Established in 2001 and headquarteredat Queensland University of Technology as an unincorporated joint venture under the Australian Government’sCooperative Research Program, Construction Innovation is developing key technologies, tools and managementsystems to improve the effectiveness of the construction industry. Construction Innovation is a seven-year projectfunded by a Commonwealth grant, and industry, research and other government support. More that 300 individualsand an alliance of 21 leading partner organisations are involved in and support the activities of this CRC.There are three research areas:Program A — Business and Industry DevelopmentProgram B — Sustainable Built AssetsProgram C — Delivery and Management of Built Assets.Underpinning these research programs is an Information Communication Technology (ICT) Platform.Each project involves at least two industry partners and two research partners to ensure that collaboration andindustry focus is optimised throughout the research and implementation phases. The complementary blendof industry partners ensures a real-life environment whereby research can be easily tested and results quicklydisseminated.v
