This report has been written by a team from Pinsent Masons, Costain and the University of Cambridge and is based upon our collective experience of working on, advising on and researching projects, together with a literature review, case studies and a number of interviews with clients and noted practitioners. \r

The purpose of this report is to outline what the industry has done to start on this journey and what the immediate priorities are which the industry must address to become proficient at implementing and accelerating innovation. \r

Contractual environments and structures can act as both an enabler and a blocker of innovation in all of its forms. Construction engineering clients and major engineering solutions providers are moving toward a contractual environment that encourages innovation in recognition that value will be created via the use of talented people and the availability of new ideas rather than the traditional price driven approach. The report presents useful recommendations that deserve an industry focus, but as separate organisations and indeed individuals, all can take something away and make a difference.
