"This is one hell of a good book to read"
Tony Bingham, Building Magazine

Partnering is increasingly used in the UK construction industry, ensuring that clients get the best possible value from their procurement process. So the publication of Partnering in the Construction Industry is very timely and welcome. 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.
