Design, Planning & Pre-Construction
Many clients know what they want to build but not where to begin. Chiltern helps take a project from concept towards construction by coordinating access to architects, planning consultants, structural engineers and other specialist consultants, so buildability, cost and sequencing are considered during design rather than discovered on site.
01Scope
Who and what we coordinate
Looking at a design through a construction manager's eyes early means problems are solved on paper, where they are cheap, rather than on site, where they are not.

02Approach
Concept to construction
01
Concept
What you want to achieve, the site or property, and the budget it needs to work within.
02
Design
The architect develops the scheme, with construction input on buildability and cost.
03
Planning
Where permission is needed, the application is prepared and submitted with the planning consultant.
04
Technical coordination
Structural and specialist information coordinated into a design that can be built.
05
Costing
The scheme priced and tested against the budget before commitments are made.
06
Construction
A properly planned start on site, with the programme and procurement in place.
