SENIOR LIVING BRAND AND CUSHMAN & WAKEFIELD
Delivered a premium senior living development by integrating smart value engineering, transparent tendering, and tight construction oversight—ensuring on-time, within budget completion without compromising quality or design intent.
01 THE WORLD THAT HAD BEEN BUILT
Partnered with a client in the healthcare space to provide commercial real estate design and build services, taking over the construction of a world-class IT building in the KIADB area of North Bengaluru. Due to the presence of COVID-19, limited cash flow presented a significant challenge.
02 THE MOMENT WE DID NOT SETTLE
Our seasoned professionals encountered several complexities and challenges while addressing the client's demands and site conditions on the project. However, we supported our client by proactively employing methods to work with reduced cashflow.
03 BRINGING IDEAS TO LIFE
The winning solution entailed a comprehensive approach. We undertook the following strategic decisions that demonstrated our commitment to delivering cost-effective and structurally sound solutions, tailored to our client's needs:
- Collaborating closely with the structural consultant, the team transitioned the design from a post-tensioned (PT) system to a conventional reinforced cement concrete (RCC) model, resulting in an estimated savings of ₹1 crore.
- Additionally, recommended casting the RCC foundation using a mix of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) instead of pure concrete, leading to a cost reduction of ₹0.62 crore. The use of GGBS not only provided economic benefits but also enhanced the durability of the concrete, offering superior resistance to chemical attacks and improving long-term strength.
- The team proposed replacing reinforcement overlaps with couplers, which proved to be an economical alternative.
- Recognizing the importance of timely decision-making during the excavation phase, the team advised the structural consultant to be present onsite. This proactive involvement led to modifications in the footing sizes, yielding an additional savings of ₹3.50 crore.
