New-build advice — Building consultant — Professionals
New-build advice suits providers able to structure a brief and identify missing site evidence. They should distinguish feasibility assumptions from verified facts and make design-team responsibilities explicit instead of presenting a generic package as ready for construction.
Service scope
Early advisory work for a proposed new building, connecting the client’s use requirements with site information, design-team needs and project stages. It helps establish feasibility questions and a brief without promising that the site or proposal will be approved.
What is normally included
- Client brief development
- Site-information and constraint review
- Design-team and project-stage advice
What is not included
- Automatic planning or building approval
- A completed architectural or engineering design
Qualification checks
- Identify site and commissioning authority
- Confirm intended use
- Review available surveys and constraints
- Define specialist design appointments
- Agree feasibility outputs and decision stages
Quote guidance
Set out the initial feasibility and briefing fee, the number of options and the meetings included. Keep surveys, applications and detailed design separately identifiable so the client can commission each stage with its assumptions visible.
Lead risks
- Premature construction estimates may be treated as fixed offers
- Utility and site information may arrive after the initial advice
