Introducing the NBS Consultancy Bundle

Feb 27, 2024 |NBS

The new Consultancy Bundle from NBS grants you exclusive access to expert insights and technical guidance on project queries, giving you more time to focus on design and your business.

Are you confident about specification writing?
Up to date with the latest legislation and standards?
Do you have the skills in-house to deliver high-quality specifications?

For over 50 years, customers have looked to NBS for knowledge and guidance on best-practice in specification and product information, through many evolutions of the built environment and digital technologies, and we have trained thousands of users on NBS Chorus functionality.

However, NBS are frequently asked if we could offer training about specification writing and respond to technical issues about real project specifications. The Consultancy Bundle provided by the NBS Schumann team will help you understand specification writing and answer your questions.

What is the Consultancy Bundle?

The Consultancy Bundle is a subscription for NBS Chorus users, and connects you to the NBS Schumann team via a range of consultancy services and special content.

A new offering for 2024, the NBS Consultancy bundle provides exclusive access to NBS Schumann expertise on specification writing, in-depth knowledge on technical subject areas and guidance on project specification queries.

Since the launch of NBS Schumann specification writing and design management services, developing specifications on large and complex projects, many NBS customers have requested technical support on specification subjects like risk and procurement.

You can buy the Consultancy Bundle as an add-on subscription to NBS Chorus, and you will receive NBS tokens to be redeemed for various consultancy services.

What are NBS tokens?

Digital tokens to the value of your Consultancy Bundle subscription are added to your organisation when you purchase the bundle. These can be redeemed for a range of services delivered by NBS teams including technical query responses and meetings with the team.

These services will use your tokens on a ‘burn down’ basis where the duration of a query or consultancy meeting will reduce your account by a specific number of tokens.

When you run out of tokens, you can top-up at any time, including at your renewal and upgrading your subscription.

What can I spend my tokens on?

Ask the Experts: Connect with consultants via NBS Chorus for direct assistance on specification queries.
Meet with an expert: Schedule online sessions with our team to address your specific challenges.

Coming soon: More services to be added.

How do I buy tokens?

Visqueen launches Ultimate Self Adhesive Membrane for hydrocarbon and VOC-contaminated sites

The construction industry faces growing challenges when building on increasingly complex brownfield sites. Alongside the need for effective waterproofing, developers and contractors must now address a wider range of ground contaminants, including hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and hazardous ground gases, while maintaining programme efficiency and installation quality. Against this backdrop, Visqueen has expanded its gas protection and waterproofing portfolio with the launch of Visqueen Ultimate Self Adhesive Membrane, a new hydrocarbon and VOC-resistant self-adhesive tanking membrane. Developed as the latest addition to the Visqueen non-foil gas barrier range, the new membrane combines proven gas barrier and waterproofing performance to help specifiers address multiple site challenges with a single solution.

Siderise: Helping to bridge the gap between Gateway 2 approval and on-site fire protection

While the new building safety regime hasn’t fundamentally changed what requirements higher-risk buildings (HRBs) must meet to comply with the Building Regulations, it has significantly increased the breadth, depth and volume of evidence that must be supplied to demonstrate this. As a result, project teams have had to adapt the way they work and even look beyond their roles to understand how their actions may impact the next Dutyholder in the chain. For specifiers, this can include considering what supporting services are offered with life safety-critical elements to enable correct design, installation and maintenance. Early engagement with manufacturer technical specialists can help identify any practical challenges that may arise onsite. Then, during construction, these services can help support the translation of design intent into reality so that buildings are safe for occupation.
