Material Procurement

What do you need from me to start material procurement?

• Finalized Design Plans: This includes a clear layout and specifications of the materials needed for the project, such as finishes, fixtures, and structural materials.
• Material Selections: A list of specific materials (or guidance on desired styles, brands, or products) the client wants to be used in the project. If needed, we can assist with this selection process as part of our design and selections services.
• Budget Information: A clear budget allocation for the materials. This will help us ensure that we source materials that meet both the aesthetic and financial goals of the project. We can also assist in setting material budgets through our design and selections service.
• Timeline and Schedule: Information on the project timeline so we can coordinate the procurement and delivery of materials to avoid any delays in construction.
• Approved Suppliers or Preferences: If the client has preferred suppliers, specific brands, or any other procurement preferences, we need that information upfront to align with their expectations.
