03. Design Development

The next step is to translate all the collected information and design intent into drawings. We will continue to work with you to further flesh out the details of the project:

Phase one

  • mechanical / electrical / plumbing design
  • civil design
  • final system selection & design
  • skin/facade cost structure
  • initial finish material selection
  • 50-75% total drawings
  • planning & zoning
  • value engineering
  • initial subcontractor cost & design input
  • bidders list
  • update specs / budget / schedule
  • initial logistics plan

Phase two

  • permit review & issuance
  • 75-90% total drawings
  • hard bid
  • continued value engineering
  • construction loan
  • long lead time material
  • update specs / budget / schedule
  • detailed logistics plan
  • guaranteed maximum price
  • sign contract
  • coordination with municipality/neighbors

In the end, we will have crafted a final design, budget and schedule, and can move into the construction phase.
