Architecture

Partial Service

This type of service is often carried out on smaller Commercial or Residential projects where:-

  1. In a Commercial situation; The Client's brief will be for the Client Team to produce a Design, obtain Planning Approval and other initial consents, tender documentation which would be tendered with the option that the Contractor can build out the scheme using his own team and not taking the Clients Architect, Structural Engineer or M&E consultant forward into his team.

  2. In a Residential situation a partial service would only be used for smaller residential extensions where the Builder would price the works and build the design usually from Stage 4A drawings and sometimes from Stage 3 drawings.

    For a Residential project to proceed in this manner the Client would have to be confident that they could manage the build themselves, or that their Builder and contract team were able to manage the build and provide them with the result they were looking for.
