Learn by job function or offsite process
We recommend resources both by job function and offsite construction process.
Why Offsite for Everyone?
Offsite should be a key in any sustainability strategy. Why?
For us to meet the targets set out in the Government’s Construction Playbook, we need a shift in behaviour and a shift to further offsite methods of construction.
Organisations and individuals should look to introduce these methods within their own business or job role.
That’s why we created Offsite for Everyone.

The offsite construction process is illustrated in the construction industrialisation wheel. Five key competencies need to be understood if we are to embrace an industrialised approach; design for manufacture & assembly (DfMA), offsite manufacture, logistics and onsite assembly, followed by best-in-class maintenance. These five building blocks are underpinned by eight management skills that are, in our opinion, necessary to drive change.
