Services...
Conceptual Design & Space Planning
We will provide a space plan based on preliminary ideas, needs and
functions
of our clients’ existing environment, expansion space, and relocation space.
Field Verification & As-Builts
ADI will field measure and accurately document the current or existing
conditions of any building. This service includes a site visit, measurement
of the space, and an updated CAD drawing reflecting the new information
for our clients’ records.
Preliminary Pricing Plans
After a space plan is created, we will add basic notes and information
necessary
for a contractor to provide a preliminary budget. This service can ensure
that the design is on track with the client’s proposed budget.
Final Pricing Plans
This set of drawings is similar in concept to the preliminary pricing
plans,
only more specific information and notes are applied to the space plan. Final
pricing plans usually include such information as proposed finishes, new
placement of electrical outlets, new partitions, partitions to be removed, and
proposed lighting fixtures. Also included is any specialty information essential
in providing an accurate, final budget for the client.
Bid Analysis & Review
During the pricing phase, three contractors typically bid the project.
ADI
will review and analyze each bid to assure uniformity and consistency within
the bids. The bids are also evaluated against the pricing plans to determine
that all information was captured.
Construction Documents
ADI will create a set of documents that illustrate the entire design
project. These documents will provide the contractor with detailed information
in order to construct the new design layout. Documents will include an
architectural plan with dimensions and new layout, an electrical plan indicating
new and existing outlets, a reflected ceiling plan with lighting layout,
emergency lighting and exit lighting, a finish plan including all finishes and
materials, and any detail drawings such as elevations/sections for specialty
items and cabinetry. Construction Documents (CD’s) are the final set of drawings
in the design process and are the drawings used to obtain a building permit.
Therefore, these drawings are legal documents complying with all local and
national building codes and safety regulations.
Construction Administration
We will provide management of the construction process to ensure that the
contractor is adhering to the construction drawings and overall design intent.
Weekly site visits are completed to track progress and answer any questions the
contractor may have. Site visits are crucial in supervising the construction
schedule and identifying that the project is on schedule. A punch list will be
provided to the owner, tenant and contractor.
Coordination of Other Trades
We will coordinate the construction drawings with engineers so that
engineering disciplines can create mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and/or
structural drawings based upon the design intent.
Selection of Furniture, Fixtures & Artwork
ADI will aide our clients in the selection of furniture, fixtures and
artwork. We have a wide variety of resources to choose from. We will
research and select products to enhance the overall design theme.
