Project Management To make projects successful
Strategic planning is the solid foundation in your project and mastering project management.
Our approach is based on systematics, establishing a clear process with defined steps and managing it in a planned manner.
By using this method, we examine the task in detail on technical, permit and fire safety aspects, as well as installation issues.
This involves examining both the technical condition of the building and the task, in the form of the client’s Program of Requirements.
In this way, as many risks as possible are eliminated during construction.
What is project management in a nutshell.
Project management is the practice of planning, organizing and coordinating a specific project to ensure that it is completed within the specified time, budget and scope.
It includes managing resources, creating a project plan, assigning tasks and responsibilities, monitoring progress, and adjusting the project as needed.
Through effective project management, you are able to implement complex projects and achieve their goals in an efficient and effective manner.
Project-based working for is the method for success and results.
We initially conduct extensive surveys of the property, building structure, floors and facilities to accurately identify what needs improvement.
Then, as we integrate these improvements into our design models, we make sure that the entire construction file remains consistent with all the modifications that have been made.
Based on our input, the construction team put together a detailed plan and schedule to remodel the store in just ten days.
In doing so, we consider every risk to ensure that the project plan deadline can be met.
Even with possible delays in the building permit application period, we ensure that there is still sufficient time in the project schedule to apply for and obtain the permit before construction begins.
Project managers are there to ensure a smooth process.
Throughout the process, we closely monitor the schedule to ensure that the design is completed on time.
We understand that applying for building permits is an important part of any construction project, which is why we plan early on applying for them.
The project manager is responsible for transforming the existing store into a new and operational environment while in constant contact with the designer.
The project manager is evaluated on his ability to monitor the budget, meet the schedule and be clear and lucid in communication.
To achieve these goals of the project plan, the project manager must understand the technical challenges and have a realistic budget and solidly developed drawings.
Therefore, we believe that the role we play between the designer and the project manager goes beyond just drawing.
Our added value is mainly in the “engineering” of the design process, where we systematically examine a site in advance, taking into account technical feasibility to best support the designer.
Our experienced approach to successfully managing projects.
However, a formal or over-programmed approach according to “the project manager’s handbook” is not appropriate for working in retail construction.
That probably feels odd to stakeholders and can be delaying.
We think a structured approach is important, but we also look at how to be flexible in dealing with unforeseen circumstances.
In retail, the focus is that everything is done right the first time, which is why we don’t take risks by deviating from our approach.
After all, there is one chance to get it right.
Retail project management requires a fast pace, where quick decision-making is key.
That’s why our project managers have a short line to our designers and technicians, so they can quickly come up with solutions to challenging situations.
We offer several options and solutions, all including a cost estimate, so our clients can decide quickly.
This minimizes the percentage of missed deadlines and wasted money and keeps frustration, stress and dissatisfaction away from the project manager and operations team.
Opening a store is an important moment for our customers, with much invested in good retail design.
Ultimately, it’s all about the customer’s experience, which is why we take protecting their brand experience very seriously.
The power of our ironclad project planning and execution in practice.
Our 3D measurements allow us to determine locations quickly and precisely and then process them into a 3D model, requiring only one visit.
Through the generated point cloud, modeled to 3 mm accuracy, all dimensions and measurements can be determined.
Our models are created with Autodesk Revit and Navisworks, then we can use these models to detect and resolve clashes during the design process, preventing construction errors.
Through the model we extract all the necessary drawings and quantities, with which the estimate or tender can be made.
Here, remember that it is very important to see the value of retail engineering from the customer’s perspective, as returns can be made on the investment in good retail design.
In addition, a good cost estimate ensures that the design budget can be met in execution without financial risk and missed deadlines.
The captain of your ship.
We want to emphasize it again:
The role of a project manager is essential to the success of a project.
They are basically the captain of the ship, making sure everything runs smoothly and everyone stays on course.
Without a good project manager, things can quickly get out of hand.
