GLS SMART Schedule - Deliverables™
Making the production of better Schedules more efficient
The Problem
Procurement contracts regularly include schedules which are unclear and poorly drafted – especially in more complex procurement scenarios.
A lack of clarity frequently results in dispute scenarios arising.
Related challenges include:
- legal teams spend too long reviewing poorly prepared schedules
- schedules are usually compiled last minute and by multiple authors
- important commercial terms are missing and/or lack precision
- schedules are often cut and pasted meaning poor schedules are replicated
- you do not have consistent and/or structured schedule templates
- technical & operational teams lack experience in “plain English” drafting
- your business does not have an approved common start point to schedule production
You need a tool that helps your team create complete, clear & comprehensive schedules every time.
