CIRIA is the construction industry research and information association. Operating across market sectors and disciplines we deliver a programme of business improvement services and research activities for our members, and those engaged with the delivery and operation of the built environment.

CIRIA is an independent member based, not-for-profit association. Members include commercial companies, universities, Government departments, and other public sector agencies and organisations. Representatives are from all parts of the supply chain of the modern built environment, covering building and civil engineering as well as transport and utilities infrastructure.

CIRIA’s primary aims are to improve the quality, efficiency, cost-effectiveness and safety in both the provision and operation of the modern built environment. In pursuit of these aims, CIRIA seeks to be the leading provider of improvement products and services to organisations involved in procuring, delivering, owning and maintaining the fabric of the modern built environment.

Buildoffsite is managed by CIRIA.
