Innovation drives progress in construction but evaluating capability has always been a challenge. impACT is a digital platform designed to transform the way you measure, benchmark, and adopt innovation.
The goal is simple: to give construction firms, a transparent, consistent, and industry-aligned assessment system that helps turn innovation into real impact.
About the Project
Born from pioneering and globally recognised work from the IKE Institute, impACT delivers a robust innovation assessment platform tailored specifically for the construction and built environment sector, leveraging the Investor in Innovations (IÂł) Standard, aligned with ISO 56000 series guidance.
impACT empowers businesses to evaluate strengths, uncover opportunities, and unlock transformational growth through action.
The impACT platform provides:
- 360° Innovation Review: Insights across all part of business operations.

Our Partners
impACT has been shaped by collaboration across a spectrum of innovators—from academic institutions to leading industry players:
- City of Glasgow College: Scotland’s largest technological and professional skills college, and a pioneer in college innovation, as hosts of the Scottish Institute of Innovation & Knowledge Exchange (Scottish IKE).
- IKE Institute: The UK’s professional body for innovators, leading policy, strategy and the professionalisation of innovation.
- Robertson Group: One of the largest family-owned construction, infrastructure and support service businesses in the UK. Their capabilities and size haven’t distracted the focus on their purpose: to assure a sustainable future.
