Abstract: Abstract At present, under the guidance of the government, “integration” has become the mainstream and trend in the construction industry, but there is still a problem of low project transparency in the construction industry. The low transparency of the project will make the participants of the project unable to effectively and comprehensively transmit information and cooperate effectively in the process of project implementation, which will have a great negative impact on the final results of the project. Project transparency mainly refers to the openness and sharing of various aspects among all participants in the whole process of construction project. Through sorting out and analyzing the existing literature on transparency and project management, this paper classifies the project transparency into three parts: information transparency, rule transparency and culture transparency, and expounds them separately. In addition, the influence of project transparency on the whole project is analyzed comprehensively. At present, there is a lack of research on project transparency, and there is no clear research results. In the future, we should strengthen the in-depth research on improving project transparency and the development of specific implementation measures, continue to combine with the actual situation, and deeply explore specific measures and methods to improve project transparency in all aspects, in order to produce more important guiding significance.
