'Be Valuable' written by Richard Saxon CBE
'Be Valuable' was born from a workshop held by Be's predecessor the Reading Construction Forum in 2002 on the subject of 'Designing the Future'. Richard Saxon became a most articulate and convincing champion of 'value' and 'integrated solution providers' and carried the themes forward into Be.
When nCRISP were looking for a champion to run a working group on value in 2004, Be was the natural choice and Richard the obvious choice to chair it. That group's illustrious and powerful membership produced for nCrisp a separate, complementary report to this one, focusing on a research agenda. Richard remained convinced that value was apowerful but poorly understood concept, and he has produced this report to demystify it. We are enormously grateful to Richard and his report is an appropriate testimony to his leadership both of Be and in the wider industry.
The report complements the work of other organisations such as the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment and the Office of Government Commerce to whom we are extremely grateful for their support and endorsement.
