What this means for a project
Why a factory quotation is only one part of the delivered building budget. Final performance, dimensions, scope and program are confirmed only after project inputs and local requirements have been reviewed.
Factory supply scope
Ocean and inland freight
Local civil and services work
Approval and installation costs
Information needed for review
A useful first review needs the project location, intended building use, quantity, approximate floor area, number of storeys, target timing and any available drawings or tender documents.
Project inputs
Brief, drawings, site information, program and required supply scope.
Local review
Design criteria, professional appointments, approvals and site delivery conditions.
Responsibility boundary
The China supply team coordinates the agreed building-system scope and supporting documentation. Appointed local professionals remain responsible for local code interpretation, approvals and professional sign-off. Local contractors remain responsible for site execution and safety unless a written contract states otherwise.
