Rapid transformations of construction industry, tightened legislation and requirements for real estate market players, project timebinding to financial performance foster the searching of new effective work solutions. As for UralDomStroy, such solution is the launching of inhouse Project Bureau, which will consolidate key competencies, global best practices and massive opportunities for self-fulfillment.
Konstantin Lyukin: Nowadays market is unstable and continuous changes require quick response, which directly depends on the quality of competencies of the team. There are problems at local level such as lack of project expediting and quality control tools. For sure, we have Russian and foreign partners, who assist in addressing these issues. But at a certain point we arrived at the conclusion that such expertise and resources shall be accumulated within our company but not compiled from all sides.
One of the objectives of the Project Bureau is to develop a direct path between designer and end user of product, remove unnecessary links from this chain to ensure that information about buyer's demand is communicated directly to the designer and is not corrupted by Chinese whispers. It is essential to bring the ‘architect-builder-client’ pattern to a whole new level, where project bureau employees are able to see actual results of their work, e.g., visits to construction sites, communication with buyers, obtaining feedback. The shorter is the path from designer to client the better.
Russian and foreign experience was thoroughly studied by project ideologists when creating the bureau and taken on board.
Konstantin Lyukin: We share the philosophy of foreign teams, where architect is a full-scale participant of construction process and no construction permit will be granted without his stamp. Second important point: relationship with client is maintained in foreign companies. This is the opportunity for continuous improvement of your product.
UralDomStroy understands that project bureau will have to perform a large amount of work not only because of the scale of project but because it is important to change beliefs about work of designer, share its more profound meaning, reformat people.
If present day designers’ criteria for decision making are availability of walls, windows and doors, the criteria of UralDomStroy project bureau will be more global and client-driven, i.e., ergonomics and project economics, product strategy, availability of materials in the market etc. To ensure adequate quality level, various disciplines will be developed within the project for detailed elaboration, e.g., dedicated experts for finishwork.
There are no project bureaus of such format in Izhevsk. Typically, all companies operating in this market are small-sized. Entry of such major player as UralDomStroy into the market will shift the balance and result in certain changes. Being the leader is the responsibility and company is aware of that.

Therefore, it is important that the person is free from any constraints of thinking, unoriginality, is committed, interested in new solutions, feels the trends, understands market demands and is able to adapt them for specific project. Uniqueness of the bureau is that designer is not detached from the project. The project is real, visible and feelable.
