While an architect focuses on the creative design, our service is about orchestrating the entire process. We manage the architect, but also integrate the work of engineers, surveyors, and other consultants. We handle all regulatory submissions and liaise with local authorities on your behalf. We ensure that the design isn’t just beautiful, but also practical, compliant, and ready for construction—saving you time and preventing costly errors and delays.

Common questions
-
How does your Project Planning & Design Management service differ from hiring an architect directly?
-
At what stage of the project should we engage your services?The most effective time to engage our services is at the very beginning of a project, right after the feasibility study is complete and you have decided to move forward. By involving us from the initial concept phase, we can ensure that every design decision aligns with regulatory requirements and your overall financial goals, preventing potential issues from arising later in the process.
-
What role do you play in the permit approval process?We act as your dedicated representative, managing the entire permit approval process. This includes preparing and submitting all required plans and documentation, communicating with government officials to address any questions or concerns, and tracking the status of your application. Our proactive approach and deep understanding of the regulatory landscape help to streamline the process, minimizing delays and securing your final building permits as efficiently as possible.
