1. An appraisal of the size and configuration of the building.
Appraisal Problem: The subject appraisal assignment was to estimate market value for an existing industrial office/warehouse property. The appraisal was used for refinancing purposes. The property appraised consisted of a 5.34 acre site improved with a 108,000 square foot office/warehouse industrial building that was built in 1968 with an addition in 2005
The comparable sales ranged from 7.5% finished office space to 40.0% finished.
This example shows how one appraiser had attempted to quantify this office finish adjustment by relating his estimated adjustment to the replacement costs of buildings with varying percentages of finish.
The date of valuation was May 23, 2011.
The appraiser used six sales in his sales comparison analysis that ranged from 50,372 square feet to 192,924 square feet. A significant difference between these comparable sales and the subject property were their varying levels of office finish.
This adjustment category reflects the differences in the percentage of finished office area between the subject and the comparables. Adjustments were applied to the comparables based on the differential of finished area between the comparables and the subject. Typically, office space rents for nearly double the rate of warehouse space.
The subject property has a finished area of approximately 20% of net rentable building area. The comparables have finished area ranging from 7.5% to 40%. The table below summarizes the adjustments made to each sale based on the differences of finished
Procurement Management
Procurement management follows a logical order. First, you plan what you need to contract; then you plan how you’ll do it. Next, you send out your contract requirements to sellers. They bid for the chance to work with you. You pick the best one, and then you sign the contract with them. Once the work begins, you monitor it to make sure that the contract is being followed. When the work is done, you close out the contract and fill out all the paperwork.
You need to start with a plan for the whole project. Before doing anything else, you need to think about all of the work that you will contract out for your project. You will want to plan for any purchases and acquisitions. Here’s where you take a close look at your needs to be sure that contracting is necessary. You figure out what kinds of contracts make sense for your project, and you try to define all of the parts of the project that will be contracted out.
Contract planning is where you plan out each individual contract for the project work. You work out how you’ll manage the contract, what metrics it will need to meet to be considered successful, how you’ll pick a seller, and how you’ll administer the contract once the work is happening.
The procurement management plan details how the procurement process will be managed. It includes the following information:
· The types of contracts you plan to use and any metrics that will be used to measure the contractors’ performance
· The planned delivery dates for the work or products you are contracting
· The company’s standard documents you will use
· The number of vendors or contractors involved and how they will be managed
· How purchasing may impact the constraints and assumptions of the project plan
· The coordination of purchasing lead times with the development of the project schedule
· The identification of prequalified sellers (if known)
The procurement management plan, like all other management plans, becomes a subsidiary of the project management plan. Some tools and techniques you may use during the procurement planning stage include make-or-buy analysis and definition of the contract type.
Fixed-Price Contracts
The fixed-price contract is a legal agreement between the project organization and an entity (person or company) to provide goods or services to the project at an agreed-on price. The contract usually details the quality of the goods or services, the timing needed to support the project, and the price for delivering goods or services. There are several variations of the fixed-price contract. For commodities and goods and services where the scope of work is very clear and not likely to change, the fixed-price contract offers a predictable cost. The responsibility for managing the work to meet the needs of the project is focused on the contractor. The project team tracks the quality and schedule progress to ensure the contractors will meet the project needs. The risks associated with fixed-price contracts are the costs associated with project change. If a change occurs on the project that requires a change order from the contractor, the price of the change is typically very high. Even when the price for changes is included in the original contract, changes on a fixed-price contract will create higher total project costs than other forms of contracts because the majority of the cost risk is transferred to the contractor, and most contractors will add a contingency to the contract to cover their additional risk.

