Shape Construction’s Field-First Platform Advances UK Project Delivery

Major programs have entered an era of unprecedented investment, unmatched scale and uncommon complexity. Today, there are over 11,000 mega and 250 giga-projects and programs in delivery across the world. Just this group of programs -categorized as having a value of more than $1 billion and $10 billion respectively represent more than $15 trillion in capital investment. However, despite this momentum, the industry continues to grapple with persistent challenges to delivery, with associated cost overruns, schedule delays, and under-realized benefits remaining the norm rather than the exception. Failure to get on top of these challenges puts at risk more than $1.5 trillion of economic growth by 2030.

This year, the prestigious Global/UK Project Controls Expo Awards have officially launched their search for projects, programmes and individuals who have delivered groundbreaking achievements in the last 12 months. The call for submissions is now open until 12th June, with the winners to be announced at an official ceremony at the iconic Wembley Stadium, on Tuesday 4th November 2025.
