The CTBUH lists a project manager when a specific firm has been commissioned to oversee this aspect of a tall building’s design/construction. When the project management efforts are handled by the developer, main contract, or architect, this field will be omitted.
The main contractor is the supervisory contractor of all construction work on a project, management of sub-contractors and vendors, etc. May be referred to as "Construction Manager," however, for consistency CTBUH uses the term "Main Contractor" exclusively.
Other Consultant refers to other organizations which provided significant consultation services for a building project (e.g. wind consultants, environmental consultants, fire and life safety consultants, etc).

The Europarco Business Park is a new development on the south side of Rome; a mixed-use complex which encourages adjacent business and residential buildings. Europarco Tower is the main office tower of the complex, and is intended to act as the main icon of the community.
The skin of the building was developed to respond to environmental conditions, involving the use of insulated panels interspersed within the façade system, as well as vertical fins and solar blinds for shading. The cladding system is made of prefabricated units which are either glazed or opaque, and are arranged in order to provide optimum daylighting for each interior space. The glazed units are also operable, allowing users to control natural ventilation to the space.
The building draws on the tri-generation power plant of the complex, using highly efficient power. It also has a rainwater harvesting system which will supply water for toilets and irrigation.
