That makes pre-list preparation unusually high-leverage. Every deferred item you leave becomes a line item in someone else's spreadsheet at a multiple of what it would have cost you to address.
Permitting and lead times dominate. The portion of the schedule you control is usually shorter than the portion set by the county, the utility, and the supply chain, so front-load anything with an approval attached.
