An innovation of which the project has boasted has been to place all the construction contractors in one big open-plan office located at the construction site. Whereas under other arrangements, conflicts between different contractors might lead to solicitors’ letters or to legal injunctions, they can be resolved under these arrangements through encounters between people sitting at adjacent desks. The fact that such an arrangement has been described as a novelty is an indication of the state that has been reached in many of our infrastructure projects.
