We consider that the planning appraisal is one of the most important and often under-rated planning services provided to clients.

A well-researched and prepared appraisal will set out in an easy-to-read format, the relevant opportunities and constraints applicable to a potential development opportunity.

​

Our planning appraisals cover all of the relevant issues, with the core services as follows:

• Identifying planning policies relevant to a site and/or proposal.

• Review of planning history.

• Establishment of existing/lawful uses.

• Site assessment to identify planning opportunities and constraints

• Overview appraisal, identifying key issues.

• Comprehensive appraisal covering all planning considerations.

• Due diligence reports prior to purchase.

• Marketing planning appraisals to promote sites.

• Planning strategy advice.

 

WBM work in close partnership with our clients to develop business cases that ensure highly successful change projects.

We can provide a full range of capital and revenue-based business cases, from the simplest options appraisal to an extensive Five Case exercise. 

​

Our work encompasses all stages in the process from strategic to commercial (procurement) and management (delivery) cases. We can also review business cases developed in-house to provide objective challenge, identify gaps and sanity-check your findings.
