What is a Demonstration
A project, organisation or initiative which:
Introduces innovation or best practice which improves performance for the organisations involved
Which adds to the industry ‘knowledge bank’
That is willing to benchmark and share learning
Meets a particular industry need

Demonstrations outperform!More predictability on cost and time Greater productivity than the industry average Three times safer Twice the impact on reducing the effect on the environment
Fewer defects at handover Higher customer satisfaction scores
Why become a Demonstration?

What works well
Having a keen and enthusiastic committeeUnique opportunity to network across the supply chain
Site visitsSupport from the region Speakers speaking the ‘language’ of the attendees
Social events
Examples of Successful Events
Question Time on Education in ConstructionBreakfast with Government MinisterDemonstration eventsVisit & Presentation on Sports Village Expert CDM presentationAnnual AwardsAnnual Ball
What doesn’t work
When key clients lose interestWhen the role of CE isn’t clearWhen too much reliance is placed on a very large project/client
When we don’t promote what we are doing
Looking to the Future
Build on the lessons to dateWe want our clubs to be :
The google/yellow pages for the industry A place where the barriers are broken down A knowledge bank for the industry Centres for learning how to work collaboratively A voice for SMEs
The Vision for the Welsh Clubs: To be the place where all members of the
construction team, irrespective of size can learn, share and network together
