Astute project management is the key to the success of development projects. This field of expertise within ADW Johnson is regarded as the most critical to the success of the company and its clients.

We are regularly engaged to determine the development potential of a site for subdivision, medium or high density, commercial or industrial use. We consider all aspects of development including planning, environmental, engineering and market constraints to ascertain the highest and best use of each site. Our feasibility analyses culminate in a report including estimated development costs for different development scenarios.

The co-ordination of all aspects of the development is paramount to an efficient process. Sub-consultants with varying special areas of expertise are often engaged to address all relevant aspects of a proposal and to ensure a smooth approval process. Likewise, the co-ordination of design and construction considerations is just as important during the physical construction of the project.

ADW Johnson offers all aspects of project management to ensure successful projects are analysed, approved and developed including;

 - Site Capability Assessments

 - Project Feasibilities and Due Diligence

 - Project Coordination

 - Tender and Contract Documentation

 - Construction Management

 - Economic Analysis

 - Project/Industry Advocacy

 - Funding Applications
