11. Aims
    This module aims to provide the opportunity to develop projects, inquiries and/or other
    work-based activities that are designed to improve or inform areas of your own or
    others’ work/practice.
    This module enables the Quantity Surveyor/ Commercial Manager to conduct a
    programme of research and to further develop understanding and skills in managing
    research data and site information to inform his/her management practice. This large
    project is also the vehicle to demonstrate a holistic approach to incorporating all the
    knowledge gained so far as well as client care, communication and negotiation skills
    across the team and with all stakeholders. Explicit evidence of managing a Quantity
    Surveying/ Commercial Management project within health and safety and
    sustainability requirements will be gathered during this project.
