Keynote: Information Management Initiative, “The call for action!”

Fergus Harradence, Deputy Director, Infrastructure, Construction & Rail, Department for Business & Trade

Fergus Harradence leads for the Department for Business & Trade (DBT) on sponsorship of the infrastructure, construction and rail sectors. He is currently working on DBT’s policies to help improve the productivity and environmental performance of the construction sector, including through decarbonising buildings and construction operations, strengthening the rail supply chain in the UK, and managing the relationship with the construction sector through the Construction Leadership Council.

In his Keynote session, Fergus will tell us why it is important for you, and your business, to engage with the Information Management Initiative (IMI). Plus, why this is industry-led (for the moment) with momentum building across the sector, which will encourage and enable Government to follow suit and get behind the Initiative itself, allowing us to meet the ambitions of the country as a whole.

This Keynote session is sponsored by BDP.
