Helping you get the best from your project
If you’re planning a new project, we can help you deliver good design and value-for-money as well as public value. While we can help at any stage, early involvement strengthens delivery of all three.
We can help you detail the challenge, develop your project brief and budget for a funding bid or design competition, and support your procurement and design team selection processes, as well as upskill your in-house team to manage the project.
We work with commissioners, local authorities, charitable bodies, public sector organisations, community groups, investors and developers to steer the design process to excellent delivery of any type of built environment projects, all with sustainable placemaking at their centre.
The long-term success of any project depends upon upfront engagement. We can facilitate workshops that add value and help save you time and costly changes at a later stage.
