Last reviewed July 5, 2026
Look for milestones, deadlines, and specific timeframes in the scope of works. Highlight parts like project start and finish dates, submission dates for documents, and any completion deadlines for tasks. These are usually outlined in the schedule or listed under key deliverables.
Key points
- Identify milestones and deadlines in the document.
- Focus on start and finish dates.
- Check for submission and task completion dates.
Key dates are often in the project schedule or linked to specific tasks in the scope. Make sure to read through all sections carefully, as dates might be scattered throughout the document. It's also helpful to cross-reference with the contract to ensure accuracy.
