Private Sector Services
Andersen Planning Consultants specializes in managing real estate development projects from
conception to construction. We facilitate communication among team members and manage
the time-line, community process and public agency interface to free your specialists up to do
what they do best.
Project Assessment and Due Diligence
Before you buy the land, hire an architect or approach a market expert, call Andersen Planning
Consultants. We can help you with due diligence, which includes not only researching
documents, but talking to critical parties who might block or place restrictions on your project.
Why spend the money on expensive architectural plans and market studies if the political and
legal environment will not support your project or if significant changes may need to be made
early in the process? Let us help you make sure the next step is worth the investment.
Project Management
Once the political and physical environment has been assessed, and it appears a project is
feasible, Andersen Planning Consultants will help you develop a strategy for addressing any
outstanding concerns, build a project team, and facilitate work among team members to keep
your project moving forward through its financing and entitlement phase.
Redevelopment DDA/OPA Negotiations
If your project is located within a Redevelopment Area, you may be able to secure public
assistance for your project through a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) or an
Owner Participation Agreement (OPA). Andersen Planning Consultants can help you with this
process.
Community Outreach and Facilitated Problem Solving
Our goal is to ensure that your project moves forward in a timely manner. In our experience a
smooth and timely process is best achieved with strong support from all interested parties.
While this ideal may not be reachable, the time to find out is very early in the process. Andersen
Planning Consultants is experienced in facilitating both small and large group meetings, from
community forums to staff-level problem solving sessions. We can help you get the issues on
the table where they can be addressed.
Communication, Communication, Communication
Timing is critical, but its communication that keeps the project moving in the right direction.
Andersen Planning Consultants emphasizes communication in our project management work,
and manages any time line adjustments that are required to make the project come together as
planned.