Fixed-price contracts require the availability of at least two or more suppliers that have the qualifications and performance histories that ensure the needs of the project can be met. The other requirement is a scope of work that is most likely not going to change. Developing a clear scope of work based on good information, creating a list of highly qualified bidders, and developing a clear contract that reflects that scope of work are critical aspects of a good fixed-priced contract.
Procurement Plan
After the decision has been made to purchase goods or outsource services, the procurement team develops a plan that includes the following:
· Selecting the appropriate relationships and contract approaches for each type of purchased goods or outsourced service
· Preparing requests for quotes (RFQs) and requests for proposals (RFPs) and evaluating partnership opportunities
· Evaluating RFQs, RFPs, and partnerships
· Awarding and signing contracts
· Managing quality and timely performance
· Managing contract changes
· Closing contracts
A proposed cash flow for the client from inception to practical completion.
This guidance note summarises what cash flow forecasting is, how to produce a useful forecast and how to then use the forecast to assess progress on site as well as other issues, and to assist both employers and contractors to analyse actual expenditure against forecast expenditure. For the purposes of giving guidance, the client is referred to as the 'employer' and the main contractor as 'contractor'. However, much of the guidance can equally be applied to a contractor/sub-contractor or supplier arrangement. This guidance note generally gives guidance on the cash flow of construction contracts (project cash flows) and not specifically for the cash flows of companies (organisational cash flow), although there are many principles that do overlap. Cash flow is the lifeblood of the construction industry and relates to the incoming or outgoing of money to or from a company over a given period (usually monthly). Within construction contracts a cash flow forecast is generally used to inform the employer so that they know what and when their monetary commitments under the contract will be. They can be in the form of long-term or short-term forecasts and these forecasts should be constantly updated and revised as better, more accurate information becomes available or when variations to the model occur (i.e. non-expenditure of provisional sums, claims, extension of times). Guidance is given in relation to the main forms of contract and main procurement routes, under the following headings, which map to the Assessment of Professional Competence (APC):
· General principles (Level 1: Know)
• Practical application (Level 2: Doing)
• Practical considerations (Level 3: Doing/Advising)
Uses of cash flow forecasts
There are two main types of cash flow forecast: • The cash flow forecast of a company (i.e. a contractor or consultant) - otherwise known as organisational cash flow. • The cash flow forecast of a particular construction contract or project - otherwise known as project cash flow. The cash flow forecast of a company will review and analyse the predicted incoming and outgoing cash for a set period of time (usually a year) and is often used for business and resource planning and for analysing the financial health of companies. The cash flow forecast of a construction contract or project deals specifically with the payments due under a particular construction contract. The construction contract cash flow will often inform a company's overall cash flow as they are intrinsically linked. It is important to understand both types of cash flow forecast and how and why they are used within the construction industry. Various parties within a construction contract use cash flow forecasts for different reasons and it is therefore not uncommon to present cash flow forecasts in different ways to fit the requirement. It is also important to note that cash flow can travel in different directions, but for the purposes of this guidance note any reference to cash flow shall mean the cash flow from the employer to the main contractor unless otherwise stated. Other directions of cash flow to consider are the main contractor's cash flow to their subcontractors and suppliers, the employer's cash flow to consultants (i.e. architect and quantity surveyor,
A developer equation demonstration the financial viability of the scheme
Aims:
a. To test the impact on the economics of house building of revised affordable housing thresholds (or no threshold), percentage requirements and tenure splits;
b. To consider the practicality of defining affordable housing requirements on small sites;
c. To assess and provide commentary on the impact of affordable housing and other developer contributions (i.e. S106 agreements) recently revised, on the delivery of house building within the Borough.
d. To consider the viability of redeveloping employment sites for employment purposes and mixed use development;
e. To report the findings to the Council.
While LBRT commissioned two financial viability assessments, they are clearly interlinked for various reasons including;
a. In many Boroughs, residential redevelopment sites including affordable housing are often former employment sites, but are feasible because of significant value differentials;
b. Current very strong property yields which have increased existing use values and thus highlighted viability issues;
c. The requirement in PPS3 Housing (para.29) for Affordable Housing Viability Studies with particular reference to proposed threshold changes; and
d. The increasing requirement for mixed use developments incorporating residential and employment generating uses and arguments about the relative viability of different ratios of such uses.
Methodology
While our methodology is consistent and follows standard development appraisal conventions, it should be emphasised that local market and planning policy circumstances are always different. Consequently, not only are such viability exercises particular to each authority, they are also specific to the time when they are undertaken and should of course be regularly reviewed to reflect revised policies, new market conditions, changes in the affordable housing regime and of course, the outcome of Circular 05/05 on Planning Obligations. As will become clear, we have taken account as far as is practicable, of all these variables in carrying out these Reviews.
The Approach to Financial Viability
Development Appraisal models are in essence simple and can be summarised via the following equation;
Completed Development Value
Minus
Total Construction Costs
Minus
Developers Profit
=
Residual Land Value Residual Value
– what the landowner receives – will normally be the critical variable. If a proposal generates sufficient positive land value, it will be implemented; if not, unless, there are alternative funding sources to bridge the ‘gap’ (and these will normally be particular to regeneration areas via public bodies such as English Partnerships) , the proposal will not go ahead.

