| Some additional tasks have included providing a market study, supplying a cost analysis and budget breakdown, as well as providing a Gantt chart. I find the use of "as well as" awkward here, and would be more inclined to put "...budget breakdown, and providing a Gantt chart." Is there a grammatical or style concern with this usage of "as well as"? This is from a paper that I am marking and I would like to know if I should suggest making changes, particularly since I have been finding this usage very common throughout the papers that I mark. Thanks for any suggestions. |

| You could say: Some additional tasks have included providing a market study, supplying a cost analysis and budget breakdown, and providing a Gantt chart.However, as well as serves just as well as and, and, as another poster noted, in the aforementioned context it means the same as in addition to. ~R |
