GUILD UPDATE:  some important Guild of Project Controls News

The Guild standards - our version of a complete reference guide to PROJECT CONTROLS has for many weeks been available to download in its entirety providing the user is a registered Guild or PP member. We did this fundamentally to repay PP members for their loyalty to the cause and their help. 

Of course, The Standards (we need to come back to this later) were a MAJOR effort and are a Guild asset.

A fact is though that standards have to form part of The Guild offering so at the end of March access to the (possibly updated as they are a document in progress) standards will only be to Guild Members as part of their membership package.
