Three Key Questions…..
1/ What does the future hold for the Scottish construction sector?
The significant curtailing of public sector capital expenditure has been a
severe blow for a Scottish construction industry disproportionately reliant on
public sector investment. Coupled with limited private investment, the
construction industry in Scotland is estimated to have contracted by a further
3% in 2011 with the forecast of another difficult year ahead.

Three Key Questions…..
2/ What impact will SFT have on the future management of the supply chain?
Despite the prevailing gloomy outlook, there are a number of significant
developments currently ongoing. Notable changes to the construction
landscape include the establishment of the Scottish Futures Trust (SFT) “with a
responsibility to deliver value for money across all public infrastructure
investment”.

3/ What key opportunities exist for research and industry to collaborate?
Notwithstanding the future role and impact of SFT, there are a number of other
significant developments facing the construction sector in Scotland, including
the NHS Framework Scotland (second generation), the low-carbon agenda and
Scottish Independence.
SCM Academic / Industry Forum
Evidence from the research would suggest supply chain
management ‘creep’ as opposed to ‘substantive’ change.
Reflecting on initial research aims and ambitions, interventions
and the co-production of pragmatic supply chain solutions has
proved to be elusive.
Potential for further avenues of industry / academic research
