Constructing Excellence South West is the single organisation charged with driving the change agenda in construction within the south west region and we form part of the Constructing Excellence Regional Partnership (CERP). We exist to improve industry performance in order to produce a better built environment.
We are a cross-sector, member-led organisation working across the entire supply chain to benefit the construction industry and its stakeholders. Through our events, we promote knowledge sharing, collaborative problem-solving and showcase best practice. We empower members to shape the industry, especially through our member-led Focus Groups.
