Work Stage Sequences by Procurement Method
The diagrams illustrate different sequences for completion of work stages for various procurement methods, but are not representative of time.
In arriving at an acceptable timescale the choice of procurement method may be as relevant as other more obvious factors such as the amount of
work to be done, the client’s tendering requirements, risks associated with third party approvals or funding etc.
This symbol indicates that prior to commencement time should be allowed for appointing consultants.
