Once a consortium is awarded with a DB or PPP project, the consortium has to Design, Build, Finance, Operate and/or Maintain the project depending on the specific type of contract (i.e. DB, DBF, DBFO, DBFOM, etc.) including the Detailed Design phase as part of it.

Magnitvde provides the experience of advising clients using the following post-award Detailed Design services:

  • Supervise design teams producing the detailed design of the project (i.e. drawings, quantities and specifications).

  • Manage the project design schedule according to the construction critical path and priorities.

  • Provide design peer reviews proposing innovative solutions in order to increase performance, reduce construction cost and facilitate constructability (ex: reduce traffic management).

  • Review the overall project budget and Bill Of Quantities (BOQ) to optimize the design of items with a higher cost percentage (bridges, embankments, tunnels, foundations, ground treatment, etc.).

  • Allocate design resources according to the project needs and plan them in advance to avoid design delays.

  • Prepare design deviations, developer’s change proposals or design claims to be approved by owners.
