A facade contractor and a sign-maintenance team may each have a workable drawing for the same address. The problem appears when both bookings rely on the same entrance or the same area for unloading. A facilities appointment confirms access to the building; it does not establish how public space is available to either contractor.
Combine the bookings on one sketch
Ask each team to identify its actual work area, delivery movement, public entrance and time needed to clear the frontage. Use separate colours and put the actual dates on the sketch. Check setup and collection as well as the advertised working hours: two non-overlapping appointments can still need the same bay during changeover.
Example: a clear hour that does not exist
Cleaning ends at noon and sign maintenance begins at 13:00. The platform collection is booked for 13:15, just as the sign contractor expects its delivery. The building manager can identify the clash, but each contractor still needs to check the effect of a proposed change on its own arrangements. A shared address does not make two project records interchangeable.
Agree a single changeover contact
Record who confirms the first team has cleared the area, who receives that confirmation and who can hold the second dispatch. Circulate the revised sketch with the date and both job references. Resolve uncertainty about the occupied area or permission with the responsible project team before either booking proceeds.
