Why this matters
The builder and supplier need a shared, current source of truth for dimensions, bearing, openings, revisions, delivery, and field questions. A credible timeline is built from dependencies and review gates, not from a desired completion date copied into a spreadsheet.
Parallel revisions create a package that looks complete but cannot be confidently installed.
A practical framework
- name the current drawing set
- define revision and approval workflow
- coordinate schedule and delivery constraints
- route field questions to the appropriate professional
Questions to answer
- Which milestone cannot start until another deliverable is accepted?
- What review time belongs to a public agency, owner, lender, or supplier?
- What is the recovery plan if the controlling activity slips?
Common failure modes
- Showing dates without naming the dependency that makes them possible.
- Ignoring procurement, review, and decision time.
- Moving a finish date without showing the cost or scope consequence.
