From the Back Cover

The Code of Practice for Project Management embodies the results of intensive consultation between the CIOB and representatives of the chief professional bodies concerned with construction and development, including the-
British Property Federation
Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors
Royal Institute of British Architects
Institution of Civil Engineers
Institution of Structural Engineers
Association of Project Managers
Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers
Accepting the need to define the role of project manager and the function of project management more clearly, the Code represents a cohesive initiative to formulate guidelines and recommended working practices covering the supervision of a development project - no matter how large or complex - from inception through all its stages to the client's occupation of the completed facility.
The Code is structured to reflect the stage-by-stage process associated with development projects. These stages include-

Inception
Feasibility
Strategy
Pre-construction
Construction and fitting out
Engineering services commissioning
Completion and handover
Client commissioning and occupation
Post-completion review
The Code of Practice is a key reference source for all managers of building and construction projects and professional consultants. It is also a vital source of information for those involved in tertiary education, and is of great use to clients wishing to understand construction project management.
