Product Description
What is it that keeps professionals in the AEC industry up at night if it is not their ability to design and build good buildings? It's their never-ending search for a competitive advantage - their ability, on a daily basis, to effectively compete for new work. The main concern of the millions of companies, large and small, engaged in creating the built environment across the world is their capacity to not only survive, but to also thrive, at a time when the global economy is dauntingly complex, constantly changing, and overwhelmingly competitive.
Drawing on a three-year research project conducted by the Rice University Building Institute, Joe M. Powell incorporates the experience and wisdom of over 80 international market leaders.
This book answers the following two questions:
1. What are the critical performance characteristics of the world's most competitive companies?
2. What will be required to join the next generation of global market leaders?
Order your copy today and discover the answers.

Good Book June 23, 2008
Most books on management can be pretty well understood by reading the first chapter. So often the subsequent chapters just embelish the concept and can be skipped. But this book keeps going with practical insights that will help leaders in our industry get and keep good people and get and keep good clients.
A seminal book June 11, 2008
"The new book The New Competitiveness in Design & Construction is seminal. The writing style is entertaining while keeping the content first rate. I'm actually shocked that an architect could write such a book!" James Auld, Vice President, Morganti Construction Management
