The CLC is delighted that BuildUK and CECA yesterday announced the launch of the first phase of a new pre-qualification (PQ) system designed to reduce the complexities and inefficiencies that are costing the construction industry up to £1 billion a year. This announcement supports the commitment in the Construction Sector Deal to create a standardised PQ process across the public and private sectors which will generate cost savings for firms in the construction supply chain by ensuring that they only have to go through a single certification process, rather than several.
The CLC will work closely with BuildUK and CECA to ensure that this system is quickly and effectively implemented.
