Our Services


HENWOOD may tailor a delivery method and contract to meet every client and projects requirements. This allows each client to determine their preferred level of project involvement and sets the parameters around the services scope of works provided. We have found Early Contractor Involvement has provided the opportunity to maximise the value achievable in a project by taking advantage of HENWOOD extensive construction experience to develop an efficient cost-effective design in parallel with the intended aesthetic and build-ability considerations.

Project Delivery Methods

Cost and Programme Planning

HENWOOD understands that projects must be commercially viable before they may proceed to design and documentation phase. As such, we provide cost planning, quantitative surveying and programme advice at inception of a potential project that can be used as a guide for managing the cost and time expectations. As per the Earlier Contractor Involvement method, this allows us to give the project the necessary direction required to maintain the key drivers. 


Design and Development

HENWOOD is able to bring together a team of architects, consultants designers and engineers to determine the project brief and develop the design. This will include the extraction of a client needs analysis and functional brief with a collaborative design approach to ensure the design is tailored to best service all requirements and in accordance with relevant codes, regulations and standards. This process may then be managed from conception to completion, including consultant appointment and fee management, design management to attain authority and council approvals, development approval determination, conforming development certification, building owners and neighbours notification and consent, construction certification and final occupation certification on the government planning portal.


Value Engineering

HENWOOD uses value engineering with a systematic and organized approach to provide the necessary functions in a project at the lowest cost.
