4.1 Commitment
Those seeking to do business with the Queensland Government and those working on Government projects must demonstrate a commitment to the Key Priorities and Objectives of the Code. This is essential if the industry is to maintain and enhance its influential position in the Queensland economy.
In the context of a building and construction industry enterprise, best practice embraces superior:
- business relationships and practices;
- organisational systems and standards;
- workforce-management policies and practices;
- time, cost and quality outcomes.
Commitment to continuous improvement and best practice will be tested and measured using criteria that reflect these qualities. Such criteria have been incorporated into the Queensland Government’s prequalification systems. Incentives may be provided for enterprises that demonstrate superior performance including, for example, more opportunities for work and longer-term relationships. In their dealings with industry, Government agencies are expected to encourage the attainment of best practice by all parties.
