GAD was set up in 2012, inspired by a revolutionary idea of Gianpiero Aresi MRICS: to provide an innovative, highly structured and extraordinarily efficient service, focusing on aspects of cost engineering, capable of creating collaborative relationships with top starchitects and with the leading names in building development processes worldwide.
ALL-ROUND EFFICIENCY
AND PROFESSIONALISM
COST MANAGEMENT
In any design process, keeping to a budget is an aspect of primary importance: the key element in assuring the achievement of a quality end product.
MONITORING
To deliver a winning project, it is essential to know how and when the budget is being spent, and optimize decisions on the way it is used.
TRANSPARENCY AND CONFIDENTIALITY
The exposition of all data that can contribute to the success of the project — albeit only data considered non-confidential
EFFICIENCY
The overriding aim for GAD is to exceed the expectations of every client, an objective achievable by virtue of embracing obligatory values.
UPDATING
GAD believes strongly in the benefits that progress and technology can bring, and has therefore been quick to invest in numerous resources connected with the research and study of Building Information Modeling (BIM) systems.
INNOVATION
The company also processes mathematical models to help with the preparation of preliminary estimates consistent with the design intention, even this has not yet been translated into graphic format. In addition, it has developed software for order management and internal cost control.
An objective as important as this can achieved only with a highly qualified team like that assembled by GAD: 25 individuals with many years of experience and multiple skills ranging from the technology of constructional elements to structural, fire-protection and building systems engineering, taking in mathematical modelling of computation algorithms, under the guidance of partner and Technical Director Giovanni Paolo D’Adda, operating in the heart of Milan at the company’s prestigious headquarters in Via Maurizio Quadrio.
It is not only technical skills that make the difference. GAD also boasts an intimate knowledge of the international market and a network of connections with leading companies in the sector, meaning that for each project, it can single out and coordinate the professionals and firms considered best able to work as partners on guaranteeing the best possible results.
Cost engineering, planning, budget preparation, preliminary estimates and bid documentation, fire protection, contracts, safety coordination, team management, selection of companies, supervision of works and much more: the service offered by GAD goes far beyond the bounds of general project management, providing a guarantee of efficiency and dependability that architecture practices and engineering firms have already chosen to make their preference.
The overriding aim for GAD is to exceed the expectations of every client, an objective achievable by virtue of embracing obligatory values such as precision and quality offered at every step of the process, training and professional refresher courses made available to the team, thorough knowledge of regulations concerning the sector, unfailingly clear and direct communication with the client, and real time drafting of all necessary documentation.
GAD believes strongly in the benefits that progress and technology can bring, and has therefore been quick to invest in numerous resources connected with the research and study of Building Information Modeling (BIM) systems. GAD is able to apply the principles of BIM to all disciplines, coordinating the activities of designers, and has developed tried and tested procedures to enable the exporting of sensitive data for computation purposes. The company also processes mathematical models to help with the preparation of preliminary estimates consistent with the design intention, even this has not yet been translated into graphic format. In addition, it has developed software for order management and internal cost control — a useful tool for all professional practices — designated CM: Contract Manager.
The exposition of all data that can contribute to the success of the project — albeit only data considered non-confidential — reflects the added value that GAD is able to provide to clients.

TRASPARENZA
E RISERVATEZZA
Trasparenza è l’estensione metaforica del significato della parola “trasparente (“poter vedere attraverso le cose”): esso implica apertura, comunicazione e responsabilità, che si traduce in atti, comportamenti, situazioni, procedimenti, in cui tutto è aperto, palese facilmente verificabile e controllabile.
Riservatezza è la caratteristica di quanto è improntato a discrezione e al rispetto del segreto: essa implica il diritto a mantenere il controllo e l’inviolabilità dei propri dati, che si traduce in controllo, verifica ed attenzione alle procedure.
Queste due caratteristiche sono imprescindibili per la nostra attività. Il cliente deve essere accompagnato con procedure chiare e trasparenti, ma anche tutti gli attori del Progetto, devono essere messi nelle condizioni di ricevere le informazioni corrette per raggiungere il successo comune.
L'attenzione alla divulgazione dei dati condivisibili, senza svelare quelli sensibili è la riservatezza imprescindibile per la garanzia del cliente.
