Abstract

Design documentation assessment of compliance to technical regulations and building codes requirements in the Russian Federation is carried out through the institution of construction expertise. Elaboration and expert examinations of design documents and the results of engineering surveys are some of the most important stages in the implementation of investment and construction projects, as they allow reducing technical, legal and financial risks of the construction manager. This activity is important for all participants in investment and construction activities, which makes it necessary to study the construction expertise institution in order to determine its main development directions. The article presents the internal and external environment analysis results of construction expertise institution in the Russian Federation. Strategic tools made it possible to identify strengths and weaknesses, threats and opportunities, to determine the main strategic development directions for the institution of construction expertise in the Russian Federation, in accordance with the Draft Strategy for construction industry development in the Russian Federation until 2030.
