I am delighted to launch our 2nd event magazine and I believe that it will provide you with some instructive, philosophical and inspirational content.

No one could argue that we are in the midst of a changing landscape.

There is no doubt that the industry has shifted in the last 6 months post the global financial crisis and the release of the Evans and Peck / Department of Treasury and Finance report on the pursuit of additional value.

In addition, there are some interesting emergent trends in the marketplace. In the last 6-8 months there have arisen a plethora of hybrid alliances that have moved away from pure and more traditional alliance processes, and there has also been a sharp increase in the focus on competitive pricing (and a correlating rise in the number of competitive TOCs emerging).

I am sure these significant trends will be the basis for much discussion and this magazine seeks to support that discussion.

Alliance contracting is a project delivery method that lends itself to passion and creativity due to the nature of the team relationships that form the core of a project’s success. We hope that the passion we have for this subject and the creativity we have injected into the magazine will enable you to engage in thought provoking conversations and networking with your peers as well as learning and improvement in the areas you are currently driven to address.
