Chairman of ACBEE, Former Director of the DTI Construction
Directorate
“I have been much encouraged by the support we
have received from industry and academe. There is widespread
understanding that good communication between these communities,
and with professional institutions, is crucial to the future.
We all seek an efficient, client-friendly UK construction
sector that embraces Egan thinking, partnership and teamwork.”

ACBEE was established to encourage the built environment industry,
universities and professional bodies to work together to improve
dialogue and provide more relevant training and education for the
future.
