Build UK drives sustainable growth in construction by:

  • Developing a truly collaborative supply chain that takes responsibility for the delivery and performance of projects
  • Presenting business models that deliver improved performance and manage risk through the supply chain.

Key projects

Benchmarking Payment Performance

Build UK collates the latest data on the payment performance of the largest companies in the construction sector and central Government in order to provide transparency for the industry. We believe this will help the supply chain to make more informed decisions and drive good practice.

Delivering Zero Retentions

Fair and transparent payment practices are essential for a thriving construction industry and a strong, resilient and sustainable supply chain. That is why Build UK and its members support the industry ambition to move to zero retentions by the end of 2025. To achieve this, we are implementing a Roadmap to Zero Retentions with milestones to show that progress is being made.

Contract Terms Recommendation

Build UK has published this recommendation to form a common ground between clients and the supply chain on contractual practice in the construction industry. The objectives are to promote collaboration, encourage a fairer allocation of risk through the supply chain, and deliver better project outcomes.
