English translation:interim work

Explanation:
This is a standard question in tender notices. Unfortunately there seems to be no translation of the standard tender texts. I understand it to refer to interim work and deliverables under a contract. Usually the term "deliverables" covers actual work as well as goods, but to be on the safe side it might be best to include it. Suggestion: Will the contract consist of interim deliverables and/or work?
