Hi Will,

I'm coming to the same conclusion. That conceptual design should be
done before the project proposal, before the funding proposal - use it
to define the business case/statement of need (or local equivalent)
prior to going anywhere near the high level design spec.

And yes, I take your point that design is not linear, nor is it a
stage in a wider process, but an ongoing activity (albeit one that may
have strategic-within-project and tactical-within-project tasks).

Best regards, Andrew
