Defined before site acceleration.

Key activities

• Review the brief, drawings, references, and site context available at the outset
• Clarify intended use, finish expectations, timeline pressures, and stakeholder structure
• Identify whether the project is best suited to civil execution, interior execution, design-build, renovation, or a combined scope

Client decisions

• Confirm the desired project outcome and primary scope
• Share the available drawings, references, and operational constraints

Deliverables

• Initial scope understanding
• Early suitability review
• Recommended next-step pathway

Key activities

• Review the existing site, shell, or interior condition
• Assess access, retained work, service interfaces, and protection needs
• Map the likely execution risks before commitments are formalized

Client decisions

• Confirm which areas, systems, or retained conditions fall inside the working scope
• Clarify access windows, operational constraints, and occupancy sensitivity where relevant

Deliverables

• Site observations
• Scope clarifications
• Execution risk notes

Key activities

• Review drawings for constructability and site coordination pressure points
• Align structural, service, and finish interfaces before mobilization
• Identify substrate requirements, mock-up needs, and tolerance-sensitive details

Client decisions

• Freeze or prioritize key technical decisions that affect procurement and site release
• Confirm consultant or approval pathways for details needing sign-off

Deliverables

• Technical review comments
• Execution coordination notes
• Priority decision list

Key activities

• Define execution packages and likely sequencing logic
• Build the preliminary schedule around approvals, site readiness, and procurement timing
• Clarify assumptions that materially affect cost or timing

Client decisions

• Approve the direction of the execution budget and timing expectations
• Confirm whether the project should proceed in one continuous phase or multiple controlled phases

Deliverables

• Scope-linked cost structure
• Preliminary sequencing plan
• Assumption and dependency list

Key activities

• Release materials and vendors in the order required by the build logic
• Coordinate site setup, access, protection, and early trade sequencing
• Confirm preconditions for sensitive or long-lead packages

Client decisions

• Approve key materials and packages required for mobilization
• Confirm any final operational rules affecting access, work windows, or retained spaces

Deliverables

• Mobilization readiness plan
• Package release sequence
• Site-start coordination notes

Key activities

• Execute structural, masonry, waterproofing, and preparation scopes as required
• Coordinate openings, levels, and service interfaces against the planned finish build-up
• Review substrate readiness continuously rather than only at the end of the phase

Client decisions

• Approve any necessary site-led revisions that affect later packages
• Sign off on completed base conditions before finish-sensitive work advances

Deliverables

• Completed civil scope aligned to downstream requirements
• Readiness checks for services and fit-out interfaces

Key activities

• Execute ceilings, wall systems, flooring, lighting interfaces, and finish packages
• Coordinate joinery, hardware, and visible services with site conditions
• Maintain sequence discipline so completed work is protected as the project closes in

Client decisions

• Confirm any final finish approvals that affect installation sequence
• Review mock-ups or sample outcomes where critical finish expectations need alignment

Deliverables

• Installed interior packages
• Visible detail coordination at finish stage
• Completion-ready zones for review

Key activities

• Inspect junctions, surfaces, hardware alignment, lighting integration, and retained-condition transitions
• Track completion and correction items in sequence rather than in isolated bursts
• Validate the project against the agreed standard before handover is initiated

Client decisions

• Review the close-out standard and any final completion priorities
• Confirm readiness for handover once agreed corrections are addressed

Deliverables

• Structured snag and close-out review
• Completion status visibility
• Handover readiness confirmation

Key activities

• Complete final review and close-out discussions
• Confirm resolved snag items and delivered scope
• Coordinate the transition from active site to occupied or operational space

Client decisions

• Approve final handover readiness
• Confirm any agreed post-handover follow-up items

Deliverables

• Project handover
• Final review record
• Post-completion follow-up list where required

Key activities

• Address agreed post-handover observations
• Review any minor performance or finish concerns that appear after occupation
• Close remaining commitments in an orderly manner

Client decisions

• Report any agreed follow-up items within the planned review window
• Confirm closure once outstanding items are resolved

Deliverables

• Post-handover review support
• Closure of agreed follow-up actions
