Design and Project Management – Retail Unit to Office.

Commercial Workspace Consultants Ltd were tasked with a ‘start to finish’ process for a valued client to expand their regional business premises. We helped with:

• Initial site survey and suitability evaluation

• Measured survey of core build and services locations

• Guide price evaluation of strip out/disposal of previous tenants’ fixtures and fittings for the landlord

• Entire design process using AutoCad and 3d Modelling – walls, ceiling, flooring, furniture, kitchen, toilets, M+E, data and AV

• Project cost evaluation at component level

Once the design and project cost was frozen, CWC Ltd were asked to project manage the build, this included:

• Site set up, welfare and health and safety measures

• Full plans application to building control and liaison to completion

• Procurement of materials and labour financed by the client

• Price negotiation with suppliers and value engineering

• Site visits to ensure safety and quality standards were being met

• Project sequencing, implementation and adherence

• Cost control

• Test, commission and certification witnessing

• Snagging and sign off

• Submission of O+M Manual

The client was very happy with the end result and has saved in excess of 20% of the cost of a contractor based design and build project.
