How we deliver
Every NASH appointment follows the same disciplined path: assess properly, price transparently, secure approvals before mobilising, and control the works until they are documented and handed over. Eight steps, each with a defined output for the client.
Eight steps from enquiry to handover
Initial Consultation
We start with a structured conversation about the project: objectives, location, budget expectations, timeline, and constraints. You receive an honest early view of feasibility, the delivery route that fits - PMC, fit-out contract, design & build, or a specialist package - and the information we need to progress.
Site & Scope Assessment
We visit the property and assess the existing condition, services, access, and any landlord or building constraints. The output is a documented scope definition: what the works actually involve, what risks exist, and what surveys or investigations are needed before pricing can be relied on.
Design & Technical Review
Existing designs are reviewed for buildability, code compliance, and coordination gaps; where design is part of our appointment, it is developed to a technical standard that can be approved, priced, and built. You receive a clear record of design issues resolved before they become site problems.
Budget & Commercial Proposal
Pricing is built from measured quantities and defined scope, not allowances that unravel later. You receive a structured commercial proposal - scope, exclusions, programme, and payment terms stated plainly - so the comparison with any alternative is on equal, transparent terms.
Approvals & Pre-Construction
Landlord submissions, authority approvals, and permits are prepared and tracked as a managed workstream, alongside method statements and the construction programme. Works do not mobilise until the approvals position is secure - the discipline that protects the programme most.
Procurement & Mobilisation
Materials, subcontract packages, and long-lead items are procured against the approved specification and programme, with lead times managed before they become critical. Site setup, protection, and logistics are completed so the works start in a controlled state on day one.
Construction & Project Control
The works are executed under active programme, quality, and cost control: progress measured against the programme, inspections held at defined stages, and variations documented and priced before execution. You receive regular, factual reporting - progress, cost position, and issues requiring decisions.
Testing, Handover & Close-Out
Systems are tested and commissioned, snags are recorded and cleared against an agreed list, and the project is handed over with its documentation: as-built records, approvals and certificates, warranties, and operation and maintenance information. The final account is closed formally - no loose ends.
How the process adapts
The eight steps are constant; the shape of our role changes with the appointment. What you engage NASH to be determines who executes, who reports, and how the commercial framework is structured.
PMC appointments
NASH acts as your representative and manages the consultants and contractors delivering the works. The process gains formal weight: tender management run on your behalf, structured reporting cycles, independent review of contractor claims and payment applications, and decisions documented for your records.
Main fit-out contracts
NASH executes the works as your contractor, with full site management, direct control of trades and subcontract packages, and single-point responsibility for programme, quality, and safety on site. The commercial proposal, variations, and final account sit under one contract with us.
Refurbishment projects
Existing buildings demand more investigation up front: condition surveys inform the scope before pricing, works are phased around occupancy, and occupied-property protection - dust, noise, access, and life-safety continuity - is planned into the programme rather than improvised on site.
Specialist work packages
Defined packages - flooring, painting, signage, joinery, MEP modifications - run a compressed version of the process: site assessment, a fixed-scope proposal, then controlled execution. The discipline is the same; the overhead is proportionate to the scope.
The paperwork that protects you
Fit-out disputes are rarely about workmanship - they are about undocumented instructions, unpriced changes, and accounts that never close. NASH administers every appointment so that does not happen.
Payment certification
Payments are certified against measured progress and delivered scope, so what is paid always corresponds to what has been done.
Variation control
Changes are documented, priced, and approved before they are executed - no verbal instructions, no surprise costs at the final account.
Documented close-out
The final account is agreed formally and handover records are complete, so the project ends with a clean commercial and technical position.
