whY Do Create

DO Create will assume the roles of Principal Designer and Principal Contractor for your office fit out or refurbishment project. We will take on the responsibilities and the liabilities on your behalf and make sure that your project is delivered safely and that the documentation and working practices meet all the necessary standards.

DO Create will charge for the services we provide and show the cost of everything we do. From space planning and producing designs to fulfilling our obligations under CDM 2015, you will know what you are paying for. We believe in transparency so you know what you are getting and what it costs.

Many Design and Build companies will offer services at no charge, promising to do the design and take care of the CDM 2015 regulations without you knowing exactly what you are paying for. These companies have all the same costs as DO Create and so they are hiding those costs in the profit they make on the delivery of the project. They will provide all of the goods and labour directly and make their profit in marking up the cost. You will not be able to influence the project once you have signed on the dotted line and you will have to work with their suppliers.

DO Create will project manage the delivery of your project and will work with either suppliers recommended by us or suppliers you want to work with. There are many situations where it makes sense to work with a supplier who has some experience of either your building or with working with you as their customer. Why would you take the risk of working with a different supplier when you already have confidence in the one you know?

DO Create will use our knowledge and experience of the market to ensure you achieve a cost effective solution. One example is the high quality Italian partitioning that we use, where we can provide a high quality product for the same price as a standard product provided by others. If your project includes partitioning, you really need to look at the product provided by DO Create.

DO Create will use our experience of working with many suppliers to ensure the prices you are paying are in line with the market and will project manage the suppliers to ensure they deliver a quality solution.

DO Create will manage the office fit out or refurbishment project through its various stages and ensure all variations are properly accounted for. You will have a budget at the beginning of the project, which will be reviewed weekly. All projects have variations and it is essential that these are properly managed or chaos quickly ensues. We will provide a weekly cost summary showing all the individual work packages and the progress of each and any variations that have either been added or removed throughout the project.
