When should you book Phase 1 Desktop Study?
Guidance on the project triggers that commonly lead to a Phase 1 Desktop Study enquiry.
Phase 1 Desktop Study is usually considered when a planning, compliance, design, transaction or delivery decision needs technical evidence. Leaving the requirement too late can create pressure around validation, condition discharge, site access, handover or contractor programming.
Common triggers
Typical triggers include planning comments, tender or acquisition deadlines, design changes, Building Control requirements, regulator queries, site mobilisation, sale or letting dates, or uncertainty raised by another technical report.
How to move it forward
Submit the enquiry with the project context, the reason the service is needed and any date you are working to. EnviroSolution can then review the priority route and confirm what information is needed next.
