Project programming is beneficial to any project type. Whether you are planning to construct a new building, implement bicycle facilities, reconfigure what you have, or need someone to help determine which to do, Architectural Project Programming is the collaborative process necessary to define not only the contents or parts of a potential project, but the relationships, impact on work flow, budget, and time.
The process includes defining the problems and issues, then uncovering solutions through collaboration. This comprehensive document typically includes:
- An executive summary
- Communications and media work with residents, clients, constituents, and the community
- Process summary
- Project goals
- Summary of relevant project facts
- Spatial requirements, including square footage
- Stacking and adjacency analysis
- Flow diagrams
- Estimated costs
- Estimated phasing and schedule
