3.1.3 The Generic <strong>Design</strong> and Construction <strong>Process</strong> Protocol<br />

The Generic <strong>Design</strong> and Construction <strong>Process</strong> Protocol (GDCPP)<br />

developed at the <strong>University</strong> of Salford is a high level map defining the<br />

process in terms of activity zones. The zones contain high-level<br />

processes spanning the duration of a project from inception to operation<br />

and maintenance. The process protocol also consists of deliverables in<br />

a form of documented project information such as stakeholder list, brief,<br />

etc. and logical dependencies between activities which are shown by<br />

interconnecting arrows.<br />

The GDCCP breaks down the design and construction processes into<br />

eight activity zones namely, development, project, resource, design,<br />

production, facilities, health and safety, and process management, four<br />

broad stages –pre-project, pre-construction, construction, and post-<br />

construction–, and ten phases. The stage/gate approach to process<br />

management practiced in manufacturing industry was used to develop
