Understand the rights, obligations and contractual framework.
Technical
Understand the building, design and construction itself.
Forensic
Establish the factual and documentary record.
The Corvinus Method
Establish the position.
Establish
Establish the relevant facts, obligations and documentary record.
Examine

Construct
Build the argument, response or strategy around that position.
