Dealing with construction permits: Quality control before construction index (0-1) (DB16-20 methodology) — every country, all years (World Bank)

The quality control before construction index evaluates quality control in the review of the building plans. The index measures whether by law, a licensed architect or engineer is part of the committee or team that reviews and approves building permit applications and whether that person has the authority to refuse an application if the plans are not in conformity with regulations. The index is computed based on the methodology in the DB16-20 studies. Every country, region and year the World Bank publishes for indicator IC.CNST.PRMT.QCBC.XD.01.DB1619 (Doing Business), delivered as a tidy table — country, ISO code, year and value — ready for analysis in Excel, R, Python or the Intigal AI workspace.
