Development Solutions

Concept & Feasibility

It is important to have a well-planned and clearly articulated project concept for the success of any business; hence at IHC we tackle every project with a holistic approach, taking into consideration every element that contributes to its success.

From examining its financial feasibility and design configuration to conducting feasibility studies; we will not only present a careful review of the location (in the existing market scenario) but also outline possible challenges and opportunities for success. Depending on each project’s mix, this approach allows a customized framework of recommendations and ensures that the design solution meets the vision and helps forms the DNA of the development strategy.

Design

The initial concept gives birth to the design process

We at IHC strive to align the finest design solutions with accurate specifications, keeping in mind budgets and the client objectives and work in close coordination with Owners/ Operators to ensure their design specifications are met and the final design is aesthetically appropriate and operationally responsive to all intended uses.

Strategic Business Plan

For any new project, post the initial feasibility study, it becomes important to evaluate what will be the initial strategy on the ground, from year one to year five.

IHC with its decades of pre-opening experience is able to assist clients to create a comprehensive business plan, not only with financials planning but also with an initial strategic business plan and a detailed marketing strategy, enabling the roadmap to success.
