About Us

Since 2001 we have trained and mentored public and private sector clients in establishing long term relationships with their key supply chain partners as well as train, coach and assist the establishment of Integrated Project Teams to optimise their construction processes and deliver better value for ALL stakeholders through the implementation of Collaborative Working.

Our approach has been shown to not only reduce costs and improve efficiency and effectiveness of the client organisations and contractors we work with, it also acts as a catalyst of change, where businesses become unrecognisable from how they operated before we became involved.

Our Approach

Our Collaborative Working Approach has been developed since the launch of Rethinking Construction in the UK,1997, through a number of Egan based pathfinder projects including, Defence Estates Prime Contracting, NHS Estates Procure21, BAA, Lloyds TSB, Asda, and Social Housing Providers such as Fusion21, Coastal Housing Group and Family Housing Association to name but a few.

Trust, Honesty, Openness and Flexibility

Are the the foundations of our ALL our Services and Relationships with our Customers. We Always project six ethical values that support our Collaborative Working Approach:

Fairness: Team members being fair and objective; dealing with others as they would like be treated themselves.

Unity: Working together as members of one team with a common goal.

Seamless: Every team member can take action on behalf of the whole team.

Initiative: Team members challenging themselves and others to find creative solutions to problems, adding value.
