Project Assessment Framework

The GoodCorporation Project Assessment Framework helps organisations to evaluate how well ethical business practices are being applied within and throughout major construction, infrastructure and development projects. The principles cover the key elements of good project management including clear governance, procurement practices, labour standards, community relations, government and regulatory relationships and environmental protection.

This framework aligns with the IFC Performance Standards, BII’s Policy on Responsible Investing and EBRD’s Environmental and Social Policy. The framework can be tailored to the specifics of the project. It can be used to assess and manage project contributors as well as to demonstrate to funders that good practices are in place.
