DEVELOPERS

During the early stages of a project, Consultant design teams, can inadvertently, develop a Projects design in isolation and constraints such as buildability, site conditions, resource availability and current market pressures are not normally considered, but have a high-cost and programme impact.

Typically a project is ready for tender, a Development Approval has been granted, pre-sales and/or tenants have been secured, commitments to Financial Partners have been made and the Projects design is effectively locked in.

It has been our experience that uneconomical and difficult to construct Project designs have been developed with limited opportunities to amend without substantive risks of delaying a project due to likely resubmissions to the Approving Authority (section 4.55 etc).

Recent legislation amendments, particularly in the Residential sector, has seen major behavioral changes from Private Certifiers and Designers, requiring Initial CC documentation to be precisely consistent with the final constructed form.

The combination of risks associated with Approvals, Legislation and Delays to programme means that the project proceeds with non retrievable and embedded lost value.

Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) is a form of contracting that should address these risks, however, it would seem that there is a consensus amongst Developers that the value derived from an ECI engagement has not been realised due to trust with the Contractor being diminished as separate agendas emerge during the ECI engagement.

All Rise Projects has been established to prevent this from happening. We strive to provide you with the highest possible return on your investment.

The key All Rise Projects point of difference is your agenda is our agenda and a Best for Project outcome is the result. Our team has the capacity, experience and flexibility to tailor a solution to meet your needs. We are independent and work for your best interest.

Whether this is a long term, short term, daily or hourly engagement, we can structure a proposal that meets your needs and budget.
