Gleeds has been selected to help deliver almost £275 million worth of residential developments across Greater London.
The industry consultant will provide cost and project management services for developer Danescroft Land on the projects.
The first phase of works involves the production of feasibility studies for three brownfield and greenfield sites at Bromley by Bow, Hammersmith and West Drayton. The schemes are to be run through a central framework and will comprise both commercial and residential units, with Gleeds advising on development management, assisting during the planning process and appointing the supply chain.
In Bromley, Danescroft Land will work with the London Legacy Development Corporation and other local landowners, to lead the master planning of the Bromley-by-Bow South regeneration area. Gleeds will manage the demolition, brownfield site redevelopment and associated infrastructure works on the scheme.
The consultancy will also be responsible for overseeing demolition works, as well as supervising the construction of 88 new residential units, in West Drayton.
The Hammersmith transformation project will involve the conversion of 2,000 sq m of existing office space into 53 residential apartments.
Jonathan Stewart, speaking on behalf of Gleeds, said: "We are delighted to be working with Danescroft Land.
"We are currently reviewing design proposals and providing advice on cost effective construction options across these three very diverse projects. These distinct schemes have an element of affordable housing and Danescroft Land have a considerable track record for developing complex and challenging sites."
Dominic Fryer, Director of Danescroft Land, added: "We're excited to be working with Gleeds on our latest residential schemes. Their extensive knowledge of the South East residential market will be invaluable to the successful delivery of the pipeline of work we have planned across the region."
