Abstract
Let P and Q be bounded posets. In this note, a lemma is introduced tha t provides a set of sufficient conditions for the proper part of P bei ng homotopy equivalent to the suspension of the proper part of Q. An a pplication of this lemma is a unified proof of the sphericity of the h igher Bruhat orders under both inclusion order (which is a known resul t and single step inclusion order (which was not known so far).
