This document defines the minimum standard for project planning and project controls requirements. It is applicable to all projects being delivered for Capital Delivery on behalf of National Grid.

Audience: National Grid staff within Capital Delivery who are developing and delivering projects, e.g. OHLCS, MID, Development, LPT and any contractors responsible for the planning and delivery of those works.

This procedure and the accompanying document ATTACHMENT TO UKBP/TP 193 PROJECT CONTROLS REFERENCE GUIDE 193.1 will apply to all capital works. Where derogation to this procedure is agreed for the work to be completed these will be highlighted in the Works Information.
