Year
International standards in context
Standards work and construction needs them.
International standards in professional services are the new frontier.
In Canada, growth in the number of standards
accounted for 17 % of the labour productivity growth rate and
about 9 % of the growth rate in economic output (real GDP) over
the 1981 to 2004 period. If there had been no growth in standardsin this period, real GDP would have been CDN 62 billion lower.(Source: Canadian Government)
In the United Kingdom, standards made an
annual contribution of GBP 2.5 billion to the economy, and
13 % of the growth in labour productivity was attributed to
standards. Standards were identified as enablers of innovation andfacilitators of technological Change.

International standards in context
Infrastructure project development takes time and risk, and investors will only commit the effort if the conditions are right. We want to encourage
policymakers to build more capacity to improve regulation and
institutions, and public-private partnerships that balance interests through appropriate risk sharing mechanisms.

International construction costs: the problem
International construction costs: the problem
International construction costs: the problem
Although there arecountries with quitecomplete cost relatedstandards andinformation sources,there appear to be manymore countries wherethe quality of publishedguidance and costinformation falls short ofwhat local professionalsmight wish.

International construction costs: the problem
“the industry as a whole needs to drive transformation through mutual consent on standards”
“the standardized definition of costs, classifications and measurements along the whole life cycle will lead to greater comparability and compatibility among projects”
International construction costs: the problem
Reinventing Construction: A Route to Higher Productivity
McKinsey Global Institute February 2017
One factor in raising productivity is reshaping regulation and raising transparency and the report states:
“encouraging transparency on cost and performance, as the ICMS project does”
The problem is not somewhere else
Delivering Major Projects in government: a briefing for the Committee of Public Accounts January 2016
Concluding comments:
One of the three key challenges for the Authority and departments during this Parliament are to:
“put in place the systems and data which allow proper performance measurement”