1 INTRODUCTION This report aims to provide assessments and estimates in relation to the proposed Preston Barracks development, justifying the decisions/choices made.This will be presented as 6 A3 sheets, through the medium of a report.
The project is to transforms the Preston Barracks site so that facilitates Student Accomondation (20% affordable), new homes, a retail space, a central research lab and a health centre. This will be proposed through an initial assessment of the site, a Cost Plan, a Procurement Timetable, a Proposed cash flow and using the developer’s equation to deteremine feasibility.

Figure 2.1 – Site Plan View (Google, 2016)
2 ASSESSMENT OF THE SIZE AND CONFIGURATION OF THE BUILDINGS ON THE SITE The site comprises of an estimated 1.97 hectare area (Daftlogic, 2016). The proposed site would contain the following buildings, according to the client brief (footprints estimated using source (Daftlogic, 2016)):
o Student Accomodation 500no. o New homes 350no.
o Standard 80% 270no. o Affordable 20% 70no.
o Retail Space 1no. o Central Research Lab 1no. o Health Centre 1no.
Figure 2.2– Site Plan/Satellite View (Google, 2016)
New Standard Homes (estimated using (Brighton & Hove City Council, 2011))
Unit Size from superseded Proposal = 27,126m2/318 or 85m2
Total Units Area = 85m2*270 or 22,950m2
Area per floor (8no. Storeys Max) = 22,950m2/8 or 2,865.75m2
N
Central, Linear Path to all facilities
A feature, landscaped, open plan path would be created to serve the new buildings, and provide a functional and aesthetically pleasing environement. This also allow for the sun path to shine through at midday.
Retail Space
Given Total Area = 2,5000ft2 or 2,300 (2323)
Area per floor (2no. Storeys) = 2,300/2 or 1,150m2
Placed adjacent to the existing listed building, near the entrance to allow quick and easy access from the entrance to site. Minimal floor number to make retail experience less physically demanding.
Health Centre
Total Area = 2500m2
Area per floor (2no. Storey) = 2500m2/2 or 1250m2
The rationale behind the placement is similar to the Central Reseach Lab, yet its presence as a secondary iconic building reinforces the quality design of the scheme.
New Affordable Homes (15% less space)
Affordable Unit Size = 85m2*0.75 or 63.75m2
Total Units Area = 63.75m2*70 or 4,462.5m2
Area per floor (6no. Storeys) =4,462.5m2/6 or 743.75m2
Would be placed near the road - the residents of the standard housing would have have the ‘luxury’ of less noise pollution by being placed at the back of the site.
Student Accomodation (estimated using Metric Handbook (Adler, 2008))
Bedroom Size = 5m*3m
Communal/Dining = 12m*3m
Provisionally 6 Students per dorm = (12*3) + (6*(5*3)) or 126m2
TOTAL AREA = (500/6)*126 or 10,500m2
Area per floor (8no. Storeys Max) = 10,500m2 /8 or 1,312.5m2
Homeowners would benefit from the long term benefits of not being near the road (noise pollution), however students tenancy would be temporary and therefore the issue is relatively less urgent.
Protected MOD
Building
Central Research Lab (estimated using (Brighton & Hove City Council, 2011))
Area from Superseded Proposal = 2,735m2
Area per floor (2no. Storeys) = 2,735/2 or 1367.5m2
This would be placed by the road, as this would be the flagship in design, intended to be showcased to the general public.

3 PROCUREMENT TIMETABLE Figure 3.1 shows a typical procurement timetable. This can be divided up into
Pre-Qualification arrangements and the actual tender process, along with
stages such as mobilisation. The estimated duration for the procurement
processes is approximately 23 weeks. Contained are the appropriate
milestones, notably including Pre-Qualification Questionnaire submission
deadline, Letter of Tender Invitation, Contract Award and Contract start date.
The proposal would provisionally work around a Design and Build Contract,
and therefore the BCIS-obtained timescale that would follow reflects this. A
D&B contract shifts the risk towards the contractor rather than the client, one
of the advantanges being that the client can settle “on a complete package
for design and build”(RICS, 2000).
4 COST PLAN Details and Precidence for this aspect of the report were found on BCIS.
Figure 4.1 shows a typical case study that shared common features with the
proposed buildings.
The Cost/m2, rebased to Q2 2016 @Brighton, was used for the cost plans,
along with the adjusted breakdowns of each building element, their
percentage weights and any miscellaneous costs such as design fees,
preliminaries and contingencies. The allowed for a more precise breakdown
of costs that was tailoured to the specific site.
The provisional contract sum would be £92,253,573, please refer to Sections
4.1-6 for the breakdowns.

