Professional
service organisations can now demonstrate their considerate credentials

20 May 2019: The Considerate Constructors Scheme – the
organisation established to improve the image of construction – has expanded to
offer professional service organisations the opportunity to register with the
Scheme.

Eligible organisations providing professional services to the
construction industry, such as architects, engineering consultancies,
surveyors, accountants and lawyers, are now able to join the 7,000 plus
construction sites, companies, suppliers and clients of construction projects
who register with the Scheme each year.

Professional services account for around 11% (£186 billion) of the
UK’s Gross Value Added and employ around 13% (4.6 million) of the UK’s
population.*

This exciting development comes at the request of those already
registered with the Scheme to ensure their entire supply chain is part of the
Scheme, as well as an increasing number of professional service organisations
wishing to be part of the Scheme to help improve their standards in considerate
construction.

Edward Hardy, Chief Executive of the Considerate Constructors
Scheme said: “We are delighted to welcome eligible professional service
organisations to the Scheme. This is a significant development for our entire
construction industry, as professional services form an integral part of the
industry’s supply chain.

“The impact such organisations can have in becoming part of the
Considerate Constructors Scheme to improve their standards will no doubt have a
significant influence on improving the overall image of our industry.”
