In the look-ahead meeting, the constraint is that long-lead item needs early coordinated release. Which procurement sequence should the project team carry?
Correct Answer
D) verify submittal and lead time before release
verify submittal and lead time before release best matches the stated condition. The other choices are real construction options in the same family, but they fit different field conditions.

Option B: wait until installation week to order
wait until installation week to order skips the written authority, scope, price, notice, or release control needed for sequencing long-lead material.
Option C: Field method: substitute in field after delay appears
Field method: substitute in field after delay appears skips the written authority, scope, price, notice, or release control needed for sequencing long-lead material.
