Five years on\, the Crown Commercial Service\, LHC\, NHS Shared Business Services and Ministry of Justice\, have used FAC-1 for procurements with a total projected value of over £57 billion. \nWe are delighted that David has agreed to return and to share case studies\, pitfalls and lessons learned from the FAC-1 Framework Alliance Contract in practice\, including: \n\nHow does FAC-1 connect multiple projects or the parts of a complex project?\nWhy is FAC-1 recommended by the Government?\nExploring FAC-1 in relation to NEC and Project 13\nWhat is the role of FAC-1 in net zero action plans?\nDoes FAC-1 provide a new approach to contracting for BIM?\nWhat happens when an FAC-1 alliance goes wrong?\n\nWe will also explore how the learning from FAC-1 frameworks can provide valuable lessons for other collaborative delivery models. \nPlease register to book your place! \nNote: Please check your junk folder if you have not received your email confirmation. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Guest speaker: Professor David Mosey CBE\n King's College London \n Professor David Mosey CBE leads procurement research at the King’s College London Centre of Construction Law & Dispute Resolution where he was Director from 2013 to 2020. David was formerly head of Projects and Construction at law firm Trowers & Hamlins from 1991 to 2013. \nDavid was appointed by the UK Government in 2021 to lead an “Independent Review of Public Sector Construction Frameworks” His recommendations for improving value\, improving safety\, managing risk and achieving net zero carbon are set out in “Constructing the Gold Standard” and were endorsed by Government and industry in the 2022 “Construction Playbook”. David also co-authored “Guidance on Collaborative Procurement for Design and Construction to Support Building Safety”\, working with Russell Poynter-Brown and a Task Group drawn from CIoB\, CIPS\, RIBA\, RICS and others to demonstrate how collaborative systems such as balanced evaluation\, early supply chain involvement\, multi-party contracts and BIM are essential to avoid another Grenfell Tower disaster. This guidance was published in January 2022 by the Department for Levelling Up Housing and Communities and was also endorsed in the 2022 “Construction Playbook”. \nDavid received the 2021 TECSA Clare Edwards Award for “professional excellence and an outstanding contribution to the legal profession serving the construction and infrastructure industry”. He is principal author of the “PPC2000” collaborative contract and the “FAC-1” and “TAC-1” alliance contracts\, adopted on procurements worth over £100 billion\, and he was awarded a CBE in the 2023 New Year Honours List for “services to the construction industry”.

In recent years\, however\, there are a number of projects and programmes that have significantly increased performance by taking a systematic approach to contract mobilisation. \nThis workshop will explore various approaches to mobilisation including: \n\nStarting early in the procurement process\nCutting across internal silos to align deliverables and contractual scope\nAligning internal maturity with desired partner maturity and behaviours\nAdopting a pragmatic approach based on the reality of the environment\nDesigning and preparing from first impressions to valued long-term relationships\n\nIn this session\, we will be joined by Liz Lawman\, Head of Mobilisation at HS2\, who will share her experiences in mobilising multiple major contracts within a single programme. \nThe event has been designed to cover general industry learning and encourage peer-to-peer sessions to challenge assumptions and develop bespoke possibilities for mobilisation strategies for those in the room. \nFor this workshop\, we’ve partnered with the Major Projects Association (MPA). The event is open to both members and non-members of the MPA and has also been advertised on their website. \nIf you would like to attend\, please contact sascha.flint@majorprojects.org to set up your registration.

The scale of these complex programme environments offer the opportunity to experiment with new practices and ideas to tackle even more complex challenges. However\, the significance of behaviours is often overlooked. \nWe see major projects comprising of three interlinked competencies; technical\, commercial and behavioural. Many project teams put resource into managing the first two competencies but the behavioural challenges are equally important and we believe they are inextricably linked to project performance. For example\, we must navigate complicated interfaces\, and manage cultural diversity and different ways of working – addressing these challenges is even more pressing on larger projects. \nThe question is\, how can we effectively manage these issues as the project scale increases? \nWe are pleased to announce that three exceptional speakers from Jacobs will be joining us for our next roundtable. Jessica Ellery\, Director of Market Solutions\, Gail Hunter\, Divisional Director\, and Josh Weatherley\, Construction Manager will delve into one of their current projects\, a real-life $500Bn giga project in Saudi Arabia. The Line is a linear smart city under construction in Neom. Using this live case study as a reference\, the speakers will explore how they are overcoming some of the challenges faced. \nThe session will focus on productivity throughout the project lifecycle\, including\, team behaviours\, and how incentivisation can positively or negatively influence productivity within project delivery. \nWe’d love to see you there to explore the topic further! Please register below to book your place. \nNote: Please check your junk folder if you have not received your email confirmation.

