Illustrative workflow example.

A signed lease doesn't mean the space is ready.

  • Between site selection and opening day, every location depends on surveys, drawings, permits, contractors, equipment, vendors and approvals
  • When those steps are disconnected, space can sit unused while the team works through avoidable delays
  • REAL helps project managers coordinate the work from the first assessment through occupancy and turnover

The problem

Every opening depends on four things landing together.

The project team needs information from the transaction team. Contractors need approved scope. Furniture delivery depends on construction progress. Facilities needs records that often arrive long after the project is marked complete.

  • Lease and site requirements

    Confirmed
  • Approved design and permits

    Permit pending
  • Construction and installation

    Start depends on permit
  • Operational readiness

    Handoff planned

Location ready to open

A delay in permits moves the opening milestone.

01

Understand the site before the project begins.

Project decisions often depend on conditions discovered during the transaction. REAL connects the lease, landlord work letter, field measurements, drawings, site surveys and building assessments into the project record. Project teams can review available information, identify missing inputs and assess requirements before committing to the scope and schedule.

02

Keep every milestone and dependency in view.

Design approvals, permitting, procurement, contractor availability and installation schedules all affect when a location can open. REAL organizes the project timeline, responsibilities, milestones and outstanding dependencies in one connected workflow. As new information arrives, project managers can review its effect on the next stage and coordinate the required action before a delay compounds.

Coordinate teams, vendors and work across every location.

A portfolio can contain major build-outs, small relocations, expansions, remodels and installation work. REAL helps teams organize projects by location, region, type, manager and stage, with the relevant documents, responsible parties and outstanding actions attached. Project leaders can review which projects need attention and which teams are responsible, without collecting separate status reports from every manager.

04

Keep procurement, budgets and project delivery connected.

REAL's existing construction workflows help build estimates, compare contractor bids, identify scope gaps and track changes against the approved budget. Project Management & Delivery uses that information alongside the schedule and project responsibilities, so cost decisions remain connected to the work required to complete the location.

Linked project action: review schedule impact before contractor mobilization.

05

Give smaller moves and installations a proper workflow.

A furniture move or small office modification may not justify the same process as a major construction project, but it still requires coordination. REAL can support structured requests, vendor assignment, spending limits, schedules and completion tracking for smaller projects and move-related work. Teams can manage recurring work using the appropriate workflow and connect it to existing facilities or work-order systems.

Complete the turnover before closing the project.

A project isn't complete when construction ends. Punch-list items, as-built drawings, equipment manuals, warranties, vendor details and financial closeout information all need to reach the teams responsible for operating the location. REAL organizes the closeout record and helps teams track missing documents and outstanding responsibilities. When facilities receives the completed project, the relevant vendor and warranty information can accompany it into ongoing operations.
