Engineering team reviewing tender and GFC drawing sets

The transition from tender stage to GFC is where many assumptions become risks. If unresolved, these assumptions emerge later as RFIs, variation claims, or sequencing conflicts.

Our teams run a structured handover with three outputs: design basis confirmation, unresolved risk log, and detail priority matrix. This keeps all stakeholders aligned before site mobilization reaches full pace.

A strong tender-to-GFC process improves schedule certainty and gives contractors confidence to plan procurement and manpower more accurately.
