The Construction Innovation Hub has launched a new quality assurance framework setting out a best practice approach for manufacturers to follow during the creation of new platform systems and offsite manufactured construction products.

Lee Shepherd is back at BAM as programme manager for modern methods of construction (MMC). He talks to Denise Chevin about his aspirations, including significantly reducing time off the overall project programme.

The Construction Innovation Hub has published in beta form a rulebook that aims to boost the adoption of the platform approach to construction.

A bespoke platform approach from Bryden Wood will be used to enable the re-engineering of existing coal-fired power stations to fight climate change.
