ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
Planning Services
We provide a focused, end-to-end planning service for residential and small-scale development projects, guiding clients from initial feasibility through to successful consent. Our approach combines commercial awareness with deep technical expertise, ensuring proposals are strategically positioned to secure approval while protecting programme and value. Services include site appraisals, pre-application advice, planning strategy, full application preparation and coordination of consultants, design statements, and ongoing liaison with the Local Planning Authority. Every submission is structured to be clear, compliant, and defensible — reducing risk, avoiding delay, and maximising the probability of approval.
OUR SERVICES
Developer Consultancy & Technical Support
Technical Management Services
We provide specialist Developer Consultancy and Technical Support to SME developers who do not have the in-house resource to maintain a dedicated technical team. Acting as your outsourced Technical team, we manage and coordinate the full design detailed design process.
Services include consultant appointment and management, design risk reviews, planning-to-construction technical oversight, Building Regulations strategy, Gateway support under the Building Safety Act, and structured package reviews.
Our role is to protect your scheme technically and commercially, identify risks early, and drive the design team to deliver coordinated, compliant, and construction-ready information — without the fixed overhead of a permanent internal team.
OUR SERVICES
BUILDING SAFETY ACT
Consultancy Services
We provide structured, end-to-end support in navigating the requirements of the Building Safety Act 2022, particularly for Higher-Risk Buildings. Our service covers Gateway 2 and Gateway 3 submissions, design compliance reviews, dutyholder advisory (Client, Principal Designer, Principal Contractor), competence alignment, and golden thread strategy. We assist in preparing compliant design information, coordinating consultants to meet statutory obligations, and implementing robust change control procedures. Our focus is to de-risk the approval process, avoid regulatory rejection, and ensure that projects are technically defensible, audit-ready, and aligned with Building Safety Regulator expectations from planning through to completion and occupation.
