Building Services Procurement

---

During no other time in the history of the construction industry, has the subject of
procurement dominated the debate on possible reforms. Regardless of country, from the
United Kingdom, to Malaysia, Australia and America, the industry has been bombarded
by material on how to improve the construction process. Procurement has often been the
dominant issue, with the plethora of “new” procurement arrangements demonstrating the
industry’s and its clients’ deep desire to seek improvements in the manner in which a
project is formulated and executed.
Despite all of this, something is lacking. Very few of these industry reports or calls for
improvements understand the complexity of initiating, then arranging, a supply chain as
complex as that found on the average building services installation.
It would be arrogant to think that a single textbook will level this imbalance.
Nevertheless, this text has been written to address the subject and cover as widely as
possible the issues that have the greatest effect on the successful procurement of building
services.