5 PROPOSED CASH FLOW (& COST PLAN CONTINUED…) This section show how each aspect of cost is delivered and packaged into
manageable monetary chunks. Figure 5.1 not only shows this, but also shows
what implications this may have on the order/start times of buildings within
the proposal. It has been determined that 3 years is an adequate amount of
time to carry out this project, and therefore the table presents 12 quarters
from inception to practical completion. Included is a sub-table of the
cumulative contract sum, showing the increasing cashflow requirements as
the project progresses. This, along with an indicative client cashflow (with
Certificates of Payment issued at ~5-10% Contract Sum), was used to present
Figure 5.2 and 5.3.
Figure 5.2 illustrates the client and contractor cash flow variation. This gives
insight into areas of negative cashflow where the contractor would need
more money than the client has released, evidenced in Q4 Year 1 and Q1&2
Year 2. Contrastingly, the need green-shaded area shows where the
contractor is in a state of positive cash flow.
The Contractor’s working capital for the duration of the contruction can be
seen in Figure 5.3. It can be observed that the contractor would need the
most working capital at the beginning of Year 2, and would have the highest
sum of real capital by the end of the same year.

6 FINANCIAL VIABILITY - DEVELOPERS EQUATION DEMONSTRATION
Investors involved with the proposal would want to know if this project is
financial feasible. Figure 6.1 ultimately shows the Resultant Site Value, along
with the Gross Developmental Value of each building and their potential for
income.
Crucially, the decision of whether it is financially viable to go forward with the
proposal is determined by the calculated approximate site value.

If the actual site value is less than the calculated maximum site value, this proposal can be considered feasible for a client.
It is appropriate to conclude on this statement, as it is the final milestone for the in-depth assessment/estimate.
In summary, this report provides a comprehensive assessment of the site, estimations of cost and cash flow and finally the financial viability of the scheme. By using current case studies from BCIS and applied knowledge of cost and contracts, this assessment can be deemed as relevant and suitably accurate. This is consolidated through the various references cited within.

PRESTON BARRACKS REPORT
INTRODUCTION
The proposed Preston Barracks redevelopment is a project that has been considered for a long
period of time with numerous different organisations involved. This report will consider the current
proposals as stated in the Brighton and Hove planning brief of September 2011(Brighton and
Hove Council, planning brief, 2011), and consider the financial implications for the project
partners.
The project will involve a substantial investment by the University of Brighton in cost, time and
human resources. The scale of the project means there are many different stakeholders and the
University would be working in partnership with Brighton and Hove City Council, and the
development company Cathedral Group Holdings.
Preston Barracks is a large brownfield site to the North East of the Brighton area and sits next to
Lewes Road, one of the main roads in/out of the City. There is a requirement for the project to
deliver a wide range of outcomes including:
Delivering Sustainable Development,
Housing,
Deliver Sustainable economic growth,
Provide for Sustainable transport (Brighton and Hove Council, planning brief, 2011).
This report seeks to assess the project both from a space planning and financial point of view,
and will summarise the financial viability of the scheme given todays economic outlook.

Figure 1– The wider regeneration and development area
The Preston Barracks site forms a part of a wider development and regeneration project for the city of
Brighton and Hove. Figure 1 shows the extent of the development taking in three areas at: Watt’s/Cockroft
site; Preston Barracks site; and Mithras House site. This report concerns the development proposed at the
Preston Barracks site only, and here we assess the size and configuration of the three design proposals in
place.
Scenario A
This scenario focusses the residential area into a distinct area of the Barracks
and excludes student housing from the Barracks site. The central square
located over Lewes Road would also mean extensive infrastructure works over
an extremely busy and important road into Brighton and Hove.
Scenario B
This scenario provides a diverse range of uses on the West side of Lewes Rd,
effectively combining the Barracks and Watt’s site. It provides for integrated
University and non-University buildings and the link connection to the East side of
Lewes Rd is more functionary, with a large central square being situated on the
Barracks site.
Scenario C
This scenario keeps the distinction between University owned land and the Barracks site. The Business
school building is proposed to be the link building between the East and West Side of Lewes Road. The
central square and mixed use areas are predominantly on the Barracks site, further reinforcing the
distinction between University and other areas.
Figure 2– Scenario A development plan Figure 3– Indicated heights for Scenario A
Figure 5– Scenario B development plan
Figure 4– Indicated heights for scenario B
Figure 6– indicated heights for scenario C
Figure 7– Scenario C development plan
JUDGEMENT
Scenario B would provide an interesting and
inclusive development that encourages
integration of University, business and residential
residents. The 2011 Planning Brief calls for a
development that aids ‘Place Making’ and
mixing building types, combined with the large
central square would help to create this.
The spread of residential housing would also
allow for a mixed type of units from family
homes to one or two bedroom apartments, with
their massing suitably staggered across the site
parallel with Lewes Road, as required from
planning ‘Supplementary Guidance Note 14’.
Whichever scenario is pursued it should be
noted that design quality will have as large an
impact as master planning of the site, and
should be carefully reviewed if the
development is to be successful.

