Construction Project Stages
Concept
The Concept stage of construction involves defining the scope of the project, conducting feasibility studies and deciding whether to proceed. For larger projects, this is when master planning takes place. Concept may also include rezoning, especially if the intended project’s use falls in a different category to the current land use restrictions, and appointing a designer through design tender. In mining projects, exploration and scoping studies occur, which involve applying for permits to conduct mineral explorations (sampling, mapping, surveying, drilling, etc.).

Design & Documentation
During the Design and Documentation stage, the focus shifts to defining how the project integrates into the local area, which is crucial for obtaining design and building approval. This phase involves in-depth planning and drafting of architectural drawings, specifying both exterior and interior products, engaging consultants and engineers, and preparing comprehensive tender documentation.
For mining projects, assessing the mine’s feasibility and commercial viability, applying for environmental permits and mining licenses, and undertaking detailed engineering designs and documentation all fall in this stage.

Pre-Construction
Pre-Construction involves appointing a main contractor, sometimes via tender. Tendering is a competitive process that involves inviting selected firms to submit a proposal or publishing an advertisement that invites all contractors that meet certain licensing requirements or capability levels. The developer may opt to first invite firms to submit an expression of interest (EOI), before shortlisting preferred contractors and conducting a comprehensive evaluation based on factors like price, quality, experience, timeframe and the choice of subcontractors.
Alternatively, a main contractor may be directly appointed without the project going to tender.

Construction
During the Construction stage of a project, subcontractors are selected and building works commence. This phase involves boots on site, and managing construction budgets and timeframes, all leading to project completion and handover to the client.
