Audit of design documentation and optimization of solutions

Audit of project documentation is a comprehensive assessment service for the optimization of design solutions and assessment of compliance of project documentation and engineering survey results with the requirements of technical regulations. This service is used by both investors and developers to optimize the timeframes and cost of work of subcontractors.

In real-life conditions, an audit of project documentation is required for the following reasons:<br>

Evaluation of project documentation compliance, identification of deficiencies and errors before acceptance by the Client;
Optimization of the project’s technical solutions. Identifying contentious issues and selecting alternative ways to address them;
Financial optimization – seeking more cost-effective solutions, reducing budget expenses, and increasing efficiency without reducing the budget;
Compilation of facts that confirm the correctness of the design decisions made, in the event of litigation.

The audit of project documentation includes a comprehensive set of works carried out by seasoned specialists and it includes:

Verification of the completeness of technical documentation, permits, and other documents;
Assessment of the technical solutions and level of detail in the prepared project documentation package;
Verification of the correctness of the technical solutions used in relation to building codes;
Checking the compliance of technical solutions with applicable laws;
Verification of the accuracy and compliance of budget decisions.

The range of additional services is discussed individually with the client. These services are also selected based on the level of depth required for the review, the focus of the inspection, and whether the project documentation needs to be evaluated from a technical or legal point of view.

Why is an audit of the project documentation important?

A professional assessment provides the client with comprehensive information about the quality of the project documentation, including its compliance with technical specifications, any errors, deficiencies, and violations of regulatory requirements. These issues can pose risks of delays in the construction process and financial losses (such as increased costs in the budget), as well as affect the efficiency of energy, financial, and material resource use.

The expert audit report allows the client to:

Optimize the use of building materials;
Bring the project in line with technical standards in case of any defects;
Reduce the risks associated with the implementation of a low-quality project;
Save resources.

A quality decision optimization process can only be achieved if it is based on a professionally conducted project audit, thereby ensuring the maximum value the client can receive. Decision optimization involves carefully balancing the product’s functions and costs. The client’s savings are achieved by rationally replacing materials and technologies with cheaper alternatives, without compromising the functionality and quality of the solutions.
