Plan Before Construction

Define priorities, existing conditions, budget, material expectations, permit requirements, and schedule constraints before work begins.

Document the Scope

A written scope identifies included work, assumptions, exclusions, allowances, responsibilities, and milestone expectations.

Coordinate the Work

Proper sequencing protects completed work, reduces delays, and ensures inspections occur at the correct stage.
