Philosophy: Code of Professional Ethics of the Construction Manager
We, as members of the Construction Management Association of America, make a commitment to conduct ourselves and our practice in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics of the Construction Manager.

As a professional engaged in the business of providing construction management services, and as a member of the CM profession, I agree to conduct myself, and my firm, in accordance with the following:

1. Client Service. We will serve our clients with honesty, integrity, competence, and objectivity, establishing a relationship of trust and confidence and furnishing our best skills and judgment consistent with the interests of our client.

2. Representation of Qualifications. We will only accept assignments for which we are qualified by our education, training, professional experience and technical competence, and we will assign staff to projects in accordance with their qualifications and commensurate with the services to be provided.

3. Standards of Practice. We will furnish our services in a manner consistent with the established and accepted standards of the profession and with the laws and regulations that govern its practice.

4. Fair Competition. We will build our professional reputation on the basis of our direct experience and service provided, and we will compete fairly and respectfully with our professional colleagues.

5. Conflicts of Interest. We will seek to avoid any and all conflicts of interest and will immediately acknowledge any influences and offer to withdraw from any assignment when any actual conflict exists which may impair our objectivity or integrity in the service of our clients.

6. Fair Compensation. We will negotiate fairly and openly with our clients in establishing a basis for compensation, and we will charge fees and expenses that are reasonable and commensurate with the services to be provided and the responsibilities and risks to be assumed.

7. Release of Information. We will release public statements that are truthful and objective, and we will keep information and records confidential when appropriate and protect the proprietary interests of our clients and professional colleagues.

8. Public Welfare. We will not participate in any racial, sexual or political discrimination related to any assignment we may undertake. We will avoid any conduct that would be considered unethical or will interfere or conflict with any laws, statutes or regulations, and we will uphold the safety, health and welfare of the public in the performance of our professional duties.

9. Professional Development. We will continue to develop our professional knowledge and competency as practitioners, and we will contribute to the advancement of CM practice as a profession by fostering research and education and through the encouragement of subordinates and fellow practitioners.

10. Integrity of the Profession. We will avoid actions that promote our own self-interest at the expense of the profession, and we will uphold the standards of the construction management profession with honor and dignity.
