When building your scheme, its good practice to spend ample time preparing before you start building. Having a well prepared timeline will help provide order and structure to your scheme build.

Within your timeline you´ll be able to dedicate time to testing. Having a second pair is eyes is always great for testing but not always doable. 

We´d always recommend time after your scheme build for end to end testing too.

Our timelines normally follow the same structure but a few variations depending on the scheme. We´d recommend building and signing off your question set before moving onto any other section. This will avoid going back and making changes to your question set at a later date which can result on a knock-on effect across your scheme. 

Your endorsements are normally the only section that doesn´t rely on the question set. These can be built at any time. However, you won´t be able to trigger your endorsements until your question set is built.

Your MTAs and RNLs are always built towards the end of the scheme build. This is normally due to them being variations of your First Premium sections e.g. your MTA rating file is quite often a copy of your First Premium rating file but with a few tweaks.
