A defined package delivered to the lead consultant's programme and standards, with the responsible registered engineer named.
Projects
What this sector usually needs
Consultancies that need a registered engineer in a discipline they do not hold in house, a certifying engineer or overflow capacity on a defined package.
- A registered engineer for a discipline the lead consultancy does not hold in house.
- Overflow capacity on a defined package with the lead consultant's standards and templates.
- Independent review or certification of a design prepared elsewhere.
What to expect
Scope, programme, deliverable format and the responsible registered engineer are fixed in the fee proposal.
Work is delivered in the lead consultant's templates and to its programme, ready to drop into the head report or drawing set.
How the work is commissioned
Subconsulting is commissioned by direct relationship between consultancies; no panel is needed.
