Will I have a single point of contact?

That’s an excellent question 👍 because interior projects in Delhi NCR usually involve multiple teams (carpenters, electricians, plumbers, painters, vendors). If there’s no single point of contact (SPOC), you’ll end up chasing everyone yourself.


✅ How Professional Firms Handle It

1. Dedicated Project Manager (PM) / Site Supervisor

  • Mid-to-large firms (Livspace, MADS Creations, Amodini Systems, Purple Studio) assign you a project manager.
  • This person handles all vendors, labour, and scheduling.
  • You only talk to them, not 5 different people.

2. Designer as SPOC (in Small Studios / Freelancers)

  • The designer themselves is the SPOC.
  • They handle drawings, vendor coordination, and site visits.
  • Works well for smaller 2BHK/3BHK projects.

3. Contractor-Only Model (⚠️ risky)

  • Some contractors expect you to coordinate between carpenters, electricians, and plumbers.
  • No SPOC → leads to confusion, delays, and blame games.

💡 What You Should Ask

  1. Who will be my single point of contact during execution?
  2. Will the same person handle both design & execution, or separate teams?
  3. How often will my SPOC visit the site / send progress updates?
  4. If the SPOC is unavailable, who is the backup contact?

⚠️ Red Flags

  • They say “you can call anyone from our team” → no accountability.
  • Only labour contractor is managing → no design oversight.
  • Changes discussed with one team don’t reach others.

✅ Pro Tip

Insist on one SPOC written in the contract — either the designer or a project manager. Ask for their direct WhatsApp/phone contact so you get regular updates.


👉 Would you like me to create a “Single Point of Contact Clause” (ready-to-add to your agreement) that clearly states who’s responsible for communication, so you never get caught between multiple people?
