Site Development Coordination

Site Development Coordination begins when the client has identified a potential site and can continue through the grand opening date.  During the Site Development coordination process, the CASCO site development coordinator (SDC) investigates and identifies all aspects of the project that could potentially affect the operations, construction costs and opening schedule.  These factors can be generally categorized as on-site constraints, off-site requirements, governmental/jurisdictional controls and lease/developer conditions.

 

The SDC coordinates jurisdictional approvals, site survey, geotechnical investigation, civil design and building construction documents.  CASCO analyzes these conditions and assist in determining a realistic schedule for building construction start, which in turn establishes the client's grand opening date.

 

 

Design & Engineering Process

CASCO's design and engineering process combines the volume advantages of the "big box" facility with the intimacy of the small shop experience.  With the enhanced efficiency of a full-service engineering company under one roof, CASCO can value engineer complete structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical systems for any size facility tailored to a client specific criteria.  With our staff's retail and design experience, the spatial characteristics of the facility's interior can be given whatever degree of intimacy and human scale best fits the client's retail scenarios.  CASCO's ever-increasing expertise with REVIT, the latest interactive, three-dimensional, computer-generated construction document system, enables our team to present the client with a customized set of documents that can automatically inventory stock, detect conflicts and project "real-time" full color, 3-D images of the store for marketing and design review.  CASCO can present the client with a "virtual lab" for their facility, whereby all elements of the retail process can be set up, reviewed, analyzed and implemented... without one piece of merchandise or one fixture actually being moved.  For CASCO and our clients, the future is now and the cutting edge is but a step away.
