Site appraisal, planning strategy and a costed programme before a brick is laid. Prometheus reads a hotel scheme like a developer: we test whether the site stacks up, what consent is realistic and what it will cost to build, so you can commit with the numbers in front of you. Early input here is where the viability of a scheme is won or lost.
Scope scales with the project, but these four areas are the spine of any planning & feasibility engagement with Prometheus.
A clear read on whether the site suits a hotel: access, massing, ground conditions and the constraints that drive cost and programme.
A route to consent mapped with planning consultants, including pre-application engagement and the policy case for a hotel use.
An order-of-cost and outline programme so the scheme can be appraised against the funding model before fees mount up.
Early advice on structure, services and sequence that protects the build cost and keeps the design fundable.
As early as possible. The most value is added at feasibility, where buildability, cost and programme advice can shape the scheme before money is committed to a full design team.
Yes. We provide an order-of-cost estimate and an outline programme so the scheme can be tested against the funding model. The number tightens as the design develops.
We work with planning consultants and architects to set and run the strategy. We lead on the buildability, cost and programme case that supports the application.
Then we tell you early, with the reasons. A clear no at feasibility is far cheaper than discovering it after a design team is engaged. Where there is a viable alternative we will set it out.
Prometheus delivers across Manchester, the wider North West, Leeds and London as standard, with national schemes on request.
