This chapter has examined the scheme investment procedure, which is the tier 1 and highest level (umbrella) document in a power network construction QMS suite of procedures. The objective of the procedure is to obtain an optimum design and cost effective solution that satisfies the need case. This in turn requires a relatively complex process that must take into account a very significant number of considerations. Those who lead, and have responsibilities within, this process must be well versed and competent in the requirements, since the decisions made have a profound impact on the integrity of the power system and the financial wellbeing of the companies involved.