3 REFERENCES:
All data taken from the BCIS service accessed on 1/5/15, accessed at www.rics.org Preston Barracks Development, Policy and Resources Committee, 11/7/13
The Preston Barracks development is a significant project that will require a multi-million pound
investment by the University and it’s partner Cathedral Group Holdings. This report seeks to outline a
cost plan for the development using cost information gained from BCIS on the 1/5/15 for similar type
buildings to the one’s proposed for Preston Barrack’s. The building types considered and their relative
size by functional unit are:
1. Student accommodation with 500 bedrooms.
2. 350 new homes (of which 20% to be affordable).
3. 2500m2 of retail space.
4. 5500m2 Central Research Laboratory.
5. Health Centre (assumed 2000m2 see section for reasoning)
METHODOLOGY
For each of the building types five samples were taken from BCIS costing analysis to form the basis of
average construction costs relevant to each type. The samples were chosen for their specifications
similarity to what can be expected from the Preston Barracks proposal. For example criteria for number
of storeys, air conditioning, inclusion of a basement and, in the case of new homes, whether or not the
development was of mixed type and tenure. The results were also rebased to Q1 2015 and ‘South East
> Brighton’ prices.
The standard distribution (SD) of the samples in each criteria was considered, however the specifics of
the building specification meant that for some building types (the student housing in particular), a very
great SD was present in the available data. Mean averages have been used wherever the term
‘average cost’ is used in this analysis.
As well as the five building types stated above, the author recognises that there is a substantial cost in
providing infrastructure to the proposed development. As a proxy for infrastructure costs this report uses
the ‘Community Infrastructure Levy’ (CIL) likely to be required from Brighton and Hove Council. Unfortu-
nately the Council is yet to publish the rates for CIL, and the figure of £100 per square metre has been
used based on the analyses in Appendix 6.1. The total built area of Preston Barracks is defined as
49,570m2 based on information from Brighton and Hove Policy and Resources Committee.
It is also recognised that the whilst the element break down from BCIS includes a heading for ‘Design
Fees’, these are likely to be fees incurred by the contractor during construction and do not necessarily
cover the full cost of design and consultancy fees that would be involved in a project of this scale. This
is evidenced by the very small or zero fee entered for some of the building types. For this reason build-
ing construction costs and infrastructure costs were treated as 90% of total construction cost, with an
additional 10% made up of design and consultancy fees. Reasoning for assuming 10% as design and
consultancy fees can be seen in appendix 6.2.
SUMMARY TABLE FOR AVERAGE CONSTRUCTION COSTS (See Appendix 6.3 for calculations)
Student Housing - £79,232 per bedroom Mixed tenure Housing - £123,680 per unit Health Centre - £1,971 per m2 Retail Centre - £889 per m2 Central Research Lab - £2,161 per m2 KEY

For example the Student Housing was calculated per student bedroom and the Retail Space per M2.. Whilst not in the brief the Health centre size of 2000m2 is taken from previous work on case studies for typical local health centres (See appendix 6.4), and the Central Research Laboratory size is taken from Cathedral Group Holdings’ Preston Barracks information website (www.cathedralgroup.com). In this way the projected construction cost for each building element can be seen in the ‘Total cost of element’ col- umn, and this will be used in the projected cash flow profile in section two of this report.

