Curation of design and engineering teams
We help the developer define the specialties required, select qualified and mutually compatible professionals, and coordinate the work under direct contracts with the client.
Rigorous team selection and seamless coordination
The client appoints each specialist directly: we help choose the right team for your project and coordinate the work between everyone.
Map of needs and specialties
We identify the engineering disciplines essential to the building’s scale and use, avoiding gaps or overlaps.
Design specifications
We draft clear terms of reference with the scope, the phases set out in Portaria 255/2023, file formats and delivery duties.
Qualifications and legal licensing
We confirm active registration with the professional associations, valid insurance and the licensing required by Lei 31/2009.
Support for direct appointment
We prepare comparative proposal reports and define the technical scope, deadlines and deliverables for each direct contract.
Coordination and shared schedule
We coordinate technical interfaces, information flows and the shared delivery schedule between architecture and engineering.
Deliverable monitoring and closeout
We check the final deliverables against what was contracted, supporting technical validation before fees are settled.
Transparent methodology from brief to handover
A methodical five-stage process, with each specialist appointed directly by the client.
Mandate and map of needs
We set the specialties required, estimate fair market fees and define the rules of the process.
Consultation and qualification of specialists
We consult technicians and firms with proven experience, confirming their legal licensing and availability.
Equalisation and direct appointment
We present a well-founded analysis matrix and provide technical support to the client in directly appointing each specialist.
Coordination and interface management
We organise the coordination meetings, prevent boundary conflicts between designs and manage the delivery schedule.
Mandate closeout and document archiving
We validate the documentary compliance of the deliverables and compile the final project file for the client’s records.
