Stakeholders of CoST
An essential feature of CoST is the engagement of a wide range of stakeholders that are typically linked to publicly financed construction projects:
- Procuring bodies;
- Public financial management bodies;
- Construction companies and associations
- Civil society- including professional organisations, non- governmental organisations and others; and
- External (i.e. non-governmental) providers of finance or loan guarantees.
The multistakeholder group that forms the key steering mechanism of CoST in each pilot country usually includes representatives from each of these groups.
