Industry

Infrastructure.

Roads, bridges, airports, and the day the public uses them.

The schedule is a chain of handovers: land and utilities, then structure, then the surface and the systems, then a staged opening. Buildings and airport terminals sit in the same chain. Water and power sit in it when the brief is a defined planning job.

What the schedule has to carry

Enabling works

Clearance, temporary access, and the utility diversions that everything else waits on.

Structures

Piling, piers, decks, or the frame of a building or terminal. Precast only at the cycle you can resource.

Finishes and systems

Pavement, fit-out, and the services that have to be tested before anyone is let in.

Staged opening

Which part opens, on which date, and what is still a work site beside it.

Where the three levels show up

• Project planning is one package: a road section, a bridge, a terminal, or the monthly update.
• Integrated planning is civil, services, and the operator each holding a plan.
• Portfolio planning is several packages on one corridor or campus, after one schedule can be trusted.

Not in this offer

• A guaranteed opening day.
• A permit strategy, or a claim about archaeology or utilities.
• An estimate of the capital cost.
