Development management
End to end, from feasibility and approvals to contractors and handover — run through our six stage gates.
How we work
Six gates. No surprises.
Our stage-gate system: checkpoints where we test cost, risk and return before the next dollar is spent. You’ll know where your project stands at every gate.

assets/img/approach.jpgWhy gates
Value is easy to see. Harder to keep.
Most development risk is committed early, when the least is known. So we hold every project at a gate until the numbers earn the next step.
If a project doesn’t pass, it stops — and you hear it from us first. That’s the promise: we only take on work where we can add value, and we tell you where your project stands at every gate.
-
01
Site & opportunity
What you get: A straight yes or no, with reasons.
We look for the value others miss: zoning, catchment, access and the operator who needs this site.
Tested: Is there real value here — and can we add to it? -
02
Feasibility
What you get: A feasibility summary you can read in ten minutes.
Yield, cost, timing and return are modelled before money is committed.
Tested: Does the project stack up on conservative numbers? -
03
Tenant & capital
What you get: Named tenants and partners, not hypotheticals.
We find the operator first and line up capital partners around a de-risked plan.
Tested: Pre-commitment and funding in place, or a clear path to them. -
04
Design & approvals
What you get: Approved plans and an updated budget.
The building is designed around the business that will use it, then taken through council.
Tested: Design fits the operator, the site and the approval. -
05
Delivery
What you get: Monthly updates, drone footage and live numbers.
Contractors are appointed and the build is run against the budget, with progress reported every month.
Tested: Cost, programme and quality, every month. -
06
Handover & leasing
What you get: A performing asset — and a partner for the next one.
The asset is completed, the tenant moves in and the value is realised.
Tested: Delivered as promised, leased as planned.
Our mandate
To enhance project value through a strategic development program unique to Komodo — recognising value in projects where others may deem it impossible.
That ability comes from our focus on People, Partnerships and Property: a high-performing team, with strong partnerships that deliver outcomes beyond expectations.
We’re passionate about property, and about delivering projects that raise the standard for the industry. Bring us a site, a feasibility or a half-finished project — we’ll pick it up at the right gate.
What we do
Six services. One partner.
Full service, or join at any stage. Every engagement runs through the same stage gates.
Property advisory & consulting
Straight advice on what a site or asset could become, what it would cost and whether it stacks up.
Acquisitions, sales & leasing
We find and secure sites, sell completed projects and lease them — operator first.
Marketing, PR & community engagement
Campaigns, media and community programs that keep buyers, tenants, neighbours and councils informed from first idea to final tenant.
Asset & property management
We look after completed assets so they keep performing for owners and tenants.
Business management & operations
Complete business management for project entities and partners: finance, reporting and day-to-day operations.
The Komodo way
Informed. Connected. Engaged.
Accountable, consistent and transparent with every stakeholder — landowner, investor, tenant and neighbour.
I · Informed
You hear it first.
Progress, costs and problems are reported before you have to ask.
C · Connected
One named contact.
Every project has a Komodo person who answers the phone and owns the outcome.
E · Engaged
Neighbours first.
Communities get a real say, early — not a letterbox drop after the fact.
