Infrastructure construction continues to be on the top of the list.

UK Construction Week again today, and took part in a panel chaired by Deborah Madden of CITB – Blueprint for Developing Industry-Ready Professionals. Fellow panellists were Tim Balcon CITB, Neil Jefferson of Home Builders Federation, Alasdair Reisner of Civil Engineering Contractors Association (National), Brian Berry of Federation of Master Builders and James M. Butcher of National Federation of Builders and our focus was very much on how we can support a joined up, industry led approach to competence and delivering the new entrants we need. The three words that jumped out are Competence (everything starts here and the new regulatory requirement is a catalyst for change), Consistency (initiative overload and diluted messages are undermining the collective effort and Crowd (we have to make it easy for employers because unless we harness the crowd effectively we are doomed to fail). Some great questions from Cathryn Greville and Samuel Asiamah on how we are more inclusive and target the right message at the right people. Thanks all for insights.

Today is National Common Sense Day, and it's a perfect reminder for those of us in the commercial construction industry about the value of practical, straightforward decision-making. At Tri-Bay Construction, we know that success in our field isn't just about mastering technical skills; it's also about making sound, sensible decisions every step of the way. In construction, common sense means: 1. Prioritizing safety on every site, ensuring everyone returns home safely at the end of each day. 2. Maintaining clear communication with our clients and crew to prevent avoidable delays and misunderstandings. 3. Proactively identify potential issues before they become costly problems. By leaning into these principles, we keep our projects on track, stay within budget, and deliver quality work that stands the test of time. Today, let's celebrate the power of common sense to help us build better, safer, and more efficient projects! #NationalCommonSenseDay #CommercialConstruction #ConstructionManagement
