The same service is often used during new-build and major refurbishment phases, where design choices, planning requirements, and site conditions affect what can be done safely and efficiently. In decision-stage terms, this is often where teams move from broad options into method selection, sequencing, and budget alignment.
Whether the priority is compliance, stability, or restoring normal operation quickly, early scoping usually prevents avoidable delays and rework.
