Acquisition & design

Rolls of architectural plans

Our team is highly experienced in assessing areas for the acquisition of the best site location and producing designs through the acquisition and design lifecycle against client scope – from Kick Off Visit (KOV) selection through to detailed design completion and handover to client build teams.

Our experienced, multi-skilled acquisition and design team has knowledge across a wide variety of sectors.

Our in-house expertise allows us to provide a complete acquisition and design service tailored to meet your business needs. Using the latest AutoCAD software, digital twin technology, and structural design tools, we drive quality and performance without compromising safety — while keeping you continuously updated with industry-leading reporting platforms.

Whether your project requires digital capture for digital twin enablement, architectural design, civil or structural engineering, infrastructure planning, or traffic analysis, we are involved at every stage — from pre-selection and feasibility through to detailed design and as-built drawings.

Collaboration is key to our success. All disciplines work closely together — from the acquisition surveyor who selects the site options, to the pre-MSV engineer and the initial surveyor. These professionals collaborate throughout the instruction phase to meet the client’s exact project requirements.

We prioritise cost considerations in all our instructions, using a broad range of options before selecting the most appropriate solution. We bring a fresh approach to ensure the maximum amount of pre-information is gathered before making informed, data-driven decisions that best suit our customers’ needs.

As a SafeContractor accredited organisation, we operate with a strong focus on health and safety across all aspects of our services. Our teams are also well-versed in the Building Safety Act 2022, ensuring full regulatory compliance and safety assurance across all relevant phases of design and delivery.
