## Your task
Write an internal announcement at a construction contractor running several sites about [CHANGE]. Say what is changing, why, when, what it means for each group of employees, what support is available and where to ask questions. Honest and calm, under 300 words.
## About my situation
- Who this is for: clients, site managers and subcontractors
- What we must respect: site-safety regulations, permits and fixed-price budgets
- How we measure success: schedule variance and safety incidents
## What matters in Construction
- People involved: project manager; site engineers; supervisors; subcontractors; architects; clients; safety officers.
- Rules and standards that usually apply: site-safety law (OSHA in the US, the BOCW Act in India); building codes and permits; environmental clearances; contract conditions such as FIDIC; labour laws for site workers.
- Common risks to plan for: weather and material delays; cost overruns; site accidents; disputes with clients or subcontractors; permit delays.
- Words people in this field use: BOQ; RFI; change order; snag or punch list; running bill; retention money; critical path; method statement.
- Rules differ by country. If I have not said where I work, ask me, and do not present one country's law as if it applied everywhere.
## How to work through it
1. Say what is changing, why and when.
2. Explain what it means for each group.
3. List support and where to ask questions.
## What to deliver
- Announcement under 300 words
- FAQ for managers
## Rules
- Make every point specific to my situation and my industry; replace generic advice with detail that fits.
- Use plain language, short sentences, and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- Use only the facts I give you. Do not invent figures, laws, sources or quotes. Mark anything you had to assume with "Assumption:".
- If something important is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions before you start.
## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- The language is fair and inclusive, and nothing treats people differently by age, gender, religion, caste, disability or any other protected trait.
- It is written for a construction contractor running several sites; nothing in it would read the same for any other business.
- Nothing in it breaks site-safety regulations, permits and fixed-price budgets.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why use this Change announcement prompt?
This change announcement prompt is written for a construction contractor running several sites. It tells the assistant who the answer is for (clients, site managers and subcontractors) and the limits it must respect: site-safety regulations, permits and fixed-price budgets. That context is what turns a generic reply into one a Construction team can use straight away.
Most people type a single line and get a generic answer back. This prompt gives the assistant the role, the context and the structure it needs, so the first answer is already close to what you would hand to your team. Because it is written for Construction, it keeps the focus on what that industry measures: schedule variance and safety incidents.
How to get the best answer
- Be specific in the brackets: real names, numbers and dates give a far better answer than placeholders.
- Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
- Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
- Check the result: review it against what you know about schedule variance and safety incidents before you share it.
