Offsite Construction Fundamentals

While the construction industry is buoyed by predicted growth and expansion, it continues to underperform in four strategic areas: productivity, certainty in delivery, skills shortage and data transparency. Offsite construction - the prefabrication, modularisation and standardisation of construction processes and assets within controlled factory environments - continues to be quoted across government and industry as a potential catalyst in meeting these challenges. It also has a role to play in addressing the UK’s housing shortage.
