−	*The contract administrator arranges for production information to be issued to the contractor.
−	*The client and contractor prepare and agree schedules of conditions for adjacent property or structures to be retained.
−	*The lead consultant co-ordinates the consultant team to check that all necessary insurance, permissions, approvals, party wall agreements and other statutory requirements are in place and that all necessary planning conditions have been satisfied.
−	*If necessary, and if it has not already been done, the client appoints party wall surveyors, an approved inspector, site inspectors and an in-house or outsourced engineering team to witness testing and commissioning and to take over the running of the services as soon as practical completion is certified.
−	*The contractor prepares and publishes a master programme for the works and issues this to the contract administrator. The contract administrator may wish to bring key dates on the master programme to the attention of the client or consultant team (for example dates for decisions or information, or for works outside of the contract). The contract administrator should not approve the master programme as approval might be considered to relieve the contractor of liability for programming the works in such a way as to achieve the completion date.
−	*The principal designer ensures that co-ordination procedures are in place for design carried out by the contractor or specialist contractors.
−	*The contract administrator briefs the site inspectors regarding procedures for inspecting and reporting on work on site as it progresses. This might include specific monitoring and reporting arrangements relating to the implementation of client policies such as environmental policies (on a large project this might involve the appointment of an environmental consultant specifically to perform that role).
−	*The client may need to put procedures in place to move some of its staff and equipment so that it can continue to operate effectively during construction.
−	*The contractor agrees the basic principles with the design team to be used for grid lines and setting out of the site.
