OUR BUILDING PROCESS

A Clear Process
From Idea To Handover.

Building a property involves several connected decisions. A structured process helps organize what should happen first, what follows next and how each stage contributes to the completed building.

CDECCONSULT supports the building journey through planning, construction coordination, project management and relevant on ground oversight according to the approved project scope.

CONNECTED STAGES One Building Journey
FROM START TO FINISH

Build In The
Right Sequence.

Construction works best when the project is organized around a sequence rather than approached as disconnected activities.

The exact requirements may differ by property, location and project, but the broader journey can be structured around several important stages.

01
PROPERTY

Start With The Land

Understand the property on which the project is intended to take place.

02
DESIGN

Develop The Building Plan

Translate the project vision into appropriate design information.

03
PREPARATION

Address Requirements

Prepare relevant approvals, quantities and construction information.

04
EXECUTION

Move Into Construction

Begin the physical stages that transform the project into a building.

Construction drawings and project planning
DESIGN Turn The Vision Into Information
DESIGN & DRAWINGS

Before You Build,
Understand What You Are Building.

Construction needs clear project information before full physical execution begins.

Design and construction drawings help communicate the intended building and provide important information for project preparation and subsequent work.

01

Define The Building Clarify the intended property and project direction.

02

Develop Relevant Plans Translate the building idea into appropriate project information.

03

Review The Information Understand what the drawings communicate before execution.

04

Prepare For The Next Stage Use the project information to support further preparation.

PROJECT PREPARATION

Understand The
Work Before Execution.

Construction preparation should create a clearer understanding of what the project requires.

Relevant project information and a bill of quantities can help organize the proposed construction work, materials and quantities within the appropriate professional scope.

OUR SIX STEP PROCESS

The Journey From
Property To Handover.

Explore the six broad stages used to explain the building journey from initial property considerations through physical construction.

STEP 01

Start With The Property.

The building journey begins with the land or property intended for development. Appropriate property and professional checks should be carried out where required.

STEP 02

Design The Building.

Translate the project vision into relevant architectural and project information that can guide subsequent preparation.

STEP 03

Address Required Approvals.

Relevant building approvals and regulatory requirements should be addressed according to the project and applicable location.

STEP 04

Prepare The BOQ.

A bill of quantities can help organize construction requirements and provide a clearer framework for the proposed work.

STEP 05

Move Into Construction.

Physical execution progresses through foundation, superstructure, roofing, building services, finishes and related works.

STEP 06

Complete & Handover.

Remaining work and project closeout move the property toward completion and handover according to the agreed scope.

PLANNING Understand The Building Before Execution
FROM DESIGN TO BUILD

Give The Project
A Clearer Direction.

The more clearly the project is understood before execution, the easier it becomes to coordinate subsequent activities.

Plans, project models and construction information can help different participants understand the intended direction of the building and how their activities fit into the wider process.

01 Visualize
02 Review
03 Coordinate
04 Execute
DURING CONSTRUCTION

Planning Continues
On The Site.

Once construction begins, coordination and communication remain important throughout the physical building stages.

Where included in the approved engagement, CDECCONSULT can support relevant on ground project oversight and coordination.

Construction site supervision and project consultation
SITE Coordination During Construction
01
COORDINATE

Site Activity

Help keep relevant site activities connected to the project direction.

02
REVIEW

Project Progress

Maintain greater visibility over relevant construction activity.

03
COMMUNICATE

Clearer Updates

Support relevant communication around ongoing project activity.

04
MOVE FORWARD

Next Stage

Keep current construction activity connected to what needs to happen next.

CONSTRUCTION STAGES

From Foundation To Finish.

Once physical construction begins, the building progresses through several connected stages before reaching completion.

01 GROUND Site Mobilization & Foundation
02 STRUCTURE Walls & Superstructure
03 ROOF Roofing
04 SERVICES Mechanical & Electrical
05 INTERIOR Internal Finishes
06 COMPLETE External Works & Handover
