Zer0_128_Zero
A proposal for embedding sustainability into government delivery at the point it is actually decided: tender, procurement and contract. AI makes the metrics live rather than retrospective, so a sustainability position becomes a condition of award instead of a report filed after handover.
Construction Forum · 2019
