	CAPRiM was established in May 1993 as a successor to the Economic League, which had held the construction industry's blacklist but which had been wound up in 1993 after a parliamentary enquiry and bad press. It provided continued employment for two former League directors, Jack Winder and Stan Hardy. Construction company Sir Robert McAlpine Ltd invested £10,000 in founding CAPRiM, on the understanding that they would not interfere with The Consulting Association.
