Define an infrastructure advisory brief

Original practical guidance · Adapt to the assignment. This is not a technical feasibility assessment or legal advice.

Start with the decision

Identify whether the assignment concerns a concept, project readiness, implementation coordination or a review. State the decision the output should support.

Separate evidence from assumptions

List land and site information, available studies, utility requirements, connectivity, institutional roles and known constraints. Mark gaps clearly; do not treat assumptions as verified feasibility findings.

Map interfaces and dependencies

Identify the responsible institutions, approvals, stakeholder inputs and external dependencies. Record who can verify each input and when it is needed.

Specify the required outputs

Define the proposed outputs, review stages, acceptance criteria and exclusions. Identify which specialist assessments require separate technical or statutory expertise.
