Why Rula
Delivering homes at scale takes more than attractive drawings. You need a partner who can mobilise overnight, flex resource for one plot or 200, and guarantee technical rigour from concept to completion. Rula Partners blends senior UK leadership with a 400‑strong global production network, giving you the pace of an internal department—minus the overhead.
Clients’ Problems & Solutions
Clients’ Problems | Rula’s Solutions |
---|---|
Feasibility packs arrive late or over‑optimistic, slowing land bids. | Co‑ordinated 72‑hour yield studies that blend planning, civils and cost inputs, letting your land team move first. |
“Pretty” planning drawings prove unbuildable once levels, highways and services are added. | We own the design from planning to working drawings, locking in adoptable roads, levels and engineering detail before submission. |
House‑type creep balloons NHBC checks and production time. | A disciplined modular portfolio keeps bespoke designs on a short leash, shaving weeks off standard‑detail sign‑off. |
Consultant models clash on site — drainage vs. structure, M&E vs. risers. | Weekly federated BIM clash sessions run by Rula stop conflicts before they pour concrete. |
Site RFIs stall progress; answers drip in days, not hours. | Every project includes a 48‑hour RFI SLA and senior technical support through to handover — keeping the programme moving. |

All design direction and QA are led by senior UK architects at Rula Partners. We use trusted global production partners for drafting to give you scale, but every drawing is checked and issued by our UK technical leads.
For feasibility studies we can start within 24 hours and issue a coordinated yield pack inside 72 hours. Planning or technical commissions typically mobilise within 5 working days, subject to data receipt.
Revit is our primary platform, federated via Autodesk Construction Cloud. We also exchange DWGs, IFCs and Navisworks clash reports as required by house‑builder protocols.
Yes. Rula Partners carries £5 million Professional Indemnity and £5 million Public Liability cover, compliant with major plc house‑builder requirements. Certificates are available on request.
Absolutely. We routinely tailor national portfolios to meet local planning or engineering constraints—updating elevations, footprint options and Part L/SAP data as required.
Yes. A dedicated lead architect chairs frequent coordination meetings and manages a live clash log in the CDE to ensure civils, structures and M&E packages integrate cleanly.
Feasibility studies are fixed‑fee; planning and technical stages are either lump‑sum or plot‑rate, depending on scheme size. We provide a clear scope and programme before work begins.
Yes. Every commission includes a 48‑hour RFI SLA and optional site‑visit package covering start‑on‑site, superstructure sign‑off and pre‑completion checks.
We frequently onboard mid‑project. After a short audit of existing information we issue a gap analysis and programme to bring drawings up to Rula QA standard without delaying the build.