3. CASH FLOW
METHODOLOGY
This report uses published cash flow models and case studies to produce a predicted cash flow for the pro- ject from start to completion.
There is an accepted theory of a ‘standard curve’ in a construction projects cumulative cash flow which describes the lower level of expenditure at the start of a project, increasing rate of expenditure during the main construction phase, and then a lessening rate of expenditure towards the projects end (RICS, isurv, isurv.com). There are a number of models to produce this standard curve, this report uses the Department for Health and Social Security (DHSS) model (1978) owing to its prevalence in the UK construction industry (Financing Construction p71). Whilst every construction project is of course very different the DHSS model differentiates between types of construction and construction values, so is a good starting point for pre- dicting this projects cash flow. The generic model for this project is shown on the right.
In order to generate a cash flow projection it is important to have an accurate estimate of the time the project is expected to take. The estimated time has been achieved using Bromilow’s Time/Cost model (1969) and case studies of similar projects. Using both methods allowed for a greater accuracy in estimat- ing the time required, and should mean greater accuracy in the resulting cash flow model.

DURATION OF PROJECT
Bromilow’s model was first published in a 1969 paper included in the journal ‘The Building Forum’, and explains the relationship between duration, size and cost of a construction project. He identified the formula as:
T = K * CB where T = Time, total working days
K = Constant, a characteristic of building time performance
C= Cost of project in millions
B = Constant, indicative of the sensitivity of time performance to cost level. (Financing construction p139)
For the UK the value of B is given as 0.082, and K is 491.
Using this model and the GDV already calculated the total time predicted is:
T = 491 * 117.686 0.082 = 725.91 days or:
725.91/252 (total working days in a year) = 2.88 years or 35 months.
In contrast using case studies from similar projects such as the ‘The Movement’ development in Greenwich or ’Circus Street’ in Brighton, there is an average construction period of approximately 31 months.
This report uses an average of the two methods to give the total duration of the project from start on site to practical completion of 33 months.

The graph below shows DHSS the standard curve for the project, which allows analysis of the cumulative cost of the project at any given point during its duration. The formulae for the DHSS model is shown on the right, with the tabulated calculations included for reference. The reader is directed to page six for a tabulated breakdown of the predicted quarterly payments the project will require.

TABULATED CASH FLOW
Below is the tabulated quarterly cash flow forecast for the project. Read Left to Right for the total element value and relevant retentions. Read top to bottom for total due each quarter which reflects the amounts indicated using the cash flow model on page 5. Preliminaries have been evenly distributed across the project, as have consultants fees and the infrastructure (CIL) costs, owing to their estimated nature.

DEVELOPERS EQUATION - RESIDUAL METHOD CALCULATION
This section seeks to evidence the financial viability of the Preston Barracks scheme. Given the construction cost of £117.7 million, and the £150 million Gross Development Value that Cathedral Group Holdings believes the
project will achieve; we are able to use the residual value calculation to arrive at a residual land value. This takes into account discounting measures and an assumed rate of interest on project financing (see appendix
6.5).
Expected Value
Gross Development Value £150,000,000 Site value
Expected Costs Expected value £150,000,000
Construction Costs £117,700,000 Expected Cost £146,780,000 -
Finance (drawn down as per cash flow £ 11,430,000 Max value on £ 3,220,000 Calculations and @ 5% interest. (See project completion
Appendix 6.5 for workings)
Developers profit @ 15% of £ 17,650,000 P.V at 2.88 years @ 26% 1/(1+0.26)2.88 = 0.51
gross development value = 0.51 * 3,2200,00
Maximum site value today = £1,642,200

JUDGEMENT
Based on the evidence presented in this report the project is financially viable
providing the purchase costs of the land is not above £1.6million.
Beyond this pure financial viability it is important to acknowledge the other
benefits that this project would bring, which may mean that medium term
financial viability is not as important as the long term social and economic
gains that would come from the proposed uses of the Preston Barracks site.
Considering all benefits, and that this report is primarily aimed at the
University’s interests, the author concludes that the project should go ahead.

