The project, part-funded by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), is a collaboration between Leeds Beckett University, Horbury Group, the Dry Lining and Plastering Training Forum (DLPTF), Whitefrog, and Northumbria University.
It aims to help business leaders develop skills and mindsets to drive digital transformation. We recognise that the nature of the construction industry hinders the widespread diffusion of innovation. Factors such as the industry's fragmentation, demand structures, procurement, risk-sharing, and discontinuities in relationships are barriers to innovation.
Therefore, a supply-chain perspective is essential to boost the diffusion of digital innovation in the construction industry. The project seeks to deliver free digital leadership training to senior leaders and managers in construction supply chains using a hub & spoke model. The training model provides a coordinated approach to digital innovation in the construction supply chain.
