Design & Contract Administration

Maynard Marks provides design and project management services for the completion of commercial projects.

Our process involves liaising between Registered Architects, Space Planners and Interior Designers on behalf of our client to provide a design brief for concept plans.

Once design is complete and approved by the client we would move into detailed design, and where necessary, application for a Building Consent for the completion of the works.

Either concurrently with the application process, or after the issue of the Building Consent, where required, we would either tender the works to suitably experienced and qualified contractors in order to obtain fixed price competitive tenders for the completion of the project, or negotiate a contract with a specific supplier.

Once a recommendation has been made to the client to award a contract and this is accepted, a contract would then be drawn up and put in place between the client and contractor, generally under New Zealand Standard NZS:3910 2003 Conditions of Contract for Building and Civil Engineering Construction. We would then administer the contract as ‘Engineer to the Contract’ monitoring the works and programme, certifying progress payments, issuing variation orders and generally acting as Contract Administrator, ensuring successful completion of the project.
