The Construction Employers Federation (CEF) has announced a new partnership with BDO Northern Ireland.
The partnership will put specialist tax and business planning support within reach of more than 800 building companies.
It will see CEF's membership, ranging from micro-businesses to industry heavy hitters, gain access to a series of specialist advice services and tailored workshops over the next ten months.
John Armstrong, Managing Director of the CEF, said: "As a forward-thinking and innovative sector, our members in the construction industry have always taken a strategic and partner-led approach, which is why we are delighted that BDO Northern Ireland has joined us as an official Patron of the Federation and for their commitment to assist in driving renewed growth and success over the years ahead through the business critical advice and support that they can offer.
"Our objective is to deliver one shared 'voice of the construction industry' to ensure that our work delivers for our people, our members and the wider economy and are excited to have the backing of BDO Northern Ireland for the future."
Brian Murphy, Partner at BDO Northern Ireland said: "A thriving construction sector is not only good, but essential for the whole economy. Confidence has been slow to return, but we're now seeing progress on the skylines with a number of landmark developments, residential properties and hotels nearing completion across the Province. It's important that construction companies of all sizes across Northern Ireland maintain this momentum and continue to grow smartly and sustainably."
