GENERAL
The project guideline contains the project- and corporate-specific regulations for the course of projects.
This document provides especially new project members with the necessary information to understand the
project and the administrative and technical regulations connected with it. It is meant to be used as reference
document.
The project guideline is an exclusively internal document which must not be handed over to any costumer.
All details concerning the conducting of a project regarding customer involvement which have to be made known
to the customer are described in the project manual or are at least referenced in the project manual.
The content of the project guideline serves as signpost. The project manager is asked to extend and adapt it
according to project requirements. Chapters which are not needed should be deleted by project managers in
order to avoid misunderstandings.
Consultant History
Background information of the project history from the consultant perspective: which consultants/companies
were involved so far? What was the reason for changing the staffing?
4
Parking Facilities at the Customer’s Site
• Does the customer provide parking facilities?
• How to find these facilities?
• How to get access for car park (ID cards, etc.)?
• Limited temporary access?
Note: We recommend to document work in a weekly time sheet to be signed by the customer. The time sheet is
basis for ISP and the following invoicing. The worksheet signed by the customer avoids queries concerning the
project work efforts.
For each activity, work times as well as travel times are to be recorded. If the work time for the customer
exceeds 10 hours a day, the project manager has to be informed in advance.

The daily rate is based on an 8-hour day. The customer will be charged a higher daily rate (xxxx Euro per hour),
should the actual work time exceed 8 hours. The daily rate plus eventual overtime will be credited for the
delivering business unit. The travel expenses will be also charged against the delivering business unit. The
consultants get the project L rate respectively minimum L rate for their bonus.
TRAVEL GUIDELINE

invoice travel expenses, and documents special regulations regarding non-accountable services.
