01
Separate the pack fee from the implementation budget
The PLANORA pack price pays for the conceptual proposal and its defined deliverables. It is not the price to construct, furnish or occupy the office. Decision adds conceptual investment information; Presentation focuses on the spatial and visual proposal.
Keep design fees, proposed construction, furniture and owner-side costs distinguishable. Identify what is included, excluded, already provided by the building or still unknown before comparing totals.
02
Build the budget around a scope
Use these headings to organize the first discussion. Their relevance and size depend on the actual project; this is not a national rate card or a contractor quotation.
- Existing conditions
Surveys, removals, reuse and base-building assumptions
What is present, usable and confirmed?
- Architectural fit-out
Partitions, doors, ceilings, flooring, finishes and joinery
What must change to realize the proposed layout?
- Building systems
Mechanical, electrical, plumbing, lighting, data and fire-protection scope
What needs further specialist review or coordination?
- Furniture & equipment
Workstations, meeting furniture, reception and shared amenities
What is reused, purchased separately or included?
- Professional & project costs
Design, engineering, permits and other relevant project costs
Who is responsible and what is excluded?
- Allowances & uncertainty
Unverified scope, contingencies and procurement assumptions
Which assumptions could materially change the total?
03
Compare offices on the same basis
An existing fitted suite and an unfinished shell do not begin at the same point. Compare the intended program, work area, reuse assumptions, finish level and systems scope—not only the headline total.
State location, estimate date and price basis. Separate a landlord contribution or lease incentive from the gross investment needed to deliver the proposal. Do not subtract an unconfirmed allowance as though it were agreed funding.
- Same program and scope boundary
- Existing versus proposed work clearly identified
- Explicit exclusions and unverified conditions
- Comparable estimate date and price basis
04
Use Decision to organize the next step
Decision connects the furnished proposal to fit and growth analysis, quantities, conceptual investment, a preliminary implementation timeline and supporting spreadsheets. The analysis is a starting point for review, not a guaranteed construction cost or contractor commitment.
The pack delivery time and the implementation timeline describe different things. Online pack delivery is within 24 consecutive hours of confirmed full payment; construction, approvals, purchasing and installation follow the actual project conditions.
