I do believe it , same as the survey policy you referred to , what’s supposed to be done and what actually gets done isn’t necessarily the same thing , however stating what’s supposed to happen still seems the appropriate thing to do.
The survey process and single stage/two stage installation processes make sense , and work if done correctly and are designed at a national level to be implemented locally , but once rolled out to local management, who may have different priorities, these processes are often ignored , if local management want to take a chance on two stage jobs by omitting the first stage and trusting to luck that on the appointment date ( the second stage ) any problems can be overcome on the day is reckless in my opinion, but I’d agree it happens far too often , thats why , in part , you get complaints on forums such as this , and significant compensation claims paid , for ignoring these laid down processes .
