Working with developers

A build partner for small developers. We run the preconstruction and deliver the build on your schemes, so you can take on more sites without adding to your team.

Your build partner

We carry out preconstruction management for a fixed fee, then take the build completely off your hands.

We have spent seven years on the developer side, on homes from £1.5M and schemes over £12M GDV, so we know what a developer needs from the build.

How a project runs

01

Project Readiness Roadmap

We review the drawings and planning permission and tell you what is missing, what it should cost and how long it should take. Free for our next five clients, then £400.

02

Preconstruction

We work alongside your architect to progress the design, and with you to settle the specification. That way all the pre-tender information is complete and the long lead items are moving, so we can reach cost certainty.

03

Cost certainty

Once preconstruction is complete, a chartered quantity surveyor prices the complete design, so you know the budget before anything is committed on site. If the budget comes in high, we carry out a round of value engineering on the design to bring the cost to where it needs to be.

04

Mobilisation

Once the budget is agreed, and while we set up the site, we push all the scopes of works and tenders out to the key subcontractors before we are too far along on site. It gives a second check against the QS budget while adjustments can still be made.

05

Construction

We deliver your build to our standard, with full visibility of the programme and a live budget throughout, so you always know where the scheme stands.
