Working with industry, government and the wider building system
In addition to the industry needs survey, BRANZ gets a comprehensive view of the issues affecting the building industry by working with:
- industry groups
- government agencies
- building research providers.
We also monitor trends in the international building community. Input from these groups helps to inform our investment priorities.
Construction Sector Accord
The introduction of the Construction Sector Accord in 2019 was an important milestone. It marked a shared commitment between government and industry to transform the sector. BRANZ is committed to working closely with the Construction Sector Accord team.
