The Latham Report

The Latham Report, published in 2001, was a comprehensive review of the UK construction industry aimed at improving project delivery and collaboration. It identified issues like poor communication, delays, and cost overruns, and recommended reforms such as better planning, clear contracts, and increased teamwork among clients, contractors, and designers. The goal was to create a more efficient, reliable, and quality-focused construction process, fostering a culture of shared responsibility and continuous improvement across the industry.
