The org chart
The draft org chart has a box called INFORMATION MANAGEMENT. It says "The IM team". There's nobody in it.

The information · The draft org chart
Somebody has to look after me on this job. Not "the team". A name, with the hours to do it.
The wrong way
Three packs
Bev, who buys everything the job needs, sends three electrical subcontractors whatever was on the shared drive that day. Each gets a different pack.
Three quotes
Three quotes for the electrics, pricing three different things. The cheapest one priced no information at all. It wins.
DesignDesign: Month two of the job…
The IM team
"The IM team" turns out to be one person, on five jobs.
News from the client
They find out about this one from the client, who asks who's looking after its information.
The IM team: Shopping centre? Which one's that?
The variation
The cheap electricians want paying for the information they didn't price.
Bev: You're telling me 'drawings' were extra?
Electrician: Says here 'by others'.
Nobody's name in the box, three quotes for three different jobs, and "by others" turns out to mean us.
+3 weeks on the back alley's bill: No named people and three different packs: a stretched team and a variation from the cheapest subbie.
