affect the budget and costs of the identified delivery options. If there is significant change to the Notes
service plan, asset and property configurations or similar, that impact on the preferred option(s),
consideration should be given to reworking the options analysis process.
Cost plans for Capital Works Projects are prepared by consultants in conjunction with the
development of successive stages of planning and design. Project managers and PCGs use the
cost plans to exercise financial monitoring and control.
It is intended that the Total End Cost budget elements be assessed and modified on an individual
project basis as set out in the section Allowances and are dependant upon the risks assessed at each
phase of the project.

Did u know? What is CMB and PCG?
CMB and PCGs will then be able to use the cost plan categories set out in the section
Allowances to exercise better financial monitoring and control. It is expected that sufficient
funds will be available to introduce energy efficiency and waste management measures
and cover additional items such as FFE and IT requirements.

11.5 Scheduling Sequence

You use the scheduling sequence to specify in which sequence the system executes the scheduling
or rescheduling of an operation group or order group. You can set up the sequence using various
criteria, for example:
 Order priority

 Resource
 Product number
The scheduling sequence is relevant for:

 Manual scheduling and rescheduling of operations and order groups using drag and drop.
 Scheduling and rescheduling of operations and order groups using the planning function
Reschedule.

 Scheduling with detailed scheduling heuristics.
The scheduling sequence is not relevant for scheduling an order. The scheduling sequence is
valid for all detailed scheduling strategies in a strategy profile.
