"This book ... adds to the impressive 'legacy' of learning which
is still emerging from the successful delivery of the London 2012
construction programme. The authors combine the reforming zeal of a
champion for change, who was there every step of the way, with
academic rigour, and the result is delivered with impressive
passion and commitment to the topic ... All spenders and suppliers
need to read this, to understand how conventional understandings of
procurement fall so dramatically short when applied to high
value-high risk acquisitions, which invariably is what large
construction projects represent."' Don Ward, Chief Executive,
Constructing Excellence, UK
Successful construction is often attributed to one or more
aspects of the delivery process from good planning, design and
clever engineering to efficient project management and quality
construction. Before any of these disciplines can begin, they all
require some form of procurement to select the team or supply chain
to meet a client's or a project's specific requirements. The
concept of PSE - Purchase and Supplier Engineering - originated in
the procurement of the construction and infrastructure required to
stage the 30th Olympiad in London during 2012. At the time of
writing PSE has successfully delivered almost 25bn of public
procurement meeting client and project requirements and without
legal challenge.
The construction of the venues and infrastructure needed to
stage London 2012 was such a resounding success that it boosted not
only the reputation of the UK construction industry but also the
confidence of the UK population in the country's ability to
organise, build and run a major international event. Its success
has been lauded as something from which clients and industry could
learn. The ODA has established a comprehensive and informative body
of evidence as part of a Learning Legacy. While the ODA is well
aware of the many elements of the procurement and supply chain
management, the complete end to end concept of how the Olympic
supply chain procurements were managed has until now not been
captured.
For example, how does one buy the stage for an Olympic Games?
How does one manage the details of thousands of contracts and the
many firms of contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers
and ensure that no one organisation adversely affects any other to
the detriment of the programme? How are a client's requirements
beyond those of the capital asset realised as part of the
investment? How does one measure programme exposure, or manage
performance? How does one measure capacity and the ability of firms
to cope with the work and manage the risks involved?
"Programme Procurement in Construction: Learning from London
2012" covers the planning and preparation of a programme's
procurement processes from understanding and developing the
client's requirements, to monitoring performance based on the
benchmarks contractors set out in their own tender submissions. The
emphasis is on a close attention to detail to avoid surprises,
while keeping a focus on the total programme. Purchase and Supplier
Engineering provides an overview of managing the interest of firms
in participating and the resulting capacity and workloads of all
suppliers, including the main contractors and the critical
subcontractors and material suppliers.""
Offering techniques, tips and lessons learnt from the
implementation of PSE on London 2012 and Crossrail, this book is
aimed at public and private sector clients, developers, senior
management and those businesses and professionals involved in
undertaking the procurement, supply chain management and delivery
of multiple construction projects or complex major construction
programmes.
