<what we do>
We are a leading investor/developer specialising in the Design, Build, Finance and Operation (DBFO) of bespoke and often complex buildings. We have the resources and expertise to deliver our partners needs from the initial vision for a development through to operational management.
Challenging projects benefit from our expertise in procurement, dealing with multiple clients’ requirements and ensuring value for money at all project stages and appropriate returns on investment.
As well as private sector clients, we work on a regular basis with key government departments.
Our team has extensive experience of the development and delivery of social infrastructure either in partnership or as stand alone projects.
Regeneration projects which aim to ‘create place’; and a thriving, connected community, need appropriate and early stage social infrastructure to meet the needs of that growing community. Large scale regeneration projects have important S106 or S278 commitments and other community infrastructure works which can sometimes be treated as an afterthought.
Our team can take care of this crucial element of a major project and deliver the social infrastructure requirements, thereby allowing the lead developer to focus on the main commercial milestones and returns for their project.

< direct investment and development of assets >
>
Whether we are dealing with long term investments, joint ventures or creating assets on behalf of a client, to be sustainable our assets must work efficiently, function effectively, cope with change and above all be spaces that inspire and change lives for the better.
< lead or joint venture investor >
>
Creating exceptional and desirable infrastructure that meets our mission, means that we treat every asset we develop as a long term investment that must be of the highest quality.
Spaces take a full development lead role, mitigating the risks and often arranging the funding for a project. We do this through suitable joint venture arrangements on a majority or minority basis. These can then be held as short or long term investments.
We set out below some examples of the investor/developer roles we operate:
+
< asset management >
>
We are expert estate managers. We manage our own portfolio of properties, the majority of which have some link to the public sector with strict statutory and performance management requirements.
We provide a wide range of asset management services from site appraisal and acquisition, feasibility studies and condition surveys through to planning and architectural design, to facility management provision with a 24/7 helpdesk and engineers on call to support.
< smart buildings advice and implementation >
>
A key benefit of our services is the diagnostic use of technology, all facilities designed and under our management use smart technology and are constantly monitored.
This means that our field teams are effective at planned and reactive maintenance. We usually respond before any tenant has even identified a problem exists.
< investment appraisal >
>
Our team have very wide-ranging experience of delivering all kinds of projects in all kinds of sectors. From appraisal to investment analysis. We will have worked in your sector, talk us through your issues, we will be able to help.
< design >
>
We believe buildings design and functionality constantly evolve. We believe in creating spaces that can remain at the standard intended.
A space’s purpose, use and benefit changes over time. They need to be flexible and capable of being adapted.
