Maria Trofea Hulgado, Gozar Planners Phils. Inc. does not maintain an in-house engineering staff but retains and collaborates with reputable engineering consultants:                         Structural Engineering:                       Aromin+Sy and Partners                         Electrical Engineering:                        Raladin A. Mojica & Partners                         Mechanical Engineering:                     R. J. Calpo and Partners                         Water and Wastewater Eng’g.:          NBF Water and Wastewater                        & Fire Services Eng’g.:                       and Fire Services Design Inc. In-house Technical staff: All of Gozar Planners Phils. Inc.’s designers & technical staff is required to have an academic background or degrees in either Architecture or Architectural Engineering or in Architectural Technology, Civil Engineering and/or Interior Design.  All are proficient in computers and many drawing and common office software common in the industry. Our registered architects have Bachelor of Science degrees in Architecture who are "creative" designers but are also very effective in preparing drawings for instructional construction. This requirement assures the project of not only innovative designs but a sound understanding of building systems, construction assemblies, construction detailing, which is key in the preparation of drawings that respond to the methods familiar to contractors, avoids delays and diminishes the need for change orders. Firm's Specialty Staff: Arch. Alvic Samson is the firm's executive / project architect and interior designer and assumes responsibilities for architectural and interior finishes; color, paint, product, selection, as well as interior furnishings.  Artist Emil Davocol, an off-board photographer, and graphic designer is our principal graphics artist, print, media, and audio-video design consultant. A member of the Camera Club of the Philippines, he is a multi-awarded master photographer of the club. 

B.      FIRM SIZE:

   Gozar Planners Phils. Inc. is a special small sized firm maintaining an in-house staff of 8 architects, 2 engineers, 1 interior designer 3 clerical staff, and a group of off-board support personnel, corresponding on-line via the internet and by dial-up links, for drawings production, study model making, data gathering and audio – video presentation work. • Small firms have the benefit of having the architect as principal being intimately involved with every aspect of the project.  But, even as a small firm, our off-board retained consultants and support personnel provide the necessary technical level of staff to meet the demands and schedules for larger projects.            • Large firms typically can offer greater levels of technical staff and usually meet schedules.  However, to exist they must have several large projects in contract at a given time.  There is limited principal involvement, the firm is dependent upon the capabilities (and availability) of its "project architects" and the success of the project is directly related to that individual’s performance.             • Thus, with our set-up, a small but efficient firm, who is able to expand when required by the project, will be able to deliver. This set-up is currently becoming the trend with many performing technical firms with the aid of automation and the use of computers, wireless communication and the Internet.  IV.  PERFORMANCE            For the past ten years, Gozar Planners Phils. Inc. has consistently delivered completed projects within budgets and schedules set by the clients or project managers. An example, the recent PS Bank Tower project (1997) in Makati was completed 2 months short of schedule, and below budget to the delight of our clients, Metrobank .             Most of our clients are repeat clients. The Metrobank Group alone has provided us with a stream of design projects since 1990 up to the present ranging from high rise buildings to large master planning projects like the Bay Gardens Development – a multi-development project consisting of parks, residential towers, cultural, commercial and entertainment all set in a garden setting. (See our website- http://gozar.biz/DetBayGardens.html)             The firm has worked with large and reputable consultants that prove the level of experience and status of our small firm.
