RIBA Plan of Work Stages Explained
​
The RIBA Plan of Work provides a clear structure for the design and construction process. It breaks a project down into stages, helping clients understand what happens at each point and which members of the professional team may be involved.
At Studio Sett, we use the RIBA Plan of Work as a practical guide, but we explain it in a way that feels clear and useful for clients.
