THE RRS GLOSSARY
Why it matters to a project
A quotation should show whether mobilisation is included or charged separately. Location, notice period, equipment and the programme can all affect the scope.
PROJECT EXAMPLE
A survey quotation separates the mobilisation charge from personnel days and equipment rental.
A useful distinction
A headline daily rate is not necessarily the total project cost.
Questions to ask when it appears in a scope
- What area, activity and decision does this term refer to?
- What evidence or output will the project team receive?
- What limitations need to be carried into the next stage?
