24.01.2022 The client brief is traditionally the first step in the design process. Typically, a brief will include a description of the buildings functionality and purpose, how many people it needs to accommodate for, and what internal environments need to be achieved. This sophisticated, yet simple document has undergone consultation with the various stakeholders and provides the foundation for all great projects. In todays market this process is rarely followed. ... The Architect will often return to the client with a conceptual sketch plan, and suddenly they are off and running. Before you begin the design process, we recommend the assistance of an industry professional to help develop and refine your client brief. This will mitigate design oversights throughout the project, and further ensure desired end outcomes are achieved.

23.01.2022 On this Black Friday, we are incredibly excited for the release of our revolutionary patented 'Variation Detector STR 1000'. This amazing technology allows you to simply wave a light over the top of any drawing to find the variations that reside in it. As we all know, variations are the bugbear of any project. Now with the STR 1000, you can mitigate hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars on any project! Of course you would expect to pay an exorbitant amount of mone...y for such advance technology, but get yours today for a mere $49,999.00 ex GST (50% off). **Disclaimer: this is not a real product. To mitigate variations or budgetary issues on any project please engage a suitably qualified project manager.

23.01.2022 So you have a great idea You’ve undertaken a feasibility study and your numbers stack up!........So the next move is to appoint a builder, sit back, and wait for the profits right? The construction process includes many high pressure, timely, and large decisions that will change the course of your project. One decision is to consider obtaining advise on whether your feasibility study stacks up in the first place. A peer review on this critical element is highly encouraged t...o verify your initial numbers. Furthermore, the completeness of documentation used to undertake feasibility studies must be considered, as they will play a role to mitigate potential cost variations. Documentation /elements to be considered are those that will vary for each project including but not limited to; level of demolition, staging of the works, asbestos, contamination, ground conditions, structure, level of finish etc. Our Tip: Assemble a team that has the adequate knowledge to support you and your goals. Ensure you get along with them. Choose a team that has no other agenda but to give you the best service that can be offered.

14.01.2022 What is the correct project process? There are so many approaches and nuances within each of the different project phases.

To navigate the procurement landscape and get your project rolling, the most guaranteed approach is to ensure you know what you want!... If you want a complete design with an accurate response from the market with minimal variations, one option is to consider a complete lump-sum service without any ‘Design and Construct’ elements.

03.01.2022 One Architect is not the same as the next. Some are fantastic at concepts and developing the beauty of the built environment. Others are exceptional at acknowledging the buildings functionality and fitness for purpose. There are also firms that are specialists in undertaking coordination, and the detailed design which translates into significantly mitigating the risk of construction variations. Before selecting the Architect, be sure to make a considered decision by doing o...ne, or all of the following: Ask several other building professionals (i.e. Engineers, Builders, Cost planners or Project Managers) their opinion on the right Architect for your project. Ask your candidates to disclose any joint ventures that they have a financial interest in. Find the Architects previous client base and ask them about their experience in terms of their ability to work to a brief, their ability to work to deadlines, and the projects financial outcome.
