Basic Design: Precision Engineering for Project Execution

Following client approval of the Concept Design, our Basic Design phase transforms your vision into actionable, budget-aligned plans. This phase solidifies the foundations of the project, ensuring that all specifications, timelines, and costs are aligned with the objectives set in the Concept Design. The focus of Basic Design is to obtain fixed-price quotes from vendors, contractors, and suppliers, and to define the project supplies and establishes the foundation for procurement and construction—ensuring all stakeholders are aligned.

Why Basic Design Matters

Cost Control: ±10% accurate investment estimates
Risk Reduction: Clear specifications minimize change orders
Efficient Procurement: Enables competitive bidding with precise vendor requirements
Regulatory Readiness: Compliant with GMP, FDA, and ISO standards
