What is General Planning in Industrial Construction?

General planning is an integrative approach in which all phases of a construction project—from planning to completion—are coordinated by a single point of contact. Particularly in industrial construction, such as the development of production and logistics facilities, general planning ensures efficiency. As a general planner, we take responsibility for the entire architecture, engineering, and construction logistics, enabling companies to optimize their resources effectively.

On schedule, cost-efficient, transparent

We take care of compliance with legal regulations, application and authorization processes, technical standards and all safety, quality and sustainability requirements – on time, cost-efficient and transparent. As general planners, we assume responsibility for all aspects of your construction project, including planning, construction and organization. In order to achieve this, we call upon our extensive experience of managing and delivering over 2,400 projects since 1976 across a diverse range of sectors and international markets.

Object planning from the inside out

The principle of planning from the inside out is one of our trademarks: To start, we conduct a thorough analysis of your requirements in order to gain a comprehensive understanding of your needs in terms of logistics, processes, operational value streams and the design and financial parameters of the construction project. Prior to commencing the planning process, it is essential to gain a comprehensive understanding of the procedures that will be carried out in the proposed building and its surrounding area. Based on this understanding, we can provide bespoke solutions for the internal structure and external design, tailored to meet your specific requirements.

Basic evaluation and preliminary planning

In this phase, we collaborate with you to collate all the essential requirements and data for the construction project, and conduct a joint site inspection. On this basis, we collaborate with all relevant specialist planners to develop preliminary designs and plans that align with the desired functionality, economic efficiency, and aesthetic requirements. We clarify the approval requirements, conduct preliminary negotiations and prepare the necessary approval documents and define a schedule for the further planning and implementation steps.

Design planning and approval planning

We translate the functional requirements into concrete design elements of your building project, create floor plans, views and perspectives. At the same time, the technical planning of the construction, supporting structure and building technology is carried out – in close co-operation with you and all other project participants and in compliance with all legal and building regulations. Once all the documents have been compiled, they are submitted for approval in close consultation with the relevant authorities.

Implementation planning

In the implementation planning phase, we define the details of the construction elements, components, building materials, materials and building technology as well as the specifications and qualification requirements. We facilitate collaboration between the various trades and specialised planning teams to ensure seamless coordination. Furthermore, quality and cost control measures are in place. The objective of this planning phase is to produce precise design documents that will form the basis for the tendering, awarding and construction execution phases.

Tendering and awarding

In order to facilitate the tendering and awarding process, we prepare the tender documents, which include detailed service catalogues or functional service descriptions. We then agree on an award strategy that is tailored to your project and obtain offers. We evaluate and compare these to guarantee that your construction project is completed to the highest standards of quality, within the agreed timeframe and budget. We provide comprehensive support throughout the bidding process, including meetings and negotiations, the compilation of all contract documents, award recommendations, and the documentation of the entire awarding process.

Project supervision

In this phase, we oversee the construction process on-site to guarantee that it is completed as planned, meets the technical specifications and quality standards, and remains within the agreed budget. In order to achieve this, we monitor the construction execution process, guarantee the rectification of any defects, coordinate the various companies and trades involved in the construction, ensure that the construction is accepted, and document the progress of the construction work. Our project supervision ends with the handover of the completed building and the documentation of the building acceptance to you as the client.