6. APPENDIX
6.1 Reasoning for CIL rate
The Brighton and Hove Economic Development and Culture Committee are in the process of de-
veloping proposals for the CIL rates that will be applicable in Brighton and Hove. However their
meeting notes from July 2013 do give indicative amounts for other comparable cities and these
are shown below:
This report has chosen a flat rate of £100 per sq meter as it approximates the levels of fee shown
and would allow for easily identifiable revision should a more accurate figure become available.
6.2 Design and Consultants Fees
The figure of 10% of construction costs was chosen from information given on the Designing Build-
ings Wiki. The tables used are shown below:
6.3 Average costing calculations from BCIS information
See page 8
6.4 Health Centre size
Part one of the coursework for BE215 required students to look at case studies of the proposed
buildings. During this analysis the figure of 2000m2 was found to be a reasonable assumption of size
for the health centre. In addition to this 2000m2 approximates the size of the health centres shown
in the BCIS calculations on page 8, reinforcing that this is a reasonable size to assume.
6.5 Residual Value Calculations
See below the excel calculations used for interest amounts on the construction costs. The 15% de-
velopers profit came from discussion with the authors employer Geoffrey Osborne LTD and the 26%
anticipated land increase value is a figure given by the Estate Agent Savill’s, and found to be
widely quoted in press articles.

Assignment: Stage 2 (Individual Study)
Student: Roland Martin
Student # 13833214
Title: Assessment of Size & Configuration of Buildings
Site: Preston Barracks, Lewes Road, Brighton BN1
Scale 1:1250 Date: May 2015
ASSESSMENT OF SIZE & CONFIGURATION OF THE BUILDINGS:
The proposed development layout (left) is
designed to satisfy the client brief and
maximise the value of the site by
designing for 444 homes which exceeds
the 350 target whilst meeting planning
requirements regarding internal size and
housing density.
Factors affecting overall cost of the
project:
Strategic decisions:
Procurement type
Decision regarding MoD, Crimean war
building (if planning allows): whether to
leave them or relocate them and use
the building (or its site)
Decision regarding Mannock building
(if planning allows): convert it for new
use (if so, what) or replace it
Site / construction related:
Potential pollution of aquifer
Removal of hazardous materials
(including possible munitions)
Landscaping (varies according to new
building placement)
Busy Lewes Road (traffic management
/ delivery logistics)
Nuisance (neighbouring properties)
Watts Bank (to NW) is a Site of Nature
Conservation Importance.
The student made the following strategic
decisions (planning approval assumed):
Procurement: competitive lump sum
tender (tender documents to include
drawings, full specification & Bill of
Quantities)
Relocate the MoD, demolish the
Crimean war building and construct the
affordable housing on the same area
(1299m2)
Redevelop the Mannock building as
premium private residences (providing
1750m2 of the 21,450m2 requirement).

2 Cost Plan (for Developer)
2.1 Introduction
Cost planning enables a client to visualise not only overall project
expenditure but to where and when payments must be made to get it built.
The client will usually appoint a cost consultant – Quantity Surveyor – as
the expert for this task.
The student has assumed a traditional construction contract (lump sum,
competitive tender) as the procurement route.
The main contractor may be issued an estimated cost plan as part of the
tender documentation. On larger projects they will then price a supplied
Bill of Quantities (BQ) and use their own price data from previous projects
or use the BCIS database or similar to price each element.
Cost plans evolve throughout a project lifecycle, starting as a high level
estimate of costs – when less information is available – and, depending on
the form of contract, ending with a detailed measured breakdown of each
activity and construction element. The detailed plan will be used by the
Contract Administrator to manage expenditure during the contract period.
Different models are used to generate costs – the appropriate one depends
on the level of data available. Early in a project, a single rate method (Brook,
2008) is usually employed, either using superficial gross floor area (GIFA) or
functional units (hospital beds, student accommodation units). As design
details emerge, multiple rate methods enable approximate and finally
accurate quantities to be priced.
Students are instructed to use the BCIS database of historical cost data to
create their plan. This student assumes that the project is at the Concept
Design stage of the RIBA Plan of Work (2013) which means detailed designs
are not yet available and much must be estimated. The appropriate cost
model is the BCIS ‘Group Elemental Analysis’ level, which breaks costs down
into the following:
Construction elements (group level only)
External works
Preliminaries (contractor’s on site costs)
Contingencies
Design Fees (main contractor, if any).
2.2 Notes on BCIS data used:
All figures have been re-based to Q2 2015 to account for inflation and
price changes
Figures include the contractors profit
Contractors design fees (element #9) relate to Design & Build contracts
and, as they only represent circa 1 or 2% of the contract sum of
selected projects have been deleted. Consultants fees (including
design team) are added as a non-construction cost falling outside the
main contract (see below)
External works, contingencies and varied greatly between BCIS
projects:
○ Costs for Preston Barracks could be more accurately stated after
detailed site exploration: external works, preliminaries,
contingencies sums and the design approach would all be affected
○ The student has used averaged figures for these elements because
it is not feasible (within the assignment scope) to produce more
accurate estimates – see assignment stage #1 for Preston Barracks
site factors that would affect costs
○ According to Brook (2008) common final cost percentages for non-
building related work is: preliminaries (10-15%) contingencies (5%)
whilst external works vary widely.
Non-construction contract costs are not covered in the BCIS database. This
student has used the following estimated costs:
Demolitions: £396,000 for 13,200m2 @ £30/m3; sources - Building
magazine (2006) and web sources (BCIS only has minor demolition
work relevant data)
Removal of hazardous materials (inc. possible munitions): £267,150
for 5,343m2 for Mannock building & demolitions @ £50/m2
(BadAsbestos, 2015)
Relocation of MoD (Crimean war building demolished): £1,000,000 for
another 500m2 GIFA facility on the outskirts of Brighton
Professional fees: 10% of construction sum for design consultants,
project managers etc. (Designing Buildings Wiki, 2015)
Site investigation: £50,000 lump sum (recent lecture)
Planning fees: £100,699 (£19,049 + £115 / 75m2 GFA (Brighton and
Hove City Council, 2015)
Building control fees: quotes on demand only where works exceed
£100,000 (Brighton and Hove City Council, 2015) but estimated as
£100,000 using Designing Buildings Wiki (2015)
The following is excluded:
Land acquisition / management costs (details not known; estimation

