Pharmacy Fit Out & Design in Perth

Being a customised process that is tailored specifically to your needs, each pharmacy fit-out project timeline is calculated on your needs and requirements. You may require a basic “facelift” or a full interior fit out. Please contact us for an accurate answer to this question.

1. Initial Consultation:
   • The process begins with an initial consultation between the pharmacy owner and Access Projects. During this meeting, the client discusses their requirements, objectives, and budget for the project.
2. Site Assessment:
   • We conduct a thorough assessment of the existing space. This includes measuring the area, evaluating the condition of the premises, and identifying any potential challenges or opportunities for improvement.
3. Regulatory Compliance:
   • We determine and assess the specific regulatory requirements and guidelines for pharmacies in the area. This includes compliance with healthcare and pharmaceutical regulations, building codes, and zoning laws.
4. Concept and Design Development:
   • If the client, does not have any design plans, our in house designer collaborates with the client to create a pharmacy design. This includes layout, interior design, lighting, signage, and placement of fixtures and equipment.
5. Budgeting and Proposal:
   • We provide the client with a detailed project proposal that includes estimated costs, timelines, and a breakdown of expenses. The client reviews and approves the proposal before moving forward.
6. Permitting and Approvals:
   • Obtain the necessary permits and approvals from local authorities, health departments, and regulatory agencies. This can involve submitting architectural plans and ensuring compliance with all regulations.
7. Construction and Fit-Out:
   • Once permits are secured, construction begins. This phase involves:
     • Demolition and removal of any existing structures or fixtures.
     • Structural work, if needed, such as building partitions or reinforcing walls.
     • Installation of plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, and other utilities.
     • Interior finishes, including flooring, wall coverings, and ceiling installation.
     • Custom cabinetry, shelving, and display units.
     • Installation of pharmacy-specific equipment, such as prescription counters, medication storage, and compounding areas.
     • Lighting, signage, and branding elements.
8. Quality Assurance:
   • Regular inspections and quality checks are conducted throughout the construction process to ensure that work is progressing according to the approved plans and meets industry standards.
9. Testing and Commissioning:
   • All systems and equipment within the pharmacy are tested and commissioned to ensure they are functioning correctly and safely. This includes testing of HVAC, security systems, and pharmacy software.
10. Final Inspection and Compliance:
    • A final inspection is conducted to ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements. Any deficiencies or necessary corrections are addressed.
11. Handover and Training:
    • Access Projects provides training to pharmacy staff on the proper use of equipment, storage, and any new technology or systems installed.
12. Post-Completion Support:
    • We offer post-completion support and maintenance service.

Whether you need council approval for your pharmacy fit-out depends on your location and the specific regulations and zoning requirements in your area. In many cases, establishing or renovating a pharmacy will require some level of approval or permits from local authorities.
