Preparation of Overall Concept Statement
This document is an extension to the more marketing-related Concept Statement in the Initial Investigation. Here, however, there is more of a technical bias with detailed attention to safety, security, hygiene and user-comfort. Included also are sections on staffing, programming (of activities) and specialist equipment requirements.
Area Programme (Facilities/Services Mix)
The Area Programme forms the first step in producing flow charts and “bubble” diagrams to indicate which facilities and services will be made available to users. The Area Programme lists each component and the minimum area (square meterage) requirement of these components. The Area Programme serves as both a Checklist and a detailed planning tool for the Architect and Interior Designer.
Critical Path Plan
This matrix of technical, operational and marketing-related issues forms the master plan timetable up to and beyond the grand opening. Critically timed items are flagged. Monthly action plans will be formulated and revised based upon the Critical Path Plan.
Design Statement (Space Requirements)
This document gives detailed guidelines on issues such as materials and finishes, the relationship between certain areas (sightline protection, use of solid and soft, full/half height partitions), ceiling heights and lighting treatments. Special design issues for example, mechanical and electrical requirements, concealed power socket placements and safety issues are highlighted.
Design Layout (initial)
The Leisure Consultants will assist the Interior Designer and appointed Consultants in the creation of a sensible, comfortable and operationally sound layout that encompasses the Initial Concept Statement, Design Statement and Area Programme. This translation of words and ideas to drawings is a process which ends in the final approval of drawing submissions by the Owner.
Site Meetings Attendance
A senior representative from ILC will attend site meetings chaired by the Owner or owners’ representative and/or Project Manager as required.
