WHAT WE TAKE CARE OF
Start with the business the building will support.

Customer & service flows
Plan arrival, customer areas, staff movement, service zones, storage and circulation around the way the business will operate. Consider staffing, equipment and operating procedures alongside the spaces.
Connected design
Coordinate architecture, structural engineering, MEP and fit-out requirements. Bring relevant specialist inputs and applicable permissions coordination into the agreed workflow.
Project delivery

Open the project editionBEFORE WE BEGIN
A few useful answers.
Start with the questions you have. The responsibilities and next steps can be worked through together.
What types of commercial project can I discuss?
Share the proposed business and site with the team. The published portfolio includes Triangle Convention Centre and Syndicate Multiplex Shopping Mall. The first conversation establishes the requirements, specialist inputs and consultancy scope suitable for your project.
Can I bring an existing commercial building?
Yes. Share the current use, drawings, photographs and changes you are considering. The team can discuss the information, technical assessment and coordination needed before an appropriate scope is agreed.
How do consultancy and turnkey delivery differ?
Consultancy responsibilities may include planning, design, engineering and coordination. A turnkey delivery arrangement has its own agreed construction and handover responsibilities. Confirm the scope, appointments, fees and exclusions in the project agreement.
How are the budget and programme discussed?
Share your available budget, priorities and intended programme at the start. The team can discuss the design, coordination and delivery responsibilities needed, along with the decisions, approvals and specialist inputs that affect the work. The scope, fees and project arrangements are agreed before work begins.
What information helps with an initial proposal?
Provide the project location, business type, current stage, available drawings, required spaces and your budget and programme expectations. Clarify whether you need design, engineering, permissions coordination, project management or the complete consultancy.
