OUR PHILOSOPHY

The Development Advisory unit at Promag, approaches projects from an outside in perspective, focusing on the technical and financial viability, built practicality and the specific requirements of a project’s target market. The Company can create a viable development structure for a project and carry it the full circle based on its Project Management capability. It is this aspect which sets Promag apart as a 360° Development Partner in a project.

Once a primary scheme, based on cost and market suitability parameters is determined, the project is often carried forward by our affiliate design firms under the oversight of Promag’s Design Management expertise. We specialize in large scale developments where we can effectively deploy our multi-disciplinary Design and Project Management capabilities.
