construction managers and project managers, would you share with me some rules or practices that you use on every project to keep it within scope?

I would like to start my learning with real world applications of what you use on real life projects. Perhaps they are from an educational course or from years of experience. Please share what you live by on your projects.

Thanks team,

Mr. CH-
A good Project Manager knows his Contract and Scope of Work intimately. It is his/her job to confirm that the staff and Designers are following PM direction and not giving in to "Scope Creep", especially within the EPC Contract environment.
The PMBOK Guide will not be a resource for these skills due to the lack of Contract information. You must learn this skillset as a Practicing Professional Project Manager.
In my world, a PM must be an expert on 2 items not covered by PMBOK- Safety and Contracts.
I hope this guidance "from the trenches" helps!

I appreciate the advice from the field.
