This book contains a number of check lists which I have written, used, and collected over many years. Some of the check lists included are ones that I have used in conjunction with consultants and other 3rd parties employed by the companies where have worked. My thanks are due, not only to my own staff, who have worked with me and contributed and added to my lists, but also those consultant firms employed by our firms, who have been kind enough to give me access to documentation that has been used on our projects. My thanks also goes to my wife, Elena Nikolaeva, without whose support, editorial help and understanding, this book would never have been written. As is usual with this type of document, as I have used these check list on successive projects, the lists have been amended and added to, based on our user experience. So - many thanks to all of the above personnel and please send me your additions and suggestions for inclusion on any future issues of this book.
