Project & Programme Success
Improve design team management
A requisite of project success is effective coordination and management of the design team to define the design in a manner that allows a contractor to build the building and define any final elements with its own subcontractors. Our design management experts will enable you to integrate design, procurement, on-site logistics and other considerations in balance with construction requirements.
Strengthen collaboration on projects
Design integration meetings provide designers with the opportunity to collaborate with other designers, stakeholders and all other disciplines that are involved in their project to achieve the best outcomes. RLB experts act as the intermediary between designers and contractors to ensure that the design is effectively translated into construction, contributing to a successful handover of the project.
Control the design process
Robust control over the design process will avoid redesign, on-site retrofits and compromises, all of which can incur cost premiums and impact schedules. Our experts can help you maintain a rigorous level of quality control on your projects through our design management procedures. We can implement regular structured reviews, validate plans, manage interfaces, conduct design reviews and manage acceptance processes.
Monitor quality and progress
Maintaining a clear understanding of a project’s quality and progress facilitates the tracking of any issues and the reporting of them for further learning in the future. With our expertise in reviewing and validating inspections and commissioning, we can provide the support needed to ensure your project has a smooth handover and closeout.
