Financing Timelines: Separate Work Time From Waiting Time

Medro Advisors · Research and commentary from Don McClain

By Don McClain | Founder & Principal, Medro Advisors

The September 25 archive puts the transaction timeline before source selection. For each remaining step, separate the time needed to prepare the work from the time spent awaiting another party’s review. Identify when the reviewer can actually start and whether an incomplete submission resets the process. Do not reduce the schedule simply by assuming faster responses. Medro can help organize dependencies and questions; review queues and closing dates must be confirmed by the parties responsible.
