About CPIc archive
This microsite has been created as an archive of the work of the Construction Project Information Committee (CPIc).
The CPIc website will be closed and this microsite will remain as a lasting historical record in its place. It will allow users to understand the work of CPIc, and to access its resources and publications.
Some resources are currently unavailable. We are currently trying to find copies of those resources, and they will be added to this archive over time.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those people that served on the CPIc and contributed to its work over many years, helping to improve project information management.
About CPIc
CPIc was the Construction Project Information Committee, responsible for providing best practice guidance on the content, form and preparation of construction production information (CPI), and making sure this best practice was disseminated throughout the UK construction industry.
The Committee was formed from representatives of the major industry institutions which ensured that the guidance provided had a solid foundation within all branches of the industry including:
- The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA)
- The Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS)
- The Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE)
- Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT)
- The Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE)
- The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB)
- The UK Contractors Group (UKCG)
- Landscape Institute (LI)
CPIc promoted the quality of design information and collaboration in the design process.
CPIc authored and managed the Uniclass2 classification system, which formed a core part of the UK government’s PAS1192:2 document. See Uniclass 2015 for latest information and guidance on classification.
CPIc provided guidance on all aspects of project information management including life cycle costing and sustainability.
The work of CPIc has been recognised by Egan and Latham and members of CPIc were key contributors to BS1192.
