What Is Turnkey Construction?
In the context of construction, turnkey solutions mean we handle everything about your project from start to finish. From planning to designing to putting the final touches on the building, we take care of everything until it’s ready for you to take the reins.
That’s where the name turnkey comes from – upon completion, all you have to do is ‘turn the key’, and your project is ready to go with no additional work needed.
The turnkey approach offers a single point of responsibility for everything, so you don’t have to juggle multiple suppliers. Efficient and convenient, turnkey construction projects are becoming ever popular amongst specialist industries.

Advantages of Turnkey Solutions
Turnkey construction comes with a wide range of significant advantages:
Efficiency
Unlike traditional building projects, turnkey solutions utilise one single point of contact, with everything streamlined under Sweet Projects. Communication is more effective and projects are more efficient, and we work closely with you to ensure we not only meet, but exceed our commitments.
With Sweet Projects handling everything to do with your project, you can focus on your business and what you do best.
Quality
With every element of your project covered by us, there’s no risk of inconsistencies occurring between the engineering, architecture, planning, or procurement.
We only work with trusted suppliers with proven results, so you can be assured that your project will be of the highest quality. Plus, our Project Directors are hands-on at every stage of the process, from planning to completion, ensuring each aspect of your project is up to our high standards.
Delivery
Project delivery is our priority for you. We’re focused on innovation, embracing and creating cutting edge techniques that keep us and you ahead of the competition.
Turnkey construction ensures you retain full control of your project via a strong partnership with our project managers. With each stage fully planned out and visible to you from the beginning, we utilise creative solutions to keep delivery on time.
Turnkey Solutions For Your Sector
Data
We’ve been working in the data sector since we began, focusing on creating and upgrading data centres to meet the growing demand.
Our construction teams work on data centre projects from end to end, from assembling the right team to installing top of the range cooling systems for maximum efficiency. We live and breathe the challenges and opportunities that come with data centre construction, and strive to deliver above and beyond for each client.
Defence
The defence industry is highly specialised, and requires secure and modern environments to continue delivering. We’re proud to have worked with some of the biggest defence companies in the world, upgrading and constructing secure areas to meet the needs of a highly specialised industry.
Agile, focused, and efficient, we work with experts in defence construction to address any niche issues, and take pride in every element of our work.
Energy
Energy construction projects can be complex, requiring a multidisciplinary approach to tackle problems before they arise. Our engineering expertise spans design, construction, and outfitting of energy projects, focusing on compliance and efficiency to create energy projects that meet future needs.
Turnkey Solutions vs. Traditional Construction
The main difference that sets turnkey construction a cut above is the single point of contact overseeing the entire process. Unlike the traditional construction process, which involves you juggling multiple contractors, turnkey contractors manage everything for you.
Traditional construction processes also involve longer timeframes due to the lack of cohesion between each phase, and a greater risk of miscommunication between each point of contact.
On the other hand, turnkey construction eliminates all of these uncertainties, simplifying communication and streamlining timelines for more efficient builds. We take the weight off so you can focus on what you do best, and we handle the rest.
The Turnkey Construction Process
At Sweet Projects, we oversee the entire turnkey construction process, with one point of contact keeping you updated. Here’s how it works:
Brief
Once you get in touch with Sweet Projects, we’ll arrange a meeting for you to take us through your exact requirements. No project is too big – we can adapt our approach to your unique needs.
Planning
Once you’ve briefed us on your needs, we’ll begin the planning process. Depending on your brief, we’ll begin to figure out the best team for your needs, what the scope of the project is, and scalability for long-term and growth.
Design
When the planning has been completed and approved by you, we’ll get your project designed. This includes any buildings, sustainability considerations, and future proofing. We work with industry professionals to ensure every base is covered and you’re nothing but thrilled with the final design.
Procurement
After the design stage, we move into procurement. This involves securing all the materials and labour we’ll need to complete your project, as well as site preparation, so there are no delays once construction begins.
Construction
Now the fun can begin – the physical construction of your project. We’ll begin erecting the shell of any buildings planned in, installing power systems, and managing quality control throughout.
Completion
When completed – only to our exacting standards – we’ll give you the keys, and your new facility will be ready to use from day one. Whether you’re in the data, defence, or energy sector, you can count on a fully compliant, and operational environment tailored to meet the demands of your industry.

Turnkey Construction FAQs
Yes, the scope of a turnkey project can be changed after it has started. It’s a misconception that turnkey projects are inflexible – if you want to change anything about your project, simply let us know.
Transparent communication and documentation are key to ensuring changes are smoothly incorporated without disrupting the overall project.
EPC stands for Engineering, Procurement, and Construction. In an EPC contract, the contractor is responsible for all aspects of the project, including design, sourcing materials, and building – similar to a turnkey project.
However, turnkey solutions are delivered fully complete and operational, ready for immediate use with minimal input from the client at handover. While EPC focuses on the process, turnkey emphasises the final, ready-to-use outcome.
When selecting a turnkey construction partner, consider experience, portfolio of completed projects, and ability to manage the entire process from design to delivery. Look for strong communication practices, a reputation for meeting deadlines, and a commitment to quality.
Here at Sweet Projects, we tick every box, so don’t hesitate to get in touch to discuss your needs.
