Just a comment: many responders assumed "skills from scratch".
It wasn't pointed by the author of the thread.
Maybe the system is to be installed from scratch, but maybe the team
consist of skilled persons.

As John Eells points out, if you prefer to install z/OS from scratch in
house then you'd use the z/OS Customized Offerings Driver, available
at no
additional charge with your z/OS license (assuming electronic delivery
anyway). This process should be reasonably well documented (or
better) in
the "z/OS Planning for Installation" book. You can find the current
version
of that publication (and much more) here:
http://www.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/installation/
IBM and service partners follow these same installation steps if they
perform the work.
In addition to the sources above, the Customized Offerings Driver
comes with documentation to lead you through the steps you must take
to use it. And of course, ServerPac comes with an Installing Your
Order book to get you through the installation jobs generated by the
dialog, which in turn is documented in ServerPac: Using the
Installation Dialog.
z/OS Planning for Installation is your primary information source,
though, as Timothy says, and it should point to everything else you
need to look at.
Getting to the first "real" z/OS IPL is the easy part, though. While
some will probably disagree, I don't think it's truly all that difficult.
However, there are a lot of choices involved in setting up a z/OS
system for the first time so that you can make effective use of it. I
will echo what others have said here. Either hire experienced
sysprogs & admins or use contract services with IBM or others. It's
definitely the way to go. Spending more to get started is a wise
investment, yielding dividends in avoiding aggravation, time, and
money later on.
