Quality in Construction Design Best Practice Tool

Quality in Construction Design Best Practice Tool is a questionnaire-based measurement system that can be applied to any project to enable clients and project teams to better measure, control and monitor the quality of design in the early project stages.

The tool is intended only for use during the concept design and developed design stages of a project (design stages 1-4). It does not cover production design, delivery, handover or facilities management. It is structured in three parts, establishing design ‘gateways’, and operates on a self-assessment basis, measuring maturity as the extent to which the project aligns with best-practice principles, on a percentage scale.
