Approach
From the first question to the second site.
A relocatable building has a longer life than its first contract. Our approach covers both: getting the building in use on time, and planning what happens after.
Seven phases
What happens, and roughly when.
Durations are indicative ranges for this concept. They depend on the permit procedure, tender procedure and production capacity at the time.
Feasibility call
Site, programme, term and permit route in one conversation. You leave with an indicative scope and the open questions.
Programme of requirements
Classrooms, staff facilities, energy level and indoor-climate ambition, written down so it can serve a tender or a direct award.
Tender or direct award
For larger contracts most boards and municipalities run a tender. We supply drawings, specifications and planning in the requested format; the procedure determines the timing.
Permit & engineering
Drawings and calculations for a temporary or permanent permit, foundation design after a soil survey, and connections to utilities.
Production
Modules are built in the factory while the site is prepared. Inspection moments are agreed in advance.
Assembly & handover
Foundation, placing, connecting and finishing. Handover with documentation, instruction and a maintenance plan.
Use, extend, relocate
Maintenance during use. At the end of the term: extend, buy out, add modules, or dismantle and relocate.
Who is involved
Several decision makers, one shared file.
The school board or housing coordinator commissions, the municipality is often responsible for funding and the permit, a procurement adviser runs the tender, and the school director knows how the building will be used. The feasibility summary is written so each of them can read it.
Begin at step one.
The feasibility call is free of obligation in this concept – and nothing is sent.
