Bringing the project to life
Processes, logistics, architecture and IT as a one entity
The master planning for site extensions, site conversions or completely new constructions is followed by the concept design. Our approach in this phase is to treat the production, logistics and IT processes as a whole system.
In the concept design phase we bring the project to life: we generate a concept of how it may look, taking into consideration your corporate design as well as sustainability aspects. The focus is always on optimising processes while ensuring safe and efficient working conditions for the staff.
Factories, production plants and logistics facilities are always complex buildings, which the interdisciplinary teams at io-consultants treat as one entity right from the beginning. We do not stop at asking how a product is manufactured, but also take a close look at the space and the conditions in and under which it is produced. Nor do we consider building and process technology as separate entities – we see them as ‘organs’ within a symbiotic unit. Read more about our philosophy here.
We are the partner of choice for construction projects. Our clients can leave these entirely in our hands, and rest assured that they are free to concentrate on their core business. As lead consultants, our architects and construction experts pool process know-how and logistics and IT expertise to connect all the project interfaces – from the TBE to building physics, statics, and fire protection.
