Where careful planning matters as much as construction

Some projects cannot be treated as a straightforward empty-space fit-out. Existing services, structural alterations, live operations, neighbours, access restrictions and immovable occupation dates can change the risk profile completely.

PSG brings these constraints into the project plan from the start. 

Typical requirements

  • Working in live or partially occupied buildings
  • Phased decant and occupation strategies
  • Structural openings and complex alterations
  • Existing MEP systems and service continuity
  • Landlord approvals and third-party interfaces
  • Restricted access, noise and working hours
  • Fire strategy, building control and CDM coordination
  • Testing and handover while operations continue

Our approach 

We establish how the building and the client need to operate during the works, then develop the logistics, programme, design coordination and procurement strategy around those requirements. The objective is not merely to complete the physical works, but to do so without losing control of safety, cost, programme or business continuity.
