The Manchester Hub held a series of events during August focusing on the issue of quality, featuring big names in construction.

Its key event was a panel discussion on quality in construction. The virtual event was introduced by Mark Beard, CIOB’s president who is known for his passion for quality and ‘right first time’, with presentations from: Paul Nash, on the new Building Safety Bill; Stephen Hodder MBE, CIC chairman, on the revamp of CIC Design Quality Indicator (DQI) to Project BEQueST (Built Environment Quality Standard and Tools); and Tom Barton, executive director of Get it Right Initiative (GIRI), on the importance of right first time and driving a quality culture. 

The presentations were followed by discussions on clerk of works, the role of the commercial team in quality, value engineering and how professional bodies can drive industry culture change.
