Building regulatory capacity assessment: Level 2 - Detailed exploration
The Building Regulatory Capacity Assessment was developed to help cities and project managers working with development agencies to implement to assess building and land use regulatory systems, and facilitate the collection of critical information about the building regulatory framework in any given city or country. This assessment tool offers an effective resource for interventions within a wide range of urban development initiatives in cities of low and middle-income countries.
This "Level 2 - Detailed Exploration" is the second of two components to the Building Regulatory Capacity Assessment and provides a set of guidelines for team members and contractors who are tasked with gathering and analyzing data and information about the building regulatory capacity of the target country, region or municipality. It is preceeded by the “Level 1 - Initial Screening” component, which was designed for government officials and project managers undertaking rapid preliminary assessments.
Overall, the Assessment identifies critical gaps, it provides the necessary information to develop a baseline for formulating technical assistance to clients, as well as drawing findings that can be used to determine areas for improvement and investment.
