Bovis Lend Lease UK - Bovis Lend Lease is voted - Most
Considerate Constructor of the decade
Bovis Lend Lease UK (BLL UK) has been named the Most
Considerate Constructor of the past ten years by the
Considerate Constructors Scheme, at their gala awards
evening in London.
As well as winning the overall award across all
construction sectors, BLL UK was voted Most Considerate
New Commercial Contractor and was highly commended in
the Most Considerate Housing R&M Contractor category.
Additionally, Debut Services, a joint venture between
Bovis Lend Lease and Babcock Support Services Ltd, was
named Most Considerate Public Housing Contractor.
Bovis Lend Lease joined the Considerate Constructors
scheme in 1997, at its inception. In 2003, Bovis Lend
Lease became one of the first companies to become an
associate member and for the last five years, every
Bovis Lend Lease site has been routinely entered into
the scheme. Achievement in the Considerate Constructors
scheme is now also a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) and
an integral part of how Bovis Lend Lease measures
on-site performance. The Most Considerate Constructor
award was clinched with an average score of 36 out of a
possible 40 over the 10 year period.
Murray Coleman Chief Executive of Bovis Lend Lease UK
said, “I know that winning this award has made everyone
at Bovis Lend Lease tremendously proud, but it’s very
much a combined effort with our clients that has made
this possible and I would like to thank them for their
vision and their collaboration with us. It really
vindicates our whole approach to construction. Wherever
we build, Bovis Lend Lease always sets out to foster
close relations with the local community, including
schools and colleges, and to be good neighbours. With
the amount of development going on in the UK now and
over the next few years this is no longer a
nice-to-have, but a must have behaviour from the whole
construction industry.”
“This is a fantastic achievement and I’d like to thank
our Senior Environmental Manager Andrew Kinsey for the
hard work and commitment he’s shown in driving the
culture of improvement in our performance as considerate
contractors. Winning these awards is great recognition
for all the hard work all of our people have put in over
the years to improve standards on site and positively
contribute to the communities in which we operate. By
registering all of our construction projects, the
scheme’s code of practice has become embedded in the way
we manage all of our sites to such an extent that there
is good natured competition between sites to see who can
score highest. This can only be for the overall good of
the industry,” Mr Coleman said.
