GENERAL
Following the award of a new contract, action is required on many fronts at the same time, for example :
- the formation of contract team
- the establishment of facilities on site
- the overall planning of the project
- the marshaling of resources to carry out the works
- the establishment of contractual and administrative procedures.
With the level of activity required in the early stages of a contract, it is essential that :
(a) responsibilities and priorities are defined at the earliest possible date
(b) sufficient resources are allocated to the start-up phase
(c) attention is given to all matters which will affect the start of the works and the efficient administration of
the contract.
This section sets down the procedures to be followed to ensure that the above requirements are met.
