Our editorial principles

Experience

Every author has worked on real projects and writes from direct industry experience, not desk research.

Expertise

Contributors hold recognized qualifications: quantity surveyors, program directors, project controls leads, and program managers from leading firms globally.

Authoritativeness

Mastt is built by people who came from the industry, not a generic content publisher. Our content reflects how project management actually works.

Trustworthiness

Every author is named and verifiable. Sources are cited, the process is documented here, and errors are corrected when found.

The people behind every article

Two layers of expertise on every piece we publish

Content is reviewed by both external practitioners and Mastt's internal team, people who understand the industry from working in or alongside it.

External Industry Experts

External contributors are vetted for credentials and direct industry experience. They write only about topics they have personally worked on.

Mastt Internal Team

Mastt was founded by people who came from the industry. Team members who contribute bring direct experience, so every article is reviewed by someone who understands the context.

How we produce content

The editorial process, step by step

Every article goes through all six steps before publication, no exceptions.

1

Topic selection with a qualified expert in mind

Topics are chosen based on what capital project professionals genuinely need. We only commission articles where a qualified practitioner is available to author or review the content. No topic proceeds without the right expertise attached.

2

Expert authorship with first-hand experience

Every article is attributed to a named professional with first-hand experience on the topic. Contributors either write from a brief or review and approve a draft before their name goes on it. Either way, the credited author is responsible for the content.

3

Fact-checking against primary sources

Every statistic, benchmark, and technical assertion is verified against a primary source before publication. Accepted sources include RICS, PMI, AIPM, Infrastructure Australia, government agencies, and peer-reviewed research.

4

Technical accuracy review by Mastt's team

A Mastt team member with direct industry experience reviews every article for technical accuracy before it goes live. This covers whether the approach described reflects how projects actually operate, whether current standards and terminology are applied correctly, and whether the guidance holds up against how experienced practitioners work in the field.

5

Editorial and SEO review before publish

A final check covers structure, readability, internal linking, source citations, and SEO. Articles that do not meet the standard are returned for revision before publication is approved.No article is published without final editorial sign-off

6

Published, and accountable from that point on

The article goes live with the author's name, title, company, reviewer, publish date, and cited sources all visible. Publication is not the end of the process. If standards change or errors are found, the article is updated and the correction is noted publicly.

Standards every article must meet

Our three non-negotiable editorial standards

These apply to every article published on mastt.com, without exception.

Fact-checking

Every statistic, benchmark, and technical assertion must be verified against a primary source before the article is published. If a source cannot be found, it is removed. Accepted primary sources include:

Source citation

Where data or technical assertions appear, the source is cited so readers can verify independently. We prioritize industry bodies, government agencies, and peer-reviewed research.

Editorial independence

Mastt writes about project management because it's the industry we operate in. Some content will reference Mastt's tools where relevant. What we commit to is that all content is accurate, expert-authored, and useful on its own merits. Contributors are not paid to promote our products.

Transparency

Our position on AI in content production

Every article is reviewed and approved by a qualified expert before publication. AI assists with research and drafting, but the credited author is always responsible for the content. Where AI has helped, every standard on this page still applies.

Mastt builds AI tools for capital project teams, so we hold our content to the same principle: AI as a tool, human expertise as the authority. We believe being transparent about this builds trust. If our approach changes, this page will reflect it.

Accountability

Corrections and content updates

We take accuracy seriously. If something is wrong, we want to know and we will fix it.

Reporting a factual error

If you believe an article contains a factual error, get in touch. Verified errors are corrected promptly and a note is added to the article. We do not quietly edit errors without disclosure.

Keeping content current

Articles are reviewed when industry standards change, when regulations are updated, or when significant developments occur in the field. The last reviewed date on every article reflects when this was last completed.
