Who does the standard apply to and why should you comment?
Throughout the development of a design proposal, different individuals will have responsibility for and will take the lead in the management of design – that is planning and ensuring that all relevant parties are appointed, present and that their contributions are aligned to the Client’s and project requirements, are timely and coordinated. Who leads the management of design changes from stage to stage and in accordance to the project set up and discipline / area of the industry that the design if being carried out in.
We are keen for this standard to be relevant and applicable to all who manage design across all design stages and built environment frameworks.
If you are an architect, a project manager, a design manager, lead consultants and/or manage design under any other title, please read, comment and help us make this update useful to all.
