The final report on Grenfell has been released. It is 1700 pages, 7 Volumes - representing the scale of negligence and failure to deliver as an industry.   It was difficult to read the conclusions, and to see the amount of mistakes committed by several different professions that eventually led to the death of 72 people of which 18 were children.   As construction professionals, we are responsible for people's wellbeing and safety by designing, curating and building the structures they occupy. If we don’t consider every aspect and every detail - people will be impacted. People could die and people have died.   To summarise a very thorough and extensively considered report:   ·  The government failed to provide suitable guidance to compliance through building regulations and lack of a focused department ·  The contractors failed us by not ensuring compliance on site ·  Building control failed to audit and be objective ·  The manufacturers of materials lied about their performance and testing ·  Architects and engineers didn’t consider or question what they were specifying This is not the end of the list - sadly there's more failure and improvements to make. This was all avoidable. All due to lack of sufficient thought and care. We need to do better.   What now? Where do we go from here? What happens to Grenfell?   I urge everyone in the construction industry to read as much of the report as possible. And to question every standard they work to and absolutely always aim for better. https://lnkd.in/eAVuknbt #buildingsafety #construction #builtenvironment #standards #regulations
