General planning

 

You  want to concentrate your energy  rather upon your key business and not to waste it on construction problems, isn't it?

We know, time and money have high priority. For many customers it is a bore to care about it with having many contractors for their building. Therefore fix-price- orders ready for occupancy have won, in spite of all of their disadvantages. 

In opposite to the traditional planning process especially low-level detail design and inadequately material-quality often become serious problems.  

We know about the needs of our customers. Therefore it is a challenge, offering you a better product, including the essential advantages of both procedures: schedule, expence-control and high-quality :  General planning.

  Focus

 

General planning is determined to the client's aims:

clear regulation, determination and demarcation of the tasks, 

strict division between planning and monitoring performances on the one hand and the execution performances on the other hand, 

dispensation of the principal's side (project-management and programming tasks), 

specialized general coordination by the general planner as your single responsible contracting partner. 

  Advantages

 

Get all designs and plannings from one hand. Nevertheless the planning contents  are exclusively determined by your interests. As your general planner we are absolutely independent from the building contractor. We are responsible only to the client: we are your trustee. Our service includes all consulting, design and the monitoring performances during the realisation phase, especially the required management, coordination and control tasks. So we unburden you effectively. General planning offers you  essential advantages: 

 

independent monitoring and control procedures (quality of construction, technology, function, organization and economic use),

cost controll and appointment 

quality-raising and cost-cutting assignment procedures.

   Task

 

The complex job profile of an architect in Germany encloses not only design.  The organization and the responsible coordination of the planning expiration and construction expiration is traditionally part of it. 

 

Within the planning contract we take over an obligation about all planning and monitoring performances required for the project realization. For all these perfor- mances we are  your exclusive contractor and responsible partner. 

We start performance before beginning of the object design. A preliminary feasibility study gives essential data which can be helpful for negotiations about subvention as well as by the decision about realization, financing and economic use of the project.

    Performance

 

We do and organize all necessary planning for your project:

architectural planning.

engineering for the construction (statics). 

engineering for all the equipment (fresh water, waste water, heating, ventilation, electricity and information technology) .

physics (warmth protection, noise protection, fire protection).

special engineering*,

interior design*,

landscaping*.                                                                                      (* if necessary)

The architects office as general planner states where specialized engineers are de- manded and fixes the performance range. For this purpose we extend the existing competence of the office by supplementary unteragency of specialized planners. So we form a coordinated planning team. We organize the interdisciplinary cooperation and coordination inside. As your trustee we represent your interests opposite the interest of the building entrepreneur.

As a general planner we can offer to you - during the whole period of planning  and realization  - time appointment and expense-controll within the framework of an extensive general management. This way you are relieved from obligations crucially and you need no additional  project supervisor.

 

General planning mainly has four components: 

the architectural performances (object design, object monitoring ), 

the specialized planner performances for which we as a general planner take over responsibility)

management, technical coordination and control tasks, 

additional consult and support. 

   What about the Fee ? 

 

Every general planning order is an individual case. In the performance package of general planning appear the usual architect and engineer fees, as well as a small surcharge (a comparatively low compensation fee for control performances and our liability risk). 

Therefore this is only a little bit more expensive than the usual way of planning. (An approximation on this basis is also possible on request.) 

Therefore you get a lot of advantages. The return on invest will only be a question of short time.
