Ask what you would ask your project manager

What does the client need to decide this week?

Three selections block the plumbing rough-in on March 12. The shower valve is the only one without an owner. The tub filler and the vanity faucet are with the client.

Do you want me to ask the client for a decision?

Why is the sofa late?

The sofa’s CFA is 4 days overdue. Production can’t start until it’s approved. The vendor’s stated lead time is an estimate, so I can’t confirm that the install date still holds.

Should I remind the client and ask the vendor for a revised date?

Are we over the tile allowance?

The primary bath tile is $1,240 over its allowance as selected. The builder’s allowance note covers material only, and the labor line is not yet priced.

Should I draft the allowance overrun for your review?

Does this vanity need an inspection?

I can’t state that. The rule library has no verified entry for this jurisdiction. It needs a check with the local building department.

Should I add a question to the next builder meeting?

What Voga will not do

• Send without you

  Anything bound for a client, builder or vendor waits for a person.

• Invent a price, lead time or code requirement

  If it can’t point to a record, it says so.

• Compute your dates

  Order-by and decision-by dates come from fixed arithmetic.

• Act as your lawyer or code official

  Rules show their verification status and the review they need.

• Spend without a limit

  Each run has a budget. Firms can bring their own model keys.