Taking their cue from the report\, private sector organisations have since come together to develop ‘Trust and Productivity – The Private Sector Playbook’. This brings client and delivery organisations together in a unique way to address ways of working outlined by the Construction Playbook and demonstrate how implementing a different approach can lead to more productive projects and better outcomes. \nTrust and Productivity could be a catalyst for change in the industry if adopted by clients\, contractors\, and others within the private sector supply chain. The question is\, how do we shift from one way of working to another? How can we create the right environment to enable a shift in mindset and leave behind the more traditional behaviours that are currently embedded in our delivery teams? \nTo explore these questions further\, we are delighted to be joined by Alison Cox\, Managing Director of Sir Robert McAlpine’s London business unit and contributor to the Private Sector Playbook and Charles Horne\, Project Director at British Land and lead on the Broadgate Framework – an exemplar project used as a case study in the playbook. Our speakers join us with a wealth of experience in varied delivery environments and each has a unique perspective on the outcome of the Broadgate Framework as contractor and client respectively. We are looking forward to delving into the practicalities of delivering in accordance with the playbook\, and sharing some of our experience in how strengthening the social competency of the team can help to deliver better outcomes. \nThis event is not to be missed! \nClick here to take a look back at the round-ups from previous Roundtable discussions.  URL:https://resolex.com/event/resolex-roundtable-the-private-sector-playbook/ LOCATION:ResoLex\, 1 Paternoster Lane\, Paternoster Square\, City of London\, London\, EC4M 7BQ\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Roundtable ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://resolex.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/ResoLex-Roundtable-The-Private-Sector-Playbook-3.png ORGANIZER;CN="ResoLex":MAILTO:roundtable@resolex.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20221101T093000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20221101T143000 DTSTAMP:20260511T134554 CREATED:20220920T145119Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220922T114954Z UID:234095-1667295000-1667313000@resolex.com SUMMARY:Rail Forum's Infrastructure Collaboration - A route to success DESCRIPTION:A Rail Forum event:\n‘Collaboration’ has become a bit of a buzzword in rail in recent times. But what does it mean for the supply chain\, why is it important and how can we ensure it works for everyone? \nCollaboration can take many forms – from establishing a formal joint venture (JV) company to a simple handshake in the pub! How do you decide what’s the best approach for your business and what are the risks and benefits attached to that approach? \nClients are now consistently citing the importance of collaboration in delivering the best value for them and their funders and the increased presence of JVs in the market demonstrates that in some areas at least the supply chain has responded to this. In addition\, Network Rail has expressed a need for ‘thinner supply chains’ moving forward with more responsibility being placed on their tier ones. This means that EFFECTIVE collaboration between tier one companies and the wider supply chain including SMEs will become even more important. \nFor collaboration to work it must be a win-win for all parties involved. This event aims to be as ‘three-dimensional’ as possible discussing more widely what ‘collaboration’ means/might entail for members moving forward. It includes a legal view and some real-life examples of successful collaborations to win business. \nREGISTER HERE: https://www.railforum.uk/events/infrastructure-collaboration-a-route-to-success/ URL:https://resolex.com/event/infrastructure-collaboration-a-route-to-success/ LOCATION:RaisE Business Centre\, Tom Pudding Way\, Goole\, DN14 6BS CATEGORIES:External ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://resolex.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Infrastructure-collab-event-partner-and-key-speaker-3.png ORGANIZER;CN="Rail Forum":MAILTO:info@railforum.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20221011T173000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20221011T193000 DTSTAMP:20260511T134554 CREATED:20220427T140750Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220927T122816Z UID:233585-1665509400-1665516600@resolex.com SUMMARY:Roundtable: Transferable skills transforming delivery DESCRIPTION:The ongoing skills shortage is an issue that is widespread and impacting every discipline\, especially in the delivery of construction and infrastructure projects across the UK. Many of the contributing factors are outside of the control of project professionals\, (such as an ageing workforce with few new entrants) though significant efforts are being put forward to respond to these factors including coordinated industry efforts to attract young people into apprenticeships and early starter programmes.  \nThis is one aspect of the approach to resolving the challenge\, however\, we want to look at it from a different perspective – as the rate of change in skills requirements accelerates\, how can we build flexibility into our teams to meet those challenges? What do those transferable skills look like in practice and how are they key to delivering within a complex environment? \nJoin us on Tuesday 11th October for a roundtable discussion exploring these themes further! We are delighted to have Rose McArthur\, Director for Transport and Highways at Cheshire West and Chester Council join us and share some of her experience in developing and applying those transferable skills on her career journey from a primarily technical role to using a broad set of skills to lead a diverse infrastructure portfolio.  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Speaker: Rose McArthur\n Director for Transport and Highways \n Rose has over 20 years of experience delivering strategic transport programmes across the globe. She joined Cheshire West and Chester Council in 2021 from Mott MacDonald where she was a Technical Director. She has delivered projects that include the transport strategy behind the last two Commonwealth Games in Glasgow and the Gold Coast as well as the movement strategy behind the build of the Sydney Light Rail and Melbourne Metro. She has worked as a strategic advisor to the DfT engaging with all 79 Local Transport Authorities across England to develop their covid recovery strategies for transport. \nShe was heavily involved in the surface access strategy development for Heathrow airport. As the new Director for Transport and Highways\, she manages a hugely diverse portfolio that includes Strategic Transport\, Transport Commissioning\, Public Transport\, Active Travel\, Flooding\, Highways and Fleet amongst many other areas\, developing teams who work hard to deliver what it takes to keep Cheshire West moving.

The Playbook provides some clear approaches to what we need to do\, though it doesn’t explain how to achieve behavioural change. In our complimentary report\, ‘Changing Behaviours in Construction: A complement to the Construction Playbook’\, we have considered the cultural and behavioural changes needed to enable this transformation of the industry. We’d like to take this opportunity to discuss how we\, as an industry\, might put these approaches into practice! \n \n Register URL:https://resolex.com/event/roundtable-putting-the-construction-playbook-into-practice/ LOCATION:ResoLex\, 1 Paternoster Lane\, Paternoster Square\, City of London\, London\, EC4M 7BQ\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Roundtable ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://resolex.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/image-from-rawpixel-id-3746802-jpeg-scaled.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="ResoLex":MAILTO:roundtable@resolex.com END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
