The National Platform (NP) has evolved from CRISP and nCRISP and will build upon the principles and work of these groups. It is an industry-led initiative that aims to engage a wider group of key stakeholders including academia and the research community at large. The focus of its activities is on strategic, collaborative research.
Since its launch, the NP has established two groups of influential industry individuals to steer its activities. Following extensive industry consultation, it is preparing a Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) for the UK, based around three research priorities including:
- Reduced resource consumption.
- A client-driven, knowledge-based construction sector.
- ICT & automation.
