Second Edition
By
Duncan Cartlidge, Consultant & Course Leader, Robert Gordon University
Description
The construction industry has been undergoing rapid change in the last decade since the publication of the Latham and Egan reports, and
quantity surveying professionals have been at the forefront of those challenges. Changing attitudes to procurement and partnering, and
the evolving role of clients, have put the QS profession at the heart of delivering major construction projects.
Duncan Cartlidge assesses
what has driven these changes, and what they mean for the profession and for the industry as a whole. He explains modern procurement
methods, and assesses how much impact technology has had on construction management – and how much it might have in the future.
The
first edition of this visionary book set out the future for Quantity Surveying – now that prediction has become reality, New Aspects
of Quantity Surveying Practice is an even more indispensable guide to the opportunities and challenges facing the profession in the 21st
Century.
Duncan Cartlidge FRICS is a procurement consultant and teaches at The Scott Sutherland School and is an online tutor for The
College of Estate Management, Reading.
