Mark Robinson, CEO at Scape Group, has called for mandated margins on public sector work.
He said: 鈥淚 think that margins should be set across the industry particularly on public sector projects.
鈥淲hy don鈥檛 we agree on a 5% margin on every project? Every contractor will know they are going to get a 5% margin, they can invest in the resources and the teams and then they can make sure the projects are delivered on time and on budget.
鈥淚t also means they can focus on quality not on trying to claim back money, which they spend thousands of pounds on.鈥�
But is he right? Vote in this week鈥檚 online poll and share.
