As Procurement Models, Project Economics and Delivery Structures Evolve, Our Design Management Expertise Works Alongside Design Teams to Support Alignment — Helping Those Leading And Delivering Projects to Maintain Clarity, Confidence and Control from Design to Delivery.

COORDINATION • CLARITY • CONTROL


01

COORDINATED
DESIGN ACROSS
DISCIPLINES...

As procurement models and delivery structures evolve, the spaces between consultancy scopes are broadening. Coordination increasingly exists in those spaces — and that is where we sit.

02

CLARITY
DRIVING
MOMENTUM...

When teams are aligned, decisions follow. And when decisions are concise, design moves with fewer revisions, less delays, and greater confidence from concept through to execution.

03

VARIATIONS
MITIGATED
DURING DESIGN...

Issues are cheapest to resolve at the design stage.

A change identified and executed early might cost hundreds of dollars; left until site, it could result in thousands of dollars of cost in delays, disruption and variations.

BEHIND
RED PEN.

Prior to establishing Red Pen Design, James spent more than twenty years working across a broad range of large scale, complex projects, from major commercial developments to high-volume residential programmes. Here is what some of the people he worked with say.

“James brought real clarity to a complex design process. Working directly with our team, consultants and key stakeholders, he kept decisions moving and nothing fell through the gaps. His guidance throughout made a genuine difference to the outcome."

Ian Love
Director of Operations
New Zealand International Convention Centre

"At Fletcher Living, James led the design team through our highest periods of consenting and construction. He ensured consultants were well coordinated and kept complex projects on track. When we stood up Vivid Living he took the lead on getting our first communities off the ground, bringing exactly the rigour and coordination a startup in a new sector requires."
