Usually design schedules if outsourced are based on contract milestones for design phases such as Conceptual Design, Preliminary Design, 60%, 90% & 100%, details might vary. But if you do in-house design then you got to get into the details. I am from the civil contracting business but at very few times we end up doing some works at pharmaceuticals, chemical or for the couple of petro at the island. I know some mechanical estimators use Gulf Publishing Books as a reference. The following might provide you some help or at least a link where to search for more appropriate references.

Dear Jack,
It would be much more benefitial if you get a copy of your contract documents and especially the BOQ and sit with your Project Team and start building you Program of Works.
With kind regards,
