Requirement definition
Translating an operating requirement — throughput, clear height, power, utilities, staffing, expansion — into a building program.
Build-to-Suit
A facility built to your operating requirement, on a structure that fits your balance sheet.
A build-to-suit is an operating decision before it is a real estate decision. The building has to serve a process — throughput, clear height, power, clean space, staffing, expansion — and the deal structure has to sit correctly against how the occupier wants to hold it.
We take a requirement from site selection through delivery as a single accountable party: we find and entitle the land, structure the transaction, carry the capital, and build it. Occupiers deal with the developer who owns the outcome rather than coordinating between a broker, a landlord, a developer, and a contractor who each hold one piece.
The building has to serve the operation. Everything else in the deal follows from that.
What this includes
Site selection
Market and site search against labour, logistics, utility capacity, and incentive criteria.
Flexible deal structures
Build-to-suit lease, build-to-own, sale-leaseback, and forward purchase, chosen to fit the occupier's balance sheet.
Transparent pricing
Open-book budget development, so the occupier sees what drives cost and where scope decisions land.
Municipal coordination
Entitlement, permitting, and incentive negotiation handled on the occupier's behalf.
Delivery to occupancy
Construction through commissioning, fit-out coordination, and certificate of occupancy on a committed date.
