Barbour ABI<\/a> for another two years.<\/p>\nLiverpool-based firm currently provides the ONS with construction data. The firm was awarded the contract following a formal tender process in 2013 and was tasked with researching and reporting on all construction projects across the UK.<\/p>\n
The firm has a team of research specialists, as well as a dedicated lead economist. The data is used to provide information on trends and developments within the sector.<\/p>\n
The news that it will continue to provide this data to the UK\u2019s largest statistics organisation will undoubtedly be a boost for the firm.<\/p>\n
Barbour ABI\u2019s Director Simon Mahoney said: \u201cThe on-going partnership between ourselves and the ONS is a significant one, given its statistics play a vital role in helping many businesses plan for the future.<\/p>\n
“We\u2019re well equipped to provide a high level of service in researching and gathering data from within the construction industry and are delighted that the ONS want to continue with our service, after a successful two years working together.\u201d<\/p>\n
ONS Head of Retail Sales Index and Construction Kate Davies also commented, stating: \u201cONS\u2019s ongoing partnership with Barbour ABI has enabled us to improve the quality and comparability of our new orders data, ensuring we continue to deliver high quality statistics, which allow our users to make the best possible decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n
