Tool GFDRR

Building Regulation for Resilience

This tool promotes the enhancement of resilient, green, and inclusive built environments. It provides tools to support governments in assessing regulatory standards for construction and to identify gaps and opportunities for implementing climate resilience.[1]

Weather-Related Construction Delays in a Changing Climate: A Systematic State-of-the-Art Review (2021)

This report synthesises findings from 3,200+ construction studies, identifying extreme temperatures, precipitation, and high winds as the primary weather drivers of schedule delays, workforce productivity loss, and materials and equipment damage on construction sites. It provides the empirical foundation to justify climate risk preparedness in construction planning.[2]

Guidance ICSI

R4P Port Decision-Makers’ Guide to Climate Risk Assessments (2025)

This guide bridges the gap between risk assessment and construction specification, offering port-specific resilience options (Table 6.1) including heat-resistant material requirements and digital infrastructure adaptation measures (Box 2.2), making it an actionable port resource for practitioners defining Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QC/QA) requirements.[3]

Guidance European Commission

Technical guidance on the climate proofing of infrastructure in the period 2021–2027 (2021)

This guidance integrates climate proofing with project cycle management, environmental impact assessments (EIA), and strategic environmental assessments (SEA) processes. It serves as a mandatory compliance framework for any infrastructure project seeking EU funding (InvestEU, CEF, ERDF, Cohesion Fund).[4]

Guidance UNEP

A Practical Guide to Climate-Resilient Buildings & Communities (2021)

This guide provides an overview of fundamental types of resilience interventions at the building scale with specific approaches for building envelope, roof, structure, orientation, and materials. Although tailored toward a developing country context, the majority of techniques can be upscaled and applied to any context.[5]

Climate Toolkit for Infrastructure PPPs (CTIP3)

This step-by-step guide incorporates climate considerations into PPP projects, including ready-to-use tables, figures, and example KPIs. It contains guidance on bid evaluation frameworks and climate requirements for procurement.[6]

Guidance IDB

Climate-resilient PPP Toolkit: A Toolkit for Decision-Makers

This toolkit covers the full procurement sequence from RFQ to contract, providing climate risk criteria for pre-qualification, RFP decision-making frameworks, performance indicator integration, disaster risk management plan templates, bid evaluation structures, and PPP payment mechanism design.[7]

Guidance ICSI

Port Decision Makers’ Guide to Climate Risk Assessment

This port-specific, practitioner-oriented guide covers climate risk assessments aligned with ISO 14090/14901. It provides a procurement scoping checklist in Annex A and specifies RFQ selection criteria for technical partners.[8]

Guidance GCA

Climate Resilient Infrastructure Handbook

This handbook covers climate resilience across the infrastructure life cycle. It is useful for practitioners designing post-award contract management frameworks, including monitoring and evaluating climate-resilient performance requirements.[9]

Framework ISO 20400:2017

Sustainable Procurement Guidance

This international standard provides principles and process guidance for sustainable procurement, covering risk prioritisation, supplier engagement, evaluation criteria design, and dispute resolution mechanisms.[10]
