CIC commits to Conflict Avoidance Pledge to Champion Collaborative Working in the Built Environment

  •  

The Construction Industry Council (CIC) is pleased to share our continued commitment to collaborative working by signing up to the Conflict Avoidance Pledge. The pledge is a key initiative of the Conflict Avoidance Coalition (CAC); a coalition of 90+ leading organisations working to prevent conflict and reduce disputes in construction and engineering.

The Conflict Avoidance Pledge is a collaborative campaign to encourage early, constructive resolution of disputes. By signing the pledge, organisations show their commitment to managing conflict, proactively helping projects run more smoothly, efficiently, and without unnecessary legal costs.

Matt Molloy, Chair of CIC’s ADR Management Board championed this collaboration saying, “As a leading forum for professionals across the built environment, the CIC ADR Management Board recognises its responsibility to lead by example in encouraging early intervention and open communication to help prevent disputes. By signing the Conflict Avoidance Pledge, we reaffirm our commitment to fostering a more collaborative and less adversarial culture, and we are proud to join the Coalition and our peers in championing this important initiative to build a more resilient, efficient, and productive industry”.

CAC President, Len Bunton said: “I am delighted that CIC has committed to signing the Conflict Avoidance Pledge and to support the work of the Coalition. This is an excellent example of collaboration in the industry to reduce the number of disputes in the UK construction industry”.