3 Tender Cashflow Forecast (for Client)
3.1 Assumptions
BCIS data was analysed and the following programme timelines selected for each of the
construction types. Client assumptions regarding phasing has also been included:
○ Student Accommodation: 30 months (start as soon as possible)
○ Affordable Homes (20% of 350): 15 months (start as soon as possible)
○ Private Homes (Mannock building redevelopment): 15 months (start as soon as possible)
○ Private Homes (new build): 60 months (4 equal phases of 15 months)
○ Health Centre: 9 months (completion to coincide with that of the final housing)
○ Central Research Lab: 18 months (start as soon as possible)
○ Retail Space: 12 months (completion to coincide with that of the final housing)
Construction elements (group level) are distributed on the programme timeline after reviewing a
an example by (Illingworth, 2000) and sense checking cost against the S curve norm which says
that 25% of costs are incurred in the first third of the contract period, 50% in the middle third and
25% in the final third
At its most detailed level, time is broken down into quarter years in order to fit into the A3 format
required. It is apparent that many periods are either over or under-stated regarding likely costs
incurred however the student understands the S curve principle
Contingencies (BCIS stage #8) have been included as these values represent the average required
for (sampled) projects submitted to BCIS
Infrastructure: an allowance of 10% of the contract sum (student’s estimate) includes:
○ Landscaping
○ Roadways, footpaths & paved areas
○ Street lighting & traffic management
○ Car park (100 bay)
○ Amenity area
Retention money: 3% is selected as a common value. The principle is to hold back money due to
the contractor to maintain motivation...half is released at Practical Completion and the last half at
the end of the Rectification Period (often 12 months).

4 Developer’s Equation
4.1 Introduction
The Cathedral Group call Preston Barracks a £150 million development on their website however the scope is
slightly different and rental values (which dictate yield) are constantly changing. This student has estimated
current letting values to provide an updated development value. This will be used to ascertain the current land
value, which in turn informs the decision to develop or not
Sources for estimated letting values:
○ Student Accommodation: University of Brighton average current halls of residence rates
○ 350 homes (1, 2 and 3 bed apartments): www.zoopla.co.uk average value of current similar lets in Brighton
○ Retail space: www.shopproperty.co.uk average value of current similar lets in the south (currently a very
variable market with sinking values (Retail Week, 2014) and ‘POA’ as advertised requires negotiation)
○ Central Research Lab: rates are difficult to establish. The student sense checked quality office rates in central
Brighton (£250/m2 p.a.) and used this value because (a) it should be representative and (b) this represents
the opportunity cost to the developer
○ Health Centre: www.rightmove.co.uk lists very few currently for let in the south. The student sense checked
quality office rates in central Brighton (£250/m2 p.a.) and used this because of the reasons stated above for
the CRL
YP perp @ 7% is used because it is a representative property yield
Purchaser's cost @ 6% is taken from lecture notes provided
Marketing budget has not been researched – the figure used is for example only
Agents' & solicitors' fees percentages are taken from lecture notes.
