About this book

The latest edition of the gold standard in construction project management references

The newly revised sixth edition of the Code of Practice for Project Management for the Built Environment, prepared by the Chartered Institute of Building, is an up-to-date and comprehensive reference covering the principles and practice of project management in construction and development. This latest edition covers the new technologies, internationalisation, changing legislation, and productivity and profitability challenges faced by contractors which all combine to drive significant change in the industry.

The book demonstrates the application of systematic documentation and quality control to complex construction projects and offers guidance and tools that link key principles to practical project management. It is worldwide in scope and widely recognised as the industry standard on the subject.

With fresh discussions of quality assurance, global codes and standards, time management, joint ventures, contract compliance, supply chain integration, design digitisation, and much more, the Code of Practice for Project Management for the Built Environment also includes:

  • A thorough introduction to project inception, feasibility analysis, strategy, and the pre-construction process
  • Comprehensive explorations of the construction stage of projects, as well as testing and commissioning, and project completion, handover, and operation
  • Practical discussions of post-completion review
  • A glossary and index of essential terms in construction project management

Perfect for project management professionals in construction contracting and client organisations, Code of Practice for Project Management for the Built Environment will also earn a place in the libraries of undergraduate and postgraduate students of project management and construction-related subjects.

The Chartered Institute of Building is the world's largest professional body for construction management and leadership. It has a Royal Charter to promote the science and practice of building and construction for the benefit of society.
