Project management is made up of continuous development processes that promote innovation in the way in which buildings are designed, in their quality of operation and in the desired economic success.
One of Rockbuilding's differentiating factors is the presence of experienced engineers and architects on its team. While architects deal with design and the aesthetic component, engineers optimize structural planning, adapting the architect's creativity and innovation. One completes the other. Teamwork is essential in life, and that's especially true in Rockbuilding's way of working.
Our role involves the following functions:
- Motivate and coordinate design teams;
- Ensure that architectural and engineering projects meet the deadline, budget and quality defined by the Client;
- Analysis of deliveries;
- Compliance with current regulations.
Our experience in hundreds of managed projects gives us an insight into the complexity that commercial, office, hotel, industrial, or residential licensing can represent.
We strive to provide practical advice to our clients based on our extensive knowledge of national and municipal legislation, zoning and urban planning. Our goal is to align client interests with the most efficient licensing strategy for each project.
During all phases of the project, our teams coordinate the obtaining of administrative authorizations, deadlines, requirements, and notifications of the licensing processes under management.
Adding value involves developing new solutions throughout the phases of a project, reducing costs and increasing functionality and the respective value of the asset.
When it comes to architecture and engineering, this means creating buildings with the best cost-benefit ratio and that meet your functional and commercial requirements, throughout the investment lifecycle.
After a preliminary analysis, we used our know-how and creativity to generate a set of optimizations and alternative solutions that exceed the intended functions and add value to the project.
Our expert assessment of factors, including product lifecycle, sustainability, and well-being, allows our customers to better predict their spending and make more informed decisions.
