A civil engineering ''process'' is an ordered pattern of work and decisions that transforms inputs (information, materials, resources) into outputs (designs, built assets, approvals, operational performance).<br />
<br />
== Process concept model vs process approach model ==<br />
Two complementary views are useful:<br />
<br />
;Process concept model<br />
: a model of a process ''without respect to execution'', used to describe and communicate civil engineering knowledge.<br />
<br />
;Process approach model<br />
: a model of a process ''with respect to execution'', used to describe work, controls, and communication needs.<br />
<br />
== Why process models matter ==<br />
Process models support:<br />
* coordination among stakeholders and disciplines,<br />
* repeatability and learning,<br />
* identification of where uncertainty enters and where control is most effective,<br />
* clearer definition of responsibilities and interfaces.<br />
<br />
== Families of processes ==<br />
Common families include:<br />
* Technical processes: investigation, analysis, design, verification, construction methods, commissioning.<br />
* Management processes: planning, scheduling, budgeting, risk management, quality management, procurement, communications.<br />
* Governance processes: permitting, regulatory review, public engagement, dispute resolution.<br />
