A successful facilities master plan doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Instead, the process must include a diverse group of stakeholders to amplify the voices of those who will be impacted - both directly and indirectly. Your needs are front and center as we cater our time-tested approach in order that we may best partner to prioritize goals and develop long term solutions. We’ll help you succeed in all aspects of your facilities master plan, including facility and capacity analysis, growth projections, space programming and more. Throughout our collaborative process, we will work with your organization and the community you serve to create a facilities master plan that aligns with your current and future strategic plans.
Across all market sectors, our teams embrace a philosophy of listening first, then leading. We understand that every client is different, and previous solutions for other clients may not match your objectives. Thus, we take the time to understand your vision and values to align our industry expertise in developing innovative solutions. We see our facilities master plans as living documents capable of flexing and adapting as the anticipated needs of our clients shift. Like a roadmap, our strategic plans provide a clear path to our clients for moving from where they are currently to where they want to be in the future. Through benchmarking, we can align short-term and long term goals. We’ve seen firsthand how this philosophy creates ownership and builds momentum toward achieving your desired outcomes.
To support our listen-first approach, the Wold team follows a process to ensure our facilities master plans align with your objectives. These steps include data gathering and analysis, defining needs, building consensus amongst stakeholders and implementing the plan. This all-encompassing process plays a pivotal role in establishing consensus on the recommended solutions and solidifying funding support for projects. Below are a few steps we use during our facility master planning process:
Initial meetings with organization leadership to better understand the history, tasks and expectations.
Collecting data to be reviewed and analyzed by committees to understand needs.
Stakeholder review of information, individual perspective and development of criteria for resolution.
Meeting(s) to understand the depth of issues and needs to be addressed by a strategic plan.
Development of facilities master plan options for consideration and analysis.
Reviewing of options studied and initial recommendations to address needs.
Adoption and direction for implementation by the board transitioning into the design.
As an industry leader with proven experience in delivering effective and creative facility master plan results, Wold will assist you to expand the lens of opportunities for you and your community. We recognize there is no one-size-fits-all for master planning solutions. Instead, we integrate our holistic expertise with your vision and values to produce a living document that includes short and long term solutions. We seek to make a difference in the communities we serve, and because of this, we will continue to be there if needs arise throughout our facilities master plan partnership.
