Is There A Template/Procedure For Sub Contractors Monthly/weekly Planning Requirements

Hi

We have just started a massive energy project which will eventually take on board lots of subcontractors, who will obviously need to be managed accordingly.

I have been asked to write a procedure/template outside of the generic standard contract requiremants as regards our requirements from them from a planning point of view each week/month.

Does anyone know of a good place for me to start, is there any literature out there with which i can reference, or perhaps someone has done something similar in the past and would point me in the right direction....

Thanks
