Your GC should give you a clear understanding of your project milestones. Clear milestones will help keep the project on track and ensure that everything is done and funds are distributed according to those milestones.
Timelines are just as important as milestones. Having a clear understanding of timelines will also keep the project on track and help identify and prevent any delays.
