4BT provides methods and tools for optimizing repair, renovation, and new build deliver via the implementation of a proven process-based approach. Many public sector owners overlook the core means and management of facilities construction planning, procurement, and project delivery. As a result, each project is dealt with as a totally “new” exercise. This results in excessive, redundant, and inefficient activities and poor outcomes.
Overlooking the significance of the construction delivery method and the need for a consistent programmatic approach is the primary cause of construction project failure. Without a efficient core process applied to every project, waste in all formats is the most likely outcome. The result is incompatible with a public sector professional’s role of financial stewardship.
