Contractor remains triumphant in annual league as its other pole position is snatched by HBG's strong month
Bovis Lend Lease still dominates the annual contractors' table. However, it is conspicuously absent from November's monthly league 鈥� despite being top last month 鈥� leaving HBG Construction to usurp prime position, writes Kate Gleeson.

HBG has climbed three places to the top spot, thanks to a 拢25m college teaching facilities project in Birmingham and a 拢19m office development in Edinburgh.

The Birmingham contract has also helped Davis Langdon & Everest keep its lead in the quantity surveyor's league.

Close behind HBG in the monthly contractors' chart is Laing O'Rourke, with a 拢35m mixed-use scheme in Newcastle and a 拢15m residential development in Plymouth.

The firm's slew of contracts worth 拢57.8m also catapulted it from nowhere to number five in the annual chart this month.
