A scope considered within the whole project.
Architecture translates a brief into a spatial proposal; engineering helps define how it can be built and used. The value lies in bringing these disciplines together early enough for their decisions to support one another. Usta Istanbul considers design coordination alongside construction needs, whether the starting point is an initial idea, a set of drawings or an existing building.
What can the scope include?
- Brief and available document review
- Architectural and technical coordination
- Construction-detail and interface discussions
- Scope and delivery-stage planning
Before the work begins.
The required deliverables depend on the project's location, scale and approval status. Locally regulated services must be carried out or approved by appropriately authorised professionals. International proposals identify the intended role, document standards, local interfaces and what is included in the design or coordination package.
Can you review an existing project before an offer?
You can share the available drawings and a brief describing your objective. The next step is to define what review is needed, who is responsible for each discipline and whether site or specialist investigation is required.
