It is during this time when the
greatest opportunity exists to implement decisions that have the
most influence on the project's performance. Effort invested "up
front" has the greatest potential to save money and time on a
project.
A guiding philosophy of Signal
Management Group's Project Planning service is the establishment of
a clear "Project Strategy" that divides the project into a
series of logical phases with clearly identified "hold points".
This methodology minimises the cost
exposure for our clients and focuses on developing the appropriate
information to enable timely decisions as to how to progress the
project.
This is combined with an early
rigorous testing of projects for physical, functional, legal and
financial viability to ensure our clients project and business
objectives will be achieved.
Signal's Project Planning typically
involves working closely with clients to develop their brief and
managing the engagement of designers for initial "concept" design
work to illustrate the function and form of the project.
Preliminary cost estimates and cashflow projections are prepared
together with analysis of programme options and investigation of
Resource Consent and Building Consent requirements.
When the project is approved for
construction Signal's Project and
Construction Management service manages the detailed design,
tendering, construction and commissioning of the project.
