint performance whilst providing more certainty in the construction process in terms of cost, time and quality.

“The CIOB strongly recommends this valuable publication and advises the industry to adopt the processes outlined in the code of practice for the benefit of all involved in the construction process."

Jack Pringle President, Royal Institute of British Architects commented, “In its clear, accessible style it explains why partnering makes good commercial sense and shows how to put strategic partnerships in place across the industry. I commend it to my fellow architects and to construction industry professionals in every field of specialism.”

Steve Waite managing director of Mansell said, “This Code of Practice is an excellent guide and helps everyone in the industry be fairly rewarded for delivering best practice.”

The book is designed to be used flexibly by a variety of readers, with coloured sections and executive summaries built into the body of the text to enable senior managers to get a quick overview of the guidance provided. The guidance is supported by check lists, case studies and research results that help ensure everyone involved in a project knows what they need to do to match and then exceed today’s best practice. Construction clients will learn how to get high quality, reliable and fast completions, and a firm price that represents value for money.

Partnering in the Construction Industry is published by Elsevier and endorsed by the Royal Institute of British Architects, Institution of Civil Engineers, Chartered Institute of Housing, The Housing Forum and Constructing Excellence in the Built Environment.

The book is available through the CIOB’s Construction Books Direct on CIOB's website.
