Project development and consulting

As a MEP design and energy consultant in the project development phase, we focus on understanding and promoting your business. We make sure that project development and planning are managed based on the cost, energy and quality objectives.

Project development phase services support business success

Our key task as project consultants and designers is to understand the customer’s business. During the project development phase, we find the best ways to develop new properties for own use, sale or rental. You will be assisted by our project development team and Finland’s biggest team of experts in energy and environmental solutions. We have experience in international project development projects concerning data centers, for example.

Cost awareness and responsibility are emphasised in the project development phase

In the project development phase, it is important to manage the cost implications of different implementation options. Continuous cost control allows monitoring the development of the costs of a construction project in real time. In the project development phase, it is also a good idea to carefully think about energy and responsibility issues. For example, we investigate the target energy consumption of the property, as well as the possibilities of renewable energy and environmental certification. Carbon footprint calculation can also be started during the project development phase.

Project planning specifies the target level of MEP design

We help you move quickly, but in a controlled manner, from project development to project planning. We compile the necessary baseline data and define the target level of MEP design. The goals can include efficient use of space, flexibility, safety or low carbon emissions.

In Smart Building projects, we make sure that the smart IoT solutions supporting the use of the premises are specified early and no options are excluded. In the project planning phase, we also compare the different implementation options so that we can innovatively maximise the floor space sold, for instance.

From project development to commissioning with determined steps

MEP design solutions selected at the right accuracy in project development reduce surprises in the subsequent stages of the construction project. It is also important to ensure that the technical building systems function correctly after the completion of the building. Here, we can help with our in-use property operational assurance services.
