A (similar) case... In (English-Greek) bid documents for similar projects the selected contractor submits to the Employer (Owner of project) an "implementation file" containing tasks layout and priorities, timeschedule, milestones etc. and a technical file with measurements, materials, standards to follow, etc for approval. Then the Employer upon acceptance or following revision thereof, appoints a Monitor to ensure performance as per the submitted files. Don't know if this applies to your case, though.

one more thought...the Maitre d'Oeuvre on a construction project is responsible for scheduling and ensuring that the proper skill sets are used (welding; masonry) in the proper order

I don't disagree; but I haven't found a direct equivalent in construction as there are for other terms [such as cahier des charges et des servitudes or CAHIER OPERATIONNEL ET TECHNIQUE]...It seems to me that if nothing else come up, this would be safe to use

There are a lot of google hits for ''implementation binder'', but they seem to be in other realms: health, sociology, education. I am not finding any dealing with construction sites.
chris collister Jun 18, 2010:
cahier "Cahier" is often tricky to translate accurately, but here it refers to the dossier or specification document covering the work to be done. Maybe "specifications manual" or "works specification"would cover it, but there are civil engineering experts out there who would know better than me!

What is it exactly that is being mis en oeuvre?

It often happens that contractors wish to use a product that the client is not familiar with, and must therefore provide background information on how it is used (in addition to what it is made of). Imagine you're having a new bathroom installed and the contractor wants to use biomortar made from plant resins. You might be suspicious and want to know all the details about how effective it will be in wet rooms and whether its drying time is likelty to force you postpone the big party you were planning to throw.
