Quotation
To operate successfully in construction in 2022, a business needs solid systems in place that everyone understands and buys into. This is the foundation of compliance. Compliance is no longer a choice but mandatory. A company cannot operate sustainably without effective systems in place, systems that people accept as working practices and not something to pay mere lip service to.
Just doing ‘enough’ is no longer acceptable.
