MetaConnex drastically reduces the time and cost required for the outline planning stage, enabling developers to move forward with a detailed, low-risk masterplan within days instead of months.

MetaConnex drastically reduces the time and cost required for the outline planning stage, enabling developers to move forward with a detailed, low-risk masterplan within days instead of months.

Traditional Process

In the traditional approach, outline planning is a critical phase that includes the creation of a masterplan, sustainability model, and a semi-detailed structural architecture and landscaping plan. This phase often involves extensive data gathering, consultation, and multiple revisions.

Cost

London

£1M - £2M

Manchester

£800K - £1,5M

Time Required

Typically takes 6-12 months.

Risk

Significant upfront investment with a risk of delays due to the complex approval process and potential for multiple iterations based on feedback from planning authorities.

MetaConnex Process

MetaConnex Process

MetaConnex leverages pre-data linked BIM objects connected to sales cost, carbon performance, and other essential metrics. This process integrates 2D and 3D geographical data sets from sources like OS Maps, Google Place, longitude/latitude coordinates, UPRN, and title ownership data. The MetaConnex Builder then synthesises this information to provide a semi-detailed, low-risk planning application.

Outputs

Traditional Process

Traditional Process

Following the outline planning stage, traditional processes involve negotiating MoUs (Memoranda of Understanding), exclusivity agreements, and developer agreements with landowners and local councils. This phase often requires significant legal work and negotiations, especially if a Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) is necessary.

Cost

London

£250K - £500K

Manchester

£200K - £400K

Time Required

3-6 months

Risk

The time-consuming nature of legal negotiations can delay the project, increasing costs and financial exposure.

The detailed planning application involves the submission of all required documents, including environmental and structural surveys. This phase is typically the most time-consuming and resource-intensive part of the development process.

Cost

London

£1M - £2M

Manchester

£800K - £1,5M

Time Required

6-12 month

Risk

High, as any issues uncovered during surveys or objections from the community or planning authorities can lead to delays and increased costs.

MetaConnex Process

MetaConnex, having integrated all necessary data layers during the earlier stages, is prepared to submit a full detailed planning application. The only additional requirements are the environmental and structural surveys, which are streamlined due to the comprehensive digital twin already developed.

Cost

Minimal Planning Costs

Minimal, primarily the costs associated with five key meetings with council planners and surveys. 

Time Required

1-2 months

Risk

Significantly reduced due to the early and integrated use of digital twin technology, which preempts many of the issues typically discovered later in the process.

Equity Stake Based on Sunken Costs

Equity Stake Based on Sunken Costs

Equity Stake Based on Sunken Costs

The equity stake would be equivalent to the total value of sunken costs avoided and the reduced time in development stages directly impacted by MetaConnex.


Calculation
For example, in a Manchester-based project where MetaConnex saves between £7,080,000 and £14,060,000, you could negotiate an equity stake equivalent to this amount. This stake could be structured as a percentage of the total project value, reflecting the value added by reducing both financial outlay and project timeline.

Time Value Savings

Calculated based on reduced development time (considering interest rates or opportunity cost of capital).

MetaConnex Costs

Assume a conservative estimate of £500,000 for implementation across the stages covered.

RoI

With the savings significantly outweighing the costs, the RoI would be substantial, demonstrating the value MetaConnex brings to the project.

Equity Negotiation

Use the calculated savings to negotiate an equity stake in the development project. For instance, if the total savings in a Manchester project are £7,080,000, propose an equity stake corresponding to this value in the total project equity.

Time-Linked Value

Emphasise the benefits of reduced time to market, which enhances the project's overall value and can increase its market valuation.

Impact on Project Financing

Lower Borrowing Costs

The reduced timeline and lower project risk can lead to more favourable financing terms, reducing overall borrowing costs.

Enhanced Investor Confidence

The efficiency and cost-effectiveness of MetaConnex can boost investor confidence, making it easier to secure funding at favourable rates or higher valuations.

Optimizing Equity Stakes

By excluding the manufacturing and construction phase from the equity calculation, the focus is on the direct, predictable savings achieved through MetaConnex. This refined strategy provides a strong basis for negotiating equity stakes based on the significant value MetaConnex adds to the development process, resulting in a higher RoI and a more attractive proposition for all stakeholders involved in the project. For a project in Manchester, this strategy could justify requesting an equity stake ranging from 15% to 35% of the development, depending on the specific savings and time reductions achieved.

MetaConnex Equity Positioning

For a project in Manchester, based on the ROI from MetaConnex, a reasonable equity stake to request would be in the range of 20% to 35%. This percentage accounts for direct cost savings, time savings, and the reduced risk profile of the project. The exact stake you request can be adjusted depending on negotiations, the specifics of the land deal, and the overall project scope. This strategy ensures that you capture the full value that MetaConnex brings to the development.

Cost Savings as Equity

In Manchester, the cost savings from using MetaConnex range from £7,080,000 to £14,060,000. These savings reduce the overall project risk by lowering the financial exposure and capital required for development stages like planning, design, and sales preparation.

Time Savings as Equity

The reduction in development time—3.5 to 6.5 years—is also a significant factor. This time saving not only reduces carrying costs (e.g., interest on loans, taxes) but also accelera

Percentage of Development Cost Savings

Assuming the total development cost in Manchester (excluding manufacturing and construction) is approximately £47 million to £93 million, the MetaConnex savings of £7.08 million to £14.06 million represent 15-28% of the traditional development costs.

Risk Reduction Premium

Given the substantial reduction in project risk and the accelerated timeline, you could argue for an equity stake higher than the cost savings alone. This additional premium accounts for the strategic advantage of quicker market entry and lower financial risk.

Base Calculation

With cost savings alone, you could justify requesting an equity stake of 15-28%.

Enhanced Equity Request

Considering both the cost savings and the additional value from time savings and risk reduction, you might target an equity stake of 20-35%. This range reflects both the tangible savings and the intangible benefits of using MetaConnex.
