Sometimes, Owner Builders just need a little assistance, a ‘kick start’ if you like, to get their project up and running.
This is where Owner Building Solutions Australia, through our unique Owner Builder PETS Program ™ make a real difference, setting you on your way to a truly successful Owner Builder project.
What is the Owner Builder P.E.T.S. Program™?
The PETS Program has been developed specifically to provide our Owner Builders the best opportunity to get their project on track right from the start.
Following a comprehensive planning schedule, an Owner Building Solutions Australia consultant will guide you through the four major steps during three scheduled one on one sessions totalling 10hrs of tuition and training.
Project Management
Using an appropriate Owner Builder Project Management System to coordinate and administer your Owner Builder construction, is the best way we know to run a successful domestic construction project.
Each of our clients who undertakes an Owner Builder P.E.T.S. Program™ will receive an Owner Building Solutions Project Management System which comes complete with a comprehensive user manual and an interactive resource disc.
Estimating
This important second step will include your OBS consultant establishing a budget estimate for your project based on detailed information provided by you, the Owner Builder.
Using established rates and known quantities, OBS will develop a budget for not only the overall project, but also a breakdown of estimates for each of the individual trades or suppliers.
Through this session, you will achieve a real understanding of the financial requirements of your project and gain an understanding of the importance of appropriate draw down schedules.
Tendering
Once the budgets are established and you have determined finishes and fixture requirements, your OBS consultant will guide you through the tender process.
Using the tools in the Project Management System and our wide ranging industry network, we will:
Assist you to identify suitable suppliers and trade contractors
Prepare tender documentation (up to 40 sets)
Complete relevant registers, schedules and control sheets
Scheduling
A large part of your second session with your OBS consultant will be devoted to identifying projected start dates and establishing a realistic construction scheduled.
This important tool allows you to not only monitor the progress of your project, but also helps you to accurately forecast cash flow requirements and potential project delays.
A well organised project saves you time and money, a realistic and well constructed building schedule is the best way we know to monitor, track and adjust project performance.
Undertaking an Owner Builder P.E.T.S. Program™ gives you access not only to our unique Owner Builder Systems, but also the invaluable experience of our team of dedicated and well trained staff who specialize in assisting Owner Builders to – “Build it Better for Less”.
