The second CIC essential principles guide supports guides and motivates clients, developers and contractors to achieve high standards of access and inclusion in all their projects.

It sets out six guiding principles that can be applied from project inception and strategic definition, through preparation and brief, procurement and tender processes to appraisal of final outcomes.

The aim is that those who own and pay for development take responsibility for achieving an inclusive development process.
