No matter whether it's a new build, a conversion/refurbishment or rental premises: the success of your infrastructure project crucially depends on identifying, drilling down and clearly formulating your requirements. We conduct an in-depth study of your organisation, your corporate culture and your strategic business focus that allows us to draw up a structured, full and concise summary of your requirements using understandable terminology.
With classic office premises we look at the functional space of the offices themselves, but also consider the special-use areas that are relevant for the functioning of the building. With special-purpose buildings such as schools, cultural premises or mixed-use properties the focus shifts accordingly.
We guide your organisation through the requirements planning process following a structured procedure and ensure that your requirements are fully, consistently and transparently documented with an eye to future developments. The outcome of our participatory process is a user requirements specification for the information of architects, planners, landlords and your internal corporate bodies which clearly and unambiguously describes your needs as a client, tenant and user and hence the requirements the premises have to meet in order for your core business to run smoothly.
The complete user requirements specification contains information about usage of all the various areas, office types, layouts, floor plans and functional relationships, plus the required qualities of individual structural elements, furnishings, fixtures & fittings – in some cases along with the relevant cost budget. The specifications are continuously updated and defined in increasing detail as your project progresses.
