I am currently writing my case study and would like to know the extent of information i need to provide in my case study to demonstrate an understanding of a subject which may not be covered .



For Example:

Forms of procurement - I have explained the  relevant one to my project but do i also need to explain advantages and disadvantages of the all other forms of procurement like design build etc.?



Design stage- My case study involves alteration of an existing building, so site orientation, climatic factors etc not considered. But do i need to demonstrate my understanding by explaining the general principles involved as an appendix?

Assessors will read the case study.  What you don't want is the Assessors to say after the interview Monika appears to have experience in X and Y, but we don't know if she has any experience or theoretical knowledge of it and the other.  You can bring documents along  to the interview from another project which is not part of your case study to show your experience.  In regard to procurement you might, in the context of your project, talk about other procurement methods and your experience of those in other projects.
