−	The Office of Government Commerce (OGC) has established a detailed gateway review process for public procurement. The [http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20100503135839/http://www.ogc.gov.uk/what_is_ogc_gateway_review.asp OGC gateway review process] offers a structure for assessing programmes and projects at key stages in their development to verify that they should be allowed to progress to the next stage. Gateway reviews are independent peer reviews carried out by a review team on behalf of the senior responsible owner. The review team prepare a confidential review report for the ~~senior responsible owner. Gateway reports, will normally be shared with HM Treasury~~ and the Cabinet Office.	+	The Office of Government Commerce (OGC) has now been absorbed into the Efficiency and Reform Group (ERG) within the Cabinet Office.

The OGC gateway review process still provides one of the best and most comprehensive sets of guidance for public projects. It is for this reason that the project plan for public projects within Designing Buildings Wiki follows the OGC gateway review process. See Public project: outline work plan.

−	~~There are 6 gateway reviews during~~ the ~~development of a programme or project~~ (~~generally a project evolves out of a programme~~):	+	The procurement routes preferred by the Government Construction Strategy and described by the OGC gateway review process are private finance initiative (PFI), prime contracting and design and build (see OGC [http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20100503135839/http://www.ogc.gov.uk/documents/CP0066AEGuide6.pdf Achieving Excellence Guide 6:Procurement and contract strategies]). The Government Construction Strategy states that traditional procurement routes that separate design from construction should not be used unless it can be demonstrated that they offer better value for money.

−	*OGC gateway review 0: strategic assessment.	+	The three preferred routes involve appointing a single integrated supply team (including designers, contractors, suppliers and perhaps facilities managers) after the project brief has been prepared, before design commences. This means that the main decision to invest (i.e. to appoint the integrated supply team), takes place before any designs have been prepared.
