Why this structure works

The numbering mirrors the build sequence, from pre-construction through to closeout, so the folder order matches the order work actually happens. Keeping `03-Drawings_Specs` separate from `02-Contracts_Permits` matters in practice: drawings are revised constantly while permits are fixed records, and mixing them risks working from a superseded revision.

Small Project Adaptation

For a small renovation, merge `01-PreConstruction` and `02-Contracts_Permits` into a single `Approvals` folder and keep the drawings and site operations split intact.

Large Scale Scaling

On multi-phase or multi-building work, nest the whole structure under a phase or building identifier so each has its own complete document set and closeout package.
