Assess location and method together
Physical distance is only one part of the project picture. Excavation, drilling, blasting, piling and foundation works may create different interfaces requiring competent project-specific assessment.
Coordinate the information flow
Location data, drawings, methods, technical assessments, programme and revisions should remain aligned throughout design and construction.
