Bovis Lend Lease is an international construction management company and subsidiary of Lend Lease Corporation. It was formed in 1999 by the merger of Bovis Construction, formerly part of the P&O group[3] with Lend Lease Projects.
The company has managed construction projects worldwide, including retail developments and airport terminals.[4]
In 2006 Bovis Lend Lease were awarded the contract to construct the World Trade Center Memorial and museum at Ground Zero in New York.[5]
In 2008, the company and a subcontractor were charged with numerous safety violations after a fire broke out at the Deutsche Bank Building, a skyscraper being demolished in Manhattan, which killed two firefighters. [6]
