Having identified training needs, a series of short-duration off-job training interventions will be delivered to meet the supply chain needs.

The project is a pilot to train construction workers on the ‘Assured Performance Process’, a methodology produced by the National Energy Foundation.

Modules will be developed in: Induction for Assured Performance Process sites, delivering performance onsite fabrics trades; delivering performance onsite services trades, site management for assured energy performance.

The project will develop a programme to accredit organisations in the British Standards Institution ISO18404 for Lean Construction. 

One organisation will receive the accreditation and a best practice case study will be developed to support other employers through the process.

The guidance and training materials used to achieve this will be made available to industry so that other employers can go on the same journey and achieve accreditation.
