The Mega Project Assurance Series provides effective tools, guidance and instruction for professional accounting, audit, construction, design, engineering, finance, infrastructure, legal, project management and operations practitioners. The purpose of this series is to outline how project assurance professionals mitigate risk, disputes, and generate cost recovery — real results. The material contained in this series is field tested under actual conditions, on publicly and privately funded mega projects. However, it should be noted that each mega project is unique. Each has its own unique system, time, resources, people, organization, language, design, geography, culture, politics, and economic constraints. This series is designed to accommodate the practitioner's needs and their actual conditions.

Volume One addresses the terminology used throughout the Mega Project Assurance Series and is a useful reference for practicing professionals and students. The content is broken down into three sections: Project Accounting & Audit; Project Finance, and Construction & Technology.
