Civil
Execution held to the same standard as the drawing.
When you need this
You want one party accountable for both the design and what actually gets built.
A design is only as good as what is built. Where clients want one party accountable for both, we take on civil execution — structure, envelope and services — under a documented quality process.
What is included
- Structural design coordination and checking
- Bill of quantities and stage-wise costing
- Contractor and vendor evaluation
- Stage-wise quality checks with photographic record
- Material testing coordination and approvals
- Programme management and progress reporting
- Snagging, handover documentation and defect liability
What is not included
- Land acquisition, legal and title work
- Statutory fees and utility deposits
- Interior fit-out unless engaged for Interiors
- Landscape execution beyond hardscape
Every stage is signed off against the same checklist and photographed before the following trade begins. The record goes to the client, not into a file.
What you receive
Each stage ends in something you hold.
- A bill of quantities you can compare
- A stage-wise cost plan
- A photographic record of every stage
- Material test results
- As-built drawings
- A closed snagging list, signed with you present
Nine stages, in order
- Brief — in your words, written down.
- Site and climate — visited at different times of day.
- Concept — two or three real options.
- Design development — resolved room by room.
- Material — samples in your hand. Signed off.
- Drawings and approvals — tender-ready set.
- Tender — costs you can compare line by line.
- Construction — each stage checked. Signed off.
- Handover — snag list closed with you there. Signed off.
The three in bold are signed off and photographed before the next trade starts.
