How we run a project
A five-tier organization that supports every project. From statutory roles (lead engineer, safety supervisor) through specialty subcontractors to independent inspection — accountability is always clear at every level.

CLIENT
Final decision-maker on design concept, budget, schedule, and specifications. Monthly review meetings keep you informed and in control.
ARCHITECT
Overall design lead — concept, function, code compliance. During construction, attends site reviews and approves shop drawings as the design supervisor.
MANAGER
Statutory head of the architect office under Architect Act §24. Responsible for all in-house architects' work and final quality assurance.
STRUCTURE
Structural calculations, seismic performance, and MEP (electrical / plumbing / HVAC) design. Handled in-house or with specialist firms depending on scope.
SITE REP
Total site lead. Single contact point for client, design supervisor, and subcontractors. Lives on site to oversee progress, safety, and quality.
LEAD ENG.
Statutory technical lead under Construction Business Act §26. Held by a 1st-class Construction Management Engineer who decides on construction method, schedule, and quality.
SAFETY
Under the Industrial Safety and Health Act, oversees site-wide safety. Runs daily morning briefings, hazard-prediction (KY) activities, and safety training for all workers including subs.
QA / SCHEDULE
Shop-drawing review, material inspection, in-progress quality checks, weekly Gantt-chart scheduling, and cost control — handled by the same role for tight feedback loops.
INTERIOR
From late construction to handover, coordinates furniture, drapery, lighting, and art installation, with on-site styling supervision.
STRUCTURE TRADES
Scaffolding · rebar · formwork · concrete · steel · carpentry · waterproofing · roofing — the trades that build the shell. Each trade is a long-term partner with 10+ years of in-house track record.
FINISHING TRADES
Plastering · interior finishing · painting · joinery · electrical · plumbing · HVAC · exterior works · landscaping — every finishing and MEP discipline. Each sub assigns a foreman accountable to Towa's quality standard.
PERMIT
Private designated inspection agency reviews pre-construction permits, conducts mid-construction inspection, and certifies final completion under the Building Standards Act.
WARRANTY
Housing-warranty-fund insurance covers structural defects and waterproofing for 10 years post-handover. Any defect repair cost is paid from the insurance, not the client.
OPT. AUDIT
Owners may engage an external architect office for parallel construction supervision — adding a fully independent quality-control layer at the owner's discretion.
