The CIOB Client Guide
[edit] Leading Projects in the Built Environment
Being a construction client isn’t just about creating the right building for the right price within the right timeframe. It is also an opportunity to solve some of the biggest economic, ethical and ecological problems we face today.
Construction clients play a pivotal role in our collective efforts to raise standards, improve collaborative working, encourage innovation and push towards net zero.
The CIOB Client Guide: Leading Projects in the Built Environment explains how projects are generally structured and managed, and what to look out for along the way, empowering clients with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. It is aimed primarily at construction clients tasked with running larger projects but the principles apply to all clients regardless of project size.
It will be particularly useful if you are new to the process as it will help you to get the building blocks right from the start.
Drawing on CIOB members’ experience, the focus is on best practices and guidance that can be applied within the commercial and regulatory context to improve outcomes and create more value.
