Project planning for housing companies
A well-prepared project plan supports your housing company in making informed decisions about starting renovation or infill construction. Our experienced experts assess the feasibility of the renovation or construction project, identify the most suitable implementation methods, and provide cost estimates.

A solid project plan supports decision-making
The project planning phase is where we assess the key factors affecting the repair needs of the property, define the goals of the renovation, and explore whether parts of the building could be repurposed – for example, into office space. We also prepare project plans to support decision-making when a housing company is considering infill construction.
A professionally executed project plan ensures that your housing company has the right knowlegedge to make informed decisions, guides further planning in the right direction, and helps keep project costs under control.
In the project plan, we present different implementation options for the renovation or construction project, estimate the costs and required permitting processes, and provide a comprehensive foundation for successful project execution.
"A carefully executed project planning phase can significantly reduce the overall cost of repairs."
Condition surveys as part of our project planning
When renovation is the chosen path, our renovation engineering experts define the necessary condition surveys.
If the project requires it, we also conduct load-bearing capacity assessments of structural elements and evaluate acoustic performance. In cases where asbestos or other hazardous materials are suspected, we carry out the required inspections.
The project plan defines the scope and options for renovation
The repair needs identified in the condition survey can serve as a sufficient basis for initiating the renovation project.
As a result of the project planning phase for renovation or infill construction, we produce a report that may include several implementation options. These alternatives are evaluated in terms of project goals, costs, and initial conditions.
The scope, schedule, costs, and implementation method of the renovation become more precise through needs assessments. In some cases, more detailed condition surveys, investigations, and structural openings are necessary to minimize risks and costs.
