Two - GROUNDWORK
October 11, 2024

The Groundwork Phase is all about gathering information and getting everything lined up for the Construction Phase.
Typically 15-20% of the overall project budget.
Despite being less than a quarter of the budget, the Groundwork Phase asks the most time commitment from our clients. There are many decisions to make and our method is to have an ongoing back and forth conversation for the duration of the Phase.
