Documentation & Approvals 6

Documentation approvals

Once the concept has been finalised by the client, a full set of drawings and documents can take 4 – 12 weeks.

Concepts submitted to planning authorities as a Development Application (DA) usually take approx. 5 – 8 months or a Compliant Development (CDC), takes 2 – 3 months, subject to external factors and governing authorities.

Once obtaining approvals, Construction Drawings, a Construction Certificate & Interior Design Construction Drawings are required to proceed to Project Execution phase.

Where the works are considered Exempt Development works, an Interior Concept and Documentation set usually takes approx. 3 – 5 months.

Project Execution 7

project execution

After completing the planning and securing the necessary approvals from relevant authorities or consultants, we assemble a comprehensive design and drawing package. This step is crucial for accurate cost estimation and tendering of the project.

At this stage, the project is transitioned to the GAXA Project Management team or your chosen builder for execution.

We also provide support during the construction phase, a service we refer to as Design Management. Please let us know if you are interested in utilising this service.

Our design packages encompass two on-site visits, one during demolition and another during joinery installation. These visits ensure that the design documentation is faithfully followed.

Our primary goal is to steer the project in line with our client’s vision and best interests throughout the decision-making process.

Procurement Management 9

Procurement Management

Interior procurement is typically overseen and organised by the builder. However, given the current circumstances and extended lead times, GAXA prefers to initiate orders before the builder’s involvement. This approach allows GAXA to effectively manage inventory, address issues, and offer substitutes when necessary. GAXA’s procurement management includes control over procurement processes and tracking of deliveries.

Our Procurement Management services are designed to simplify the complexities of procurement, enabling you to concentrate on your project’s primary goals. This ensures that the essential resources and materials are procured with utmost efficiency and effectiveness.

Alternatively, clients can choose to manage this phase independently, with GAXA providing guidance and support at an hourly rate.

Wrap Up 10

Wrap Up

The successful completion of a project is just as crucial as its beginning and execution. The project wrap-up phase is where all loose ends are addressed, and the ultimate deliverables are transferred to the client. This vital step guarantees not only stakeholder satisfaction but also provides valuable insights for future projects.

The last stage of our process entails us visiting the site to:

  • Conduct a final walkthrough to confirm project completion.
  • Ensure that all aspects align with the client’s expectations.
  • Hand over the completed project to the client.
  • Conduct a post-project review to evaluate project success and client satisfaction.
