- Land-use permitted for industry
- Power and water availability confirmed
Stage 2 — Approvals
- Business registrations in place
- Building plan approval
- Consent to Establish from the pollution control board
- Fire safety approvals
Stage 3 — Construction and machinery
- Civil works schedule tied to machinery delivery
- Electrical load sanction and installation
- Machinery inspection before dispatch
Stage 4 — Commissioning

Most delays come from approvals started late and civil works that are not ready when machinery arrives. A single integrated schedule avoids both.
