A critical stage in real estate and workspace delivery is the acquisition of space and the related contractual agreements to allow work to proceed with diligence.

BDA adds considerable value for its customers during this stage of the delivery process. The project manager that has not participated or who has not become intimately familiar in / with the PLANNING phase is disconnected from the underlying mission and objectives of the customer.

Understanding this phase will result in a deliverable that is aligned with the customer’s strategic plan.
