# Getting Clear Upfront: The 12-Point Preparation Checklist

 By: [Shana Ryan](https://www.launchpointretail.com/insights/author/shana-ryan)

Ready to engage InStore Design Display to design and build your custom retail display? Great! We are so glad to be partnering with you to bring your concept for a display to life.

We've learned a thing or two about how to make the design, manufacturing, packing, and delivery of displays go smoothly. A project delivered on time, on budget, and on target starts with the information we gather upfront.

We designed our 12-point checklist to prepare you for what we need to get the project moving. From guidelines to requirements, quantity to dates, locations to budget, we intend to be extra clear on all the ins and outs of your display before the design process even starts. It's the most efficient and effective way to get your project to the finish line and into stores where it can help make your products stand out with your target customer.[![IDD-Preparation-Checklist](https://www.launchpointretail.com/hs-fs/hubfs/04-Downloads/IDD-Preparation-Checklist.jpg?width=800&height=1010&name=IDD-Preparation-Checklist.jpg)](https://www.launchpointretail.com/hubfs/IDD_Preparation%20Checklist.pdf)
