Collaborating Organisations
CEEQUAL was an initiative of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) and its creation involved a great deal of collaboration with many relevant bodies. As we develop the Scheme, we continue to collaborate with a range of organisations. Here are details of some of them. We will add further details to this page as we can.

Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE)
The idea for CEEQUAL was born at a meeting of the ICE’s Environment & Sustainability Board in 1999 and the ICE supported CEEQUAL through the feasibility study and development stage via its Research & Development Enabling Fund.
The Institution is now one of CEEQUAL’s main shareholders and therefore a key partner in the Scheme. The Chairman of CEEQUAL’s Board is and has so far always been the ICE-nominated Director (currently Mr Eric Hughes) and all CEEQUAL certificates carry the ICE crest alongside the CEEQUAL logo and are signed not only by CEEQUAL’s Chairman but also by the ICE President.

Association for Consultancy and Engineering (ACE)
As the organisation representing the collective views and business interests of the consultancy and engineering industry in the UK, the ACE was one of the organisations represented on the Project Advisory Group during the development of the CEEQUAL assessment methodology and Manual.
ACE is the leading business association in the sector, with around 650 firms employing more than 90,000 large and small, operating across many different disciplines as its members. ACE’s representation and lobbying to government, major clients, the media and other key stakeholders, enables it to promote the critical contribution that engineers and consultants make to the nation’s developing infrastructure.
ACE are also shareholders in CEEQUAL and continue to support CEEQUAL’s progress.

American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
Since autumn 2009, CEEQUAL has been working with the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) to assist in the development of a US equivalent to CEEQUAL. In partnership with the American Public Works Association and the American Council of Engineering Companies, ASCE launched Version 1.0, for piloting, of a sustainable infrastructure project rating system at the ASCE Annual Conference in Las Vegas in October 2010.
Since then, the development of the system has be vested in a new organisation, the Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure. We look forward to continuing to assist ASCE and ISI in developing their system and to adding to the learning we have already gained from the experience that has been fed into the development of Version 5.
