ABSTRACT
Where the independent expert is required to assist and support a change process that relates to the best practice of the three standards, it would be logical to use the two key differentiators and six primary goals of best practice from the Construction Best Practice Programme booklet, A Guide to Best Practice in Construction Procurement, as the evaluative criteria of the selection process. The six goals would be especially effective in teasing out the relevant evidence and would ensure the independent expert really did have the depth and span of knowledge and experience that would enable him to adequately and constructively support the drive for improvement.
