STRATEGIC BRIEF- THE ESSENTIAL FIRST STEP BEFORE YOU COMMENCE DESIGN WORK. 

This is the essential first step you must complete before commencing design work. The briefing and pre-design phases are critical as they provide absolute clarity about outcomes. This will minimise the impact of future design changes on scope, specifications, time and budget during project development. During this ‘Discovery’ stage we will advise you on how you can future proof your estate, club or school. We look at your entire site and review how to maximise development, enhance biodiversity and make sure you are ready for challenges including climate change, energy requirements, sustainability and changes to statutory regulations. We make sure the BIM model of your building is co-ordinated with the engineering team to help you with maintenance in the future. We will scenario plan the future to make sure your facilities are world class.
