Opportunities for building surveyors in Poland

Abstract

Outlines the opportunities for building surveyors in Poland as discovered by the Bureau of European Building Consultants and Experts (BEBCE) on their visit to Warsaw in 1991. Discusses the new Poland in the light of recent building contracts, the pace of change in the Warsaw economy, modernization of domestic housing and political change. Explores aspects of maintenance and refurbishment, offering examples from site visits undertaken to a block of flats and a housing estate. Examines the need for greater management skills which could be filled by British specialists and suggests the potential for increased expansion in the future.
