Define what you are buying

Verify delivery capacity
Review named technical leadership, supervisors, trained teams, tools, suppliers, response times, document control and the route for defects or emergency support.
Compare the exclusions
A responsible proposal identifies design responsibility, authority fees, civil works, access, shutdowns, testing, third-party inspection, warranties and any partner-delivered activities.
