GLM to offer Design and Build services
People often ask "why is the process of getting a building built, refurbished or altered so complicated?" GLM has always sought to provide clients with building solutions that best suit their needs. We are finding that a turnkey approach that combines the services of the design consultants and those of the contractor has an increasing appeal. Working with Prime Property Ventures Ltd, GLM have undertaken a number of contractor led Design and Build projects. We are currently working on one that is a Consultant-led project. In the course of 2012 we will be formalising this arrangement into a JV which will provide Design and Build to residential projects including new houses and refurbishment and alteration projects. We will also be expanding it with other trusted contractors to deal with larger projects.
Borders-based Prime Property Ventures Ltd, come from a development background but the current recession has moved them away from speculative work to specialised "conventional" contracting. However, they bring to contracting the "can-do" attitudes of a developer always looking for solutions rather than problems. As such they have delighted customer after customer.
GLM will be pleased to discuss the procurement options for your project. Sometimes it will be appropriate to go down the conventional route of preparing a design and specifications and then getting quotations from a number of contractors. However in some instances the benefits of a package solution will be worth considering.
These include:
• Construction expertise brought to bear at an early point in the design process
• Rapid progress towards a firm price
• Greater certainty of out-turn cost
• Alignment of interest between all members of the construction team
• Faster to get the site works underway
• A hand-picked construction team with a proven client-friendly track record
• A project team that is totally answerable to the client and committed to the success of the project
