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.
