This page will teach you everything about the Planning Work missions required for The Duggan Robbery in GTA Online's The Chop Shop DLC. The missions involve acquiring a Bypass Module and VIP Pass for arena access, as well as an optional mission to disrupt Duggan's armor supplies.

You can start these by using the computer from your Salvage Yard.

Planning works are the major prep missions for the final robbery. You only get two mandatory planning missions and one optional planning mission designed to make the final robbery relatively easier for you.

Planning Work 1: Bypass Module

In this mission, you need to steal a bypass module. However, the location of the bypass module is unknown until you destroy three signal jammers around the city.

Although the mission is not timed, we recommend using a flying vehicle with a homing missile feature built-in, such as a Buzzard helicopter or an Oppressor Mark II.

Any air vehicle with homing missiles feature is good for this mission.

Once you've destroyed all three signal jammers around the city, Jamal will send you the location of the Merryweather lockup housing the bypass module.

The lockup is heavily guarded. You will also find an armored vehicle with a mounted machine gun. Take cover and eliminate all the enemies.

Make sure first to take out the Merryweather guard posted on the mounted gun, as he deals a lot of damage.

Do not destroy the armored vehicle outside the lockup, as we will use it for cover against the enemies inside the lockup.

After eliminating everyone outside the lockup, destroy the control panel by the lockup shutter door.

The shutter door will open, and while it is opening up, quickly take cover by the armored vehicle.

There is a heavily armored juggernaut with a death machine inside and some more Merryweather guards.

The easiest way to take out this juggernaut is by using explosives. Use an RPG, a sticky grenade, or even a grenade launcher.

Anything explosive will take him out swiftly. If you have a death machine, you can also use that.
Office on the right side.

Luckily for us, it was on the toolbox.

After acquiring Peter's office keycard, you must go to his office.

It is up a floor on the opposite side of this workshop. Remember to avoid the cameras.
Go back to the middle of the workshop and wait for the camera to pan all the way to the left so you can move to the right.

Also, be careful of the camera facing the stairs leading up to Peter's office.

The VIP pass inside Peter's office is also in a random location, sometimes on the table, on the shelf, and sometimes on the TV stand.

In our case, it was on the TV stand.

When you pick up the VIP Pass, some guards will enter the workshop and try to take you down.
