Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works Adam R. Telle announced a major initiative, “Building Infrastructure, Not Paperwork,” for the Army’s Civil Works program. “Building Infrastructure, Not Paperwork” will provide greater focus on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) core Civil Works missions while minimizing non-core programs, direct funding to priority water resources projects that will provide the greatest benefits to the nation, shorten permitting timelines, and reduce or eliminate extraneous regulations and paperwork that slow USACE’s delivery of Civil Works projects and programs.

CIVIL engineering product manufacturer  Wrekin , alongside its subdivision  Geoworks , has recorded significant growth despite a punishing year for the overall construction market – resulting in more than one million product sales in 2025. As UK housebuilding declined by around 8% against a backdrop of high interest rates and inflation, Wrekin’s turnover grew by 12%. This growth was underlined by a series of major deals with utilities companies, as new and renewed frameworks were secured with BT, Severn Trent Water and Thames Water. The Lichfield-based business’ turnover from its water, telecoms and energy offerings grew markedly. The success of the past 12 months was fuelled by a workforce which expanded in both its size and productivity.

Meanwhile 13 new staff members were employed across Wrekin and Geoworks, significantly increasing capacity. Simon Turne...
