Local people's governments at and above the prefecture level shall, in accordance with the principle of "horizontal to side, vertical to the end", integrate and construct the project approval management system covering all relevant local departments, districts and counties, and dock with the relevant national systems. The provincial engineering construction project approval management system should share the approval data in real time with the relevant systems of the country and the cities in the region. Third, unified examination and approval management system. Integrate all kinds of planning, build a "blueprint" of "multi-planning and integration", and coordinate the implementation of the project. Establish a comprehensive service window for engineering construction project approval, and realize "one window" to provide comprehensive services. At each stage of examination and approval, the operation mode of "one working guide, one application form, one set of declaration materials, completing multiple examinations and approvals" is implemented, and the declaration materials are integrated. Establish and improve the supporting system of examination and approval, and standardize the operation of examination and approval through a set of mechanisms. Fourth, unified supervision.

Local people's governments should assume the main responsibility for the reform, formulate reform timetables and road maps, and ensure that the reform tasks are completed on time and in good quality. Those who fail to advance their work effectively and influence the reform process of the examination and approval system for construction projects, especially those who fail to complete their phased work objectives on time, should be held seriously accountable in accordance with the law and regulations.
