Economics.
Comprehensive financial management of the project, from design through to practical completion.
Financial
Oversight.
The success of an architectural project depends upon a rigorous command of its economic dimensions. OPUS manages the financial oversight of the operation at every stage, from design through to practical completion.
Ensuring coherence between technical choices, programme objectives and the defined budget, this service provides the project owner with permanent visibility over committed costs, foreseeable developments and available margins.
Every decision is informed by a structured economic analysis, preventing drift and securing all financial commitments.
From initial sketches
to tender documentation.
The first two phases of our economics service cover the full scope of preparatory work, from initial analysis to the preparation of contractual documents.
Upstream project analysis
From the earliest design stages, OPUS assesses the economic feasibility of the project. The technical and financial analysis of proposed solutions enables architectural choices to be guided with clarity, integrating budgetary constraints from the very first sketches. The costs associated with planned works are estimated with precision, providing the project owner with a reliable initial projection before any commitment is made.
Financial structuring of the project
At the detailed design stage, OPUS prepares the quantitative cost plans that will serve as a reference throughout the operation. The preparation of tender documentation receives dedicated attention: each work package is analysed, each item verified, to ensure the legibility and coherence of all economic documents submitted to contractors.
From contractor selection
to practical completion.
From the analysis of tenders to the economic monitoring of the site, OPUS ensures the financial closure of the operation in accordance with the commitments made.
Contractor selection
The analysis of tenders represents a decisive stage. OPUS examines the proposals received from tendered contractors, verifies the coherence of quoted sums against initial estimates and produces detailed analytical reports. This precision in evaluation enables discrepancies to be identified, choices to be secured and the finalisation of construction contracts to proceed under the most favourable conditions.
Site phase monitoring
Throughout the duration of works, OPUS maintains continuous economic monitoring. Payment applications are verified before the issue of payment certificates. Variations — modifications, contract amendments, adjustments — are integrated within the overall budget monitoring. The verification of price adjustments and the preparation of final accounts ensure the financial closure of the operation in accordance with the commitments made.
