PCAB INTEGRITY PLEDGE
We believe that the construction industry is one of the most susceptible to all forms of corruption that hampers the
noble objectives towards national progress and global competitiveness.
As frontrunners of nation-building, we acknowledge our major role and responsibility in ensuring that we carry out
our tasks guided by ethical standards and equipped with the necessary capability for the successful prosecution of
our contracts.
In view thereof, we pledge the following:


We will present only true qualifications to PCAB so that we may be evaluated properly and be given the
category and classification where we should rightfully belong;



We will uphold the dignity of the license and not be instruments for unlicensed contractors to undertake
construction projects through license lending nor through false joint ventures/consortium or pseudo
combinations which is inimical to the public safety/interest;



We will not employ unlicensed sub-contractors/specialty contractors which is a clear circumvention of the
requirement that all contractors must be licensed;



We will absolutely shun away from any form of collusion that destroys the very essence and integrity of
biddings;



We will not engage in bribery or do any act which constitutes graft or corrupt practice which is the root
cause of bloated contract amounts;



We will not use sub-standard materials which will in any way compromise the safety, reliability and
performance of the built environment;



We will not abandon our contracts and we will implement our projects faithfully in accordance with the
prescribed specifications thereof;



We will provide the necessary resources, financial and technical capability in carrying out our contractual
obligations, and as far as possible, within the stipulated time of completion;



We are aware that we will be imposed disciplinary action should we violate any of the commitments hereof
or the PCAB Code of Ethics or be found to be a party to corruption.
