Best Practices lessons
Habits that keep project inputs, commercial review and client outputs clear and traceable.
Start with controlled information
Use a simple document register and remove superseded files before the first pass.
Review by value and uncertainty
Start with large or low-confidence packages, then work down to smaller routine lines.
Separate evidence from judgement
Keep source quantities and rates visible, and record the commercial decision made by the reviewer.
Issue one clear basis
Make the client total, scope, allowances, exclusions, validity and revision agree across every issued page.
Use this checklist
- Maintain a project document register
- Use named reviewers and dates
- Keep contingency separate from margin
- Archive the exact version issued
