Who will back Ray O'Rourke's vision for the industry's future?

摘要

It is interesting to see the tone used by Ray O'Rourke in his letter to customers announcing a £245m loss. This is not a statement honed by a PR team. Using the word 'humility' to describe the circumstances in which he is writing shows this either came from Mr O'Rourke's pen, or he had a heavy hand in writing it. Describing how Laing O'Rourke "regrettably" joined a race to the bottom amid the downturn was a frank admission. It has had difficulties with DfMA jobs in the UK. This year, the full weight of a disastrous Canadian hospital PFI is also a problem.
