Everything you need to know about finding a project management shopfitter

Project management is an important element of any shopfitting exercise, which typically involves a myriad of contactors and consultants. Having an effective project manager or management team is crucial given the number of players involved. Coordinated communication is therefore essential for any project to succeed.

Shopfitting can entail the involvement of a range of trades and professions, including: architects, interior designers, retailers, buyers, electricians and plumbers - amongst others. Shopfitters will have a range of skilled artisans in their employ, though joinery and carpentry are the traditional trades involved.

These are the basic steps that will typically be involved in managing a successful shopfitting project:

• source a reliable project manager
• define the scope of the project
• determine available resources such as available budget
• assemble project team to implement the project plan
• obtain feedback on preliminary plan from team and relevant stakeholders
• adjust and then implement the project

All shopfitting work is regulated by the Building Code of Australia (BCA), as well as local and national standards – so bear this in mind when designing a project.
