Concept & feasibility
Define the intended role of the zone, its potential users and the relationship with its location and market. Commercial and technical assumptions should support the same development concept.
From a free zone concept to establishment and operation.
Acon Projects FZ-LLC’s scope includes the development, establishment and operation of free zones. This connects infrastructure and real estate development with the organisation needed to support businesses using the zone. The physical plan and operating framework need to be considered together from the beginning.
The Group’s project development, architecture, engineering and construction activities provide a connected delivery scope. Free zone planning must identify the intended users, infrastructure requirements and local establishment processes, then translate those requirements into a coordinated development and management approach.

Define the intended role of the zone, its potential users and the relationship with its location and market. Commercial and technical assumptions should support the same development concept.
Connect land use, circulation, plots, facilities and shared infrastructure with the operating requirements of the zone. Planning needs to consider both initial development and the potential sequence of later stages.
Bring access, utilities and supporting infrastructure into the development brief. Technical coordination links these systems with the requirements of tenant facilities and shared operational areas.
Coordinate the project with the applicable local establishment and approval processes. The relevant responsibilities and requirements should be identified as part of the development structure.
Connect design, procurement and construction with the intended development stages. The delivery programme should support the physical and operational requirements of bringing the zone into use.
Consider the services, responsibilities and management arrangements needed after establishment. An operating framework connects infrastructure, user requirements and the ongoing organisation of the zone.
A free zone is more than a collection of buildings or plots. Its usefulness depends on reliable infrastructure and the way shared services and responsibilities are organised. These operating considerations should inform the development brief and the order in which facilities are delivered.
Acon Projects brings its project development and management scope to this relationship. Enquiries should identify the location, intended business activities and stage of the opportunity so that the appropriate planning, delivery or operational scope can be discussed.

Identify the location, intended users, development objectives and preliminary commercial direction.
Coordinate the master plan, infrastructure and operating requirements within a staged development brief.
Connect local processes with design, procurement and construction responsibilities.
Develop the management and service arrangements required to support the zone’s continuing use.
