Partnering
During
the 1990's the Latham and Egan reports "Building the Team"
and "Rethinking Construction" identified the inefficiency
inherent in an adversarial Construction Industry. In particular "Rethinking
Construction" set a challenge for change and improvement.
Clients,
designers and contractors have taken up the gauntlet and developed
different types of business relationships.
Notable
among these is 'partnering'. Under this type of arrangement parties
to a contract work towards agreed goals which will benefit all concerned.
Partnering thrives in an atmosphere of trust and openness and flounders
when co-operation is absent.
The answer to 'what is partnering?'
is increasingly well ...established
in the industry psyche.
