## Installers stall when drawings and answers are late

The crew is on site. The drawing does not match the floor. An RFI goes out and the crew waits. Rework follows, and the schedule moves.

Bluestem works to reduce field rework, change orders and schedule surprises before the crew gets to the floor.

## Four documents that installers and operators use

Four documents carry the plan from the office to the floor. Each one is written for the people who build and run the system.

### Layouts
- Show how conveyor and equipment fit the space. They close design gaps early.

### Coordination drawings
- Line up the work of each vendor. They prevent clashes between trades.

### Schedules
- Show every dependency between vendors. They prevent surprises on dates.

### Execution plans
- Set the order of work and who owns each step. They keep the field moving.

## Controls coordination, explained

In this trade, controls means the PLC and control systems that run the equipment. Controls coordination makes sure each vendor's control work lines up with the mechanical work and with the other vendors.

Our project managers have hands-on experience in conveyor systems, automation projects, controls coordination and MHE installations.

### Produce the documents
- Bluestem produces them in step with your vendors.

### Hand over to your team
- Your team and installers get the final documents.
