	Uniclass was created in 1997 by the Construction Project Information Committee (CPIC), a pan-industry organisation with representatives from key industry institutes. However, early versions were criticised for not being genuinely unified, for inconsistencies between the labelling and depth of tables, for poor integration of civil engineering and building works and for being an essentially paper-based system.
