Code of Practice for Programme Management in the Built Environment
CODE OF PRACTICE FOR PROGRAMME MANAGEMENT IN THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT Manage a construction programme from start to finish with this up-to-date guide The maturation and proliferation of project management principles has been one of the most important stories in recent business history. So widely has project management spread throughout the corporate world that it has now given way to a similar discipline, programme management, designed to align, coordinate and manage a number of related projects as a whole. In the construction industry particularly, programme management can deliver benefits that would not have been possible to realise had individual projects been managed independently. Produced by the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), the revised Code of Practice for Programme Management in the Built Environment provides a comprehensive overview of the tools required to deliver such benefits, and how they are applied in construction programmes. A natural complement to the CIOB's popular Code of Practice for Project Management for the Built Environment, it is now fully updated to reflect new insights and best practices. Readers of the second edition of Code of Practice for Programme Management in the Built Environment will find: * Theoretical and practical insights derived from research and experience * Coverage of setting up programmes successfully so that teams feel confident to deliver the final outcome * Guidelines for implementing programme management for the built environment Code of Practice for Programme Management in the Built Environment is ideal for programme management and project management professionals involved in this industry and in particular, contractors and client organisations, as well as for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in construction project management and other related disciplines. The Chartered Institute of Building is the world's largest professional body for construction management and leadership. It has a Royal Charter to promote the science and practice of building and construction for the benefit of society. Members across the world work in the development, conservation, and improvement of the built environment. [192 Pages, Softcover]
