Apollo NZ GlobalStart Project Brief

Buildings & Large Structures · Commercial

Project-led steel building systems for showrooms, markets, service centres and commercial facilities.

Apollo can review structural building packages for selected commercial projects where efficient steel construction, large open interiors and coordinated envelope options suit the project brief.

Quick project answers

What should a commercial buildings brief include?

01

Can Apollo supply this type of building internationally?

Apollo can review suitable international projects and coordinate an agreed manufacturer supply pathway. Final structural design, documentation, freight, erection support and local responsibilities are confirmed against the actual destination and project.

02

Does Apollo install the building?

No. Apollo is supply-only. Erection, site supervision, foundations, services, local engineering sign-off, commissioning and statutory approvals remain with the manufacturer, approved specialist contractors and the client-side project team as applicable.

03

What should I send first?

Start with the project country, building use, approximate length, width and height, required clear span, drawings if available, openings, target timing, site exposure and any known wind, cyclone, seismic, fire or local-code requirements.

04

Is a website specification enough to approve a building?

No. Building systems are project-specific. Published information describes the supply pathway only; the final structure and compliance pathway must be based on manufacturer engineering and the destination's local professional and statutory requirements.

Project priorities

The commercial buildings should be defined by the project requirements before a structural system is selected.

01

Customer-facing envelope

Façade, glazing, entries, canopies and signage interfaces can be developed separately from the primary frame where the architectural brief requires more than a standard industrial envelope.

02

Services

HVAC, lighting, fire systems, ceilings and specialist equipment should be coordinated with structural loads and clearances.

03

Front + back of house

Retail or public-facing areas often require different comfort and finish standards from storage, workshop or service areas.

04

Approval pathway

Commercial occupancy, fire, accessibility and local planning/building approvals remain destination-specific.

How Apollo fits

Apollo starts with the RFP, then qualifies the correct manufacturer and supply route.

Apollo is supply-only. Structural design responsibility, foundations, erection, site supervision, fire engineering, services, local engineering review, statutory approvals and compliance remain project-specific and must be confirmed in the final manufacturer and local-project scope.

01

Define the building brief

Country, intended use, overall dimensions, clear-span requirement, height, openings, programme and available drawings establish the starting point.

02

Confirm the design criteria

Known wind, cyclone, seismic, corrosion, fire, thermal and local-code requirements are identified for manufacturer and local-engineer review.

03

Develop the supply package

The selected manufacturer develops the project-specific structural, cladding and accessory package together with the available calculations, drawings and fabrication documents.

04

Coordinate manufacture + export

Apollo coordinates the agreed supply package and commercial pathway. Site works, erection, local engineering sign-off, approvals and commissioning remain with the appropriate specialist parties.

Market pathways

Move between regions without losing the project context.

Choose the regional hub first, then the country where a dedicated pathway exists. Product suitability, documentation, freight and local project responsibilities are still confirmed against the actual site.
