Questions & answers
Answers from our team to questions students ask in the course support group.
Planning Phase
QDo you plan procurement for every floor or work package in the programme, or only long-lead items?
Procurement is planned per material, not per location. For example, if the same tiles go on every floor, add one procurement activity for that item. Long-lead materials are often kept apart from the others in the WBS.
QHow do you handle standard and repetitive materials, for example with a procurement log or a rolling look-ahead?
The same way as above: one procurement activity per material, not one per floor or area.
QHow do you set order-by dates, and do you link them to installation activities?
The procurement in the main schedule is kept at a high level. The detail goes in a separate document, the procurement tracking schedule. More reading:
