Abstract
Pre-project planning has a significant impact on the outcome of a construction project. CII assembled task force #39 to study pre-project planning in the construction of capital facilities. This source document presents a model that is the culmination of the first objective in athree-phased research project. The three task force objectives are: 1) Model the pre-project planning process for the construction of capital facilities and develop a glossary of planning terms; 2) Evaluate the relationship between project success and the level of pre-project planning effort; and 3) Develop a handbook identifying the best pre-project planning practices.
