Mace Business School reports on industry lead times

27/10/2009

Brian Moone has reported that secured workloads have fallen and another quarter has passed without any increase in works packages, in the latest issue of Building magazine.

Brian comments: "Generally, lead times have fallen for the third consecutive quarter with no packages reporting an increase. Seven packages are reporting reductions in the time taken from receipt of order to mobilising on site, and a total of 13 have reduced their lead times over the past nine months."

He goes on to say: "Most contractors continue to report a reduction in their secured workload as well as the number of enquiries they are receiving. They also report no issues regarding the availability of labour, plant or materials."
