Why our installation manual has 170 steps

One day with a crane is not a plan. What a phase-gated installation sequence looks like, and what it protects you from.

Certainty is written before dispatch

Site work rewards preparation more than any other stage of a modular project. The Missouri sequence writes 170 numbered steps across 14 phases, from raft survey to documented handover, with crew sizes and durations per step.

Phase gates, in writing

Each phase closes with recorded checks before the next begins — floors before walls, bracing before trusses, service tests before finishes. The full gate list is issued to your appointed installer, not published.

What the local team receives

The appointed installer gets the sequence in English with equipment lists per step — which is also how a foreign crew, a local inspector and a remote engineer stay on the same page.

The buyer's checklist

Ask for the step count, the phase list, who holds stop authority at each gate, and when the sequence is issued to your installer. A real sequence answers all four in minutes.

Common questions

How long does installation take?

The sequence carries a duration and a crew assumption for every step, so the programme is built up from the work rather than promised as a headline. The figure for your configuration and site is issued with the sequence during project review.

Can our own contractor install it?

Yes — the sequence is written for an appointed local team, with hold points where records are required.

What happens when something does not fit?

Deviations are logged against the step and resolved with the engineering model — not decided while the crane is waiting.
