Ethical Project Controls in Construction Management
This chapter predominantly is intended to make construction professionals aware of some of the governance requirements on their projects and to present some practical control mechanisms for regulatory adherence. It explains some of the processes around project approval and the importance of project/programme boards in this regard. In considering the approval processes for projects through the individual boards, it is commonplace for robust and financially rigorous business cases to be prepared to support business ventures. In some organisations, mostly public sector, there may be ‘gateway processes’ which require staged approval depending on the stage and development of projects. The main purpose of programme boards is to provide governance and transparency on projects, and avoiding the responsibility and accountability for decision making falling to one individual. For construction professionals, having robust decision‐making processes whilst ensuring governance procedures are maintained is fundamental; avoiding unnecessary delays whilst not infringing financial regulatory requirements.
