feasibility planning question
What determines a bottled water plant project timeline?
The schedule depends on approvals, water testing, bottle development, scope freeze, engineering, manufacturing, factory readiness, shipping, installation and acceptance. Use milestone dependencies rather than a generic promise in weeks or months.
