House Design, Permit & Execution Planning (LPH 1–9)

<p>Benatrix offers project-specific planning services for new homes, extensions, conversions and modernization projects. The scope can be agreed for individual stages or across the nine service phases used in the German HOAI framework.</p><table><thead><tr><th>Phase</th><th>Typical planning focus</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>LPH 1</td><td>Basic evaluation and clarification of the task</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 2</td><td>Preliminary planning and initial alternatives</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 3</td><td>Design planning and coordinated project concept</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 4</td><td>Permit planning and preparation of the required application documents</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 5</td><td>Execution planning with detailed drawings for construction</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 6</td><td>Preparation of tender documents and quantities</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 7</td><td>Support during tender evaluation and contract award</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 8</td><td>Site supervision, documentation and defect follow-up</td></tr><tr><td>LPH 9</td><td>Post-completion support and review of defects during the agreed period</td></tr></tbody></table><p><strong>Important:</strong> The exact services, deliverables and remuneration are agreed in writing for each project. Structural design, fire protection, building services, energy consulting, surveying, soil investigations and other specialist services are not automatically included. Where required, suitable specialist planners must be involved. A building permit is issued solely by the competent authority and therefore cannot be guaranteed.</p>
