Development Brief Review
Clarify the intended use, target market, scale, timing and decision criteria for the proposed development.
Property and construction feasibility studies in Harare and Zimbabwe covering development options, preliminary cost, site constraints, project staging, buildability and development advisory.
Before committing significant capital to design or construction, a development should be tested against its objectives, constraints and likely delivery conditions. Our feasibility and development-advisory work brings together site information, concept planning, preliminary cost, infrastructure requirements and delivery risks so clients can make better-informed decisions before progressing to a full appointment.
Based in Avondale, Harare, DC Designs & Construction serves suitable projects throughout Harare and across Zimbabwe, subject to project scope, access, programme and mobilisation requirements.


The final scope is tailored to project stage, available information and the client’s required outcome.
Clarify the intended use, target market, scale, timing and decision criteria for the proposed development.
Identify access, existing structures, services, drainage, planning and buildability issues that may affect the project.
Compare practical development approaches, phasing strategies and potential site layouts at an appropriate early level.
Use available information to establish order-of-cost ranges and the main cost drivers requiring further definition.
Highlight major approvals, procurement, sequencing, infrastructure and technical dependencies before commitment.
Provide a structured next-step roadmap covering the design, costing, approvals and delivery information still required.

Our design, construction, engineering, water and energy capabilities allow related project interfaces to be identified early rather than treated as isolated tasks.
Harare-based support with mobilisation for suitable projects across Zimbabwe.
Deliverables, assumptions and exclusions are defined before execution wherever practical.
Reviews and inspection points are integrated into the agreed delivery process.
Architecture, costing, construction, project management, boreholes and solar can be coordinated under one project conversation.
It is an early assessment of whether a proposed development is practical enough to justify further design, approvals, costing and investment decisions.
Yes, at a preliminary level. Early estimates are based on available project information and stated assumptions rather than the accuracy of a completed BOQ.
No. Feasibility helps identify likely constraints and next steps, but statutory approvals remain separate formal processes.
Yes. Where budget, infrastructure or market conditions favour staged delivery, the study can compare practical phasing options and their dependencies.
Send your project location, current stage, drawings or technical information where available. We will help define the next practical step and the information required for a reliable quotation.
