The scheme
A scheme that started at 628 homes. We tested several options before setting a detailed delivery strategy.
The question
Which version of the scheme can actually be built well, and to what programme, before the client commits to it?
What we did
- Compared several versions of the scheme on how buildable each was and how long each would take to build.
- Set out a detailed logistics and programme strategy for the option taken forward.
Why it mattered
Testing buildability and programme alongside the design options meant the client chose a scheme with a delivery plan behind it, not just a layout.
