Emma Di VitaHOST
Um, Kerry, can I then go to you and ask around, about how over your kind of 15 years working in projects, is it common for a project to have a kind of staggered start or a bit of an unclear start? Um, and how f- what has that meant for you as a project manager?

Kerry DalyGUEST
So within the construction business, especially for us at Alpha BT, a project would start when we're looking at the tendering and the bidding.

Kerry DalyGUEST
But a bit like Anita said, there's not necessarily this one big first start off, all the project team members are there.

Kerry DalyGUEST
Um, we do have like a sales to delivery handover before we do an official launch.

Kerry DalyGUEST
So the sales to delivery handover does involve the PM, who's actually gonna deliver it, and that's that time that Anita said about, you know, trying to get to understand how we've won the project, what it is we're gonna deliver, how we're going to deliver it.

Emma Di VitaHOST
So have you got any advice or, um, experience that you can draw on, that, that you could share that has worked or that you try to do?
