What information needs to be gathered?

In collecting relevant information, the contract director should understand the distinction between the project deed obligations, but also the many requirements that sit alongside the project deed (e.g. relationships and stakeholders). 

The project deed will set out a range of processes that may be followed by the parties, but it will not detail the internal steps within government that must be undertaken. To properly administer the project deed, the contract director must understand these internal steps.
