The pre-contract phase is the preparation stage. This is when ideas form about the project and it is described in theoretical terms. It is also when intentions are solidified and its interpretations take shape.

Pre Contract Services are often called a feasibility study or pre-design studies. Clients sometimes do not understand the importance of pre-design planning and want to jump right into the design. It is often more prudent to start with analysis and planning before architectural design. That said, pre-design services can begin at any point. Using a collaborative, consensus building, and holistic approach to every project, our team will work closely with you to identify the overall project vision, goals, and requirements.

As your professional representative, our services go far beyond the typical construction documents and project specifications that are required for a building permit.

Based on the feasibility study and subsequent data collection, the following are the phases of the process emphasized;

Survey Phase: This is when the project team collects survey information for the project. It may include contributions and basic options from all stakeholders regarding the feasibility of the project. This information can form a design brief around ideas provided by the client.

Outline / Concept Phase: The project team creates a concept based on the design brief requirements and provides an outline that includes input from relevant parties and authorities.

Schematic Phase: This phase is when the project team shapes the agreed upon idea into a working proposition, including submission to the applicable authorities.

Detail Design Phase: During this phase, the project team has fully developed the idea for the project, including specialist design work for structures, electrical, plumbing and HVAC installations and other required services, enabling the works quantifiable and biddable.

Construction Information: The project team prepares detailed working drawings and specifications that define all aspects of the project. The project team will also prepare the bill of quantities, including measurements for materials for the project.

Tender Action & Evaluation: This is when tender documents are prepared, tenders are sought from selected contractors and contract negotiation is undertaken.

Post Contract Consultancy Services means further development work undertaken after drawings have been certified by another consultant. These services are taken up on the already certified design, wherein the appointed consultants’ service term ended and client intents to engage another consultant for betterment of the project in terms of value engineering and subsequently act as an Architect of Record & Supervision Consultant.

Post Contract Consultancy Services may include, but not limited to, meetings, construction assistance, plans revisions, shop drawing review, survey services, as-built drawings review, and load ratings.

Post Contract Consultancy Services typically begin immediately following completion of Construction Documents, although work on some services included may actually be started earlier. During the Post-Design Services phase, NEO provides ongoing administration, coordination and supervision of the construction and close-out phases.

We work closely with the client’s project staff, as well as with representatives of the project’s contractor; to coordinate the project construction process and subsequent completion of its components in an efficient and timely manner.

Our dedicated team supervises and monitors the project’s progress in terms of technical and contractual aspects. We assist our clients with technical supervision of construction, evaluation of contractors and subcontractors, project progress review and tracking and reporting in terms of financial, safety, quality control along-with certification of contractor payment and issuance of completion certificates to the authority.

Following contractual award, the project cost delivery requires the experience and contractual knowledge of a capable team with the skills and resources to complete the project to its successful conclusion. NEO achieves significant results and delivers developments of all contract sizes throughout the construction industry, from local builders to major contractors.

Cost reconciliation and forecasting: Preparing statements of estimated ultimate cost periodically throughout the duration of the contract. Continuously collaborating with all members of the design team to monitor costs throughout the construction period.

Valuation preparations and cost control: Valuing the work in progress on site and recommending amounts of interim payments.

Valuation of variations: Advising on the approximate cost effect of variations under consideration.

Re-measurement exercises: Measuring and preparing bills of variations to the contract and pricing and agreeing on the amounts of extras and savings with the contractor.

Extension of time claims & Examining, evaluating and negotiating the settlement of any contractual disputes.

Our project management services cover the whole project, from inception to completion. We treat each project as unique and we maintain momentum, which we see as two of the keys to project success.

At the behest of the client, we undertake and carry out structural investigations using several highly specialist and standard techniques, depending on the structure. We start our process through a visual observation and subsequently analyze the outcomes to recommend a structural investigation to be carried-out by the specialists. The investigation of the elements, such as structural condition, detail, concrete assessment and material testing, is taken-up for further analysis to ascertain the condition of the building.

Based on the reports from laboratory and non-laboratory assessments, our structural engineers provide a detailed report on the condition and its expected remedial measures. These remedial measures and their processes increase the longevity of the building life and its occupancy.

Subsequently, we also carry out an investigation of soil and its analysis, which is a pre-requisite prior commencement of structural design.
