Switchgear has a 28-week lead time, but the electrical submittal is still in draft while rough-in dates are approaching. What is the best procurement-control action?

Correct Answer

D) Escalate the submittal, approval, release, and delivery dates in the procurement log

Long-lead risk is controlled by actively managing submittal, approval, release, fabrication, and delivery dates. Other choices delay procurement or track information too late to protect the schedule.

Answer Options
A
The contractor should wait until rough-in is complete to submit
B
The contractor should track only the delivery truck number
C
The contractor should remove switchgear from the project schedule
D
Escalate the submittal, approval, release, and delivery dates in the procurement log

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Long-lead risk is controlled by actively managing submittal, approval, release, fabrication, and delivery dates. Other choices delay procurement or track information too late to protect the schedule.
