Plan the work
Site layout, building placement, parking, and circulation. Coordination of surveys, easements, setbacks, and site constraints.
Civil + site engineering
Resolve the site before it constrains the building.
PRM integrates site planning, grading, drainage, utilities, and access with the architectural and engineering package. The site strategy connects the owner's development goals to surveyed conditions, infrastructure, and the review process.
“
Clear scope, coordinated information, and accountable decisions from planning through delivery.
What PRM brings
What to bring to the first conversation.
Coordinate the details
Grading plans, spot elevations, and drainage interfaces. Stormwater collection, conveyance, and management coordination.
Carry it through
Site and civil drawing packages appropriate to the assignment. Utility coordination records and design assumptions.
Site feasibility + development planning
Early site decisions influence building placement, finished-floor elevations, service routes, parking, and construction access. PRM coordinates available surveys, utility information, geotechnical findings, and development criteria to identify what is known and where investigation is needed. Boundary and subsurface information are obtained from the appropriate project specialists.
- Site layout, building placement, parking, and circulation
- Coordination of surveys, easements, setbacks, and site constraints
- Accessible routes, service access, and emergency access interfaces
- Earthwork strategy and connections to existing improvements
Grading, drainage + utility coordination
Surface drainage and utility routes are reviewed alongside foundations, entrances, landscape areas, and equipment needs. The work distinguishes domestic-water demand, sanitary-sewer capacity, stormwater management, and service sizing so that different infrastructure questions retain their own design basis.
- Grading plans, spot elevations, and drainage interfaces
- Stormwater collection, conveyance, and management coordination
- Water, sewer, and utility connection layouts
- Erosion-control coordination and construction-phase site requirements
Civil documents + construction interfaces
Civil deliverables are coordinated with the building drawings and the agencies reviewing the site. Utility provider comments, infrastructure constraints, and field information are tracked through design updates. Technical responses connect the civil intent to installation questions without losing revision history.
- Site and civil drawing packages appropriate to the assignment
- Utility coordination records and design assumptions
- Review-comment tracking and responses
- Field clarification, revised details, and closeout information
Working relationship
What to bring to the first conversation.
PRM tailors the deliverables, participating disciplines, and level of support to the assignment. Share what is available; the team will identify missing inputs, confirm responsibilities, and define the next useful milestone.
- Boundary/topographic survey and utility records
- Geotechnical information and prior approvals
- Proposed use, building program, and site schedule
Common questions
Define the next step.
Can this service be part of a broader PRM assignment?
Yes. PRM can coordinate this scope with the other architecture, engineering, BIM, and construction services required for the project. The proposal identifies the included deliverables, responsibilities, assumptions, and milestones.
What if the project is already in progress?
Send the current drawings, open issues, review comments, and immediate deadline. PRM will first assess the available information and define a practical scope for joining the work.
Bring the real constraint
Let’s define what the project needs next.
Share the location, current documents, target milestone, and the decision that cannot slip.
