01

Why we publish our process in full

On a fit-out project, a project owner's biggest fear is rarely aesthetics — it is the things you cannot see coming: a price that inflates mid-project, a schedule slipping with nobody telling you, documentation issued only in Vietnamese that your accounting team or overseas head office cannot read, and not knowing who to call after handover. AIC publishes the entire five-step process openly so you can benchmark it before signing. No hidden steps, no costs waiting to appear. Each stage below states what AIC does, what you receive, and which worry it removes.

02

Four commitments that run through every step

These are not slogans — they are terms AIC puts on the table before signing, measurable and recorded in writing.

4 hours

Transparent BOQ quote

Send drawings or book a site survey — receive a detailed, itemised cost estimate within 4 working hours.

Locked price

No silent price inflation

The price is locked to the signed BOQ — no hidden extras, no clause that lets the price change unilaterally; scope changes only by written, agreed addendum.

1,200m²

In-house workshop for the core scope

A 1,200m² production workshop (plus a 600m² office and a 5-floor showroom) — joinery and finishes produced by AIC itself, with quality controlled at the source.

24 months

Warranty + three maintenance visits

A warranty of up to 24 months plus three scheduled maintenance visits in months 3, 6 and 9 after handover.

03

The five-step process

Each step states what AIC does, what you receive, and which worry is removed.

  1. 01

    Step 1 — Survey & requirements intake

    AIC receives your design drawings or surveys the site in person — measuring, photographing existing conditions and recording building constraints (working hours, building management rules, existing MEP and fire safety systems). You receive a site condition record and a preliminary scope list to align on. Worry removed: no quote built on wrong assumptions. Every number that follows stands on real site conditions, not remote guesswork.

  2. 02

    Step 2 — Transparent BOQ quote within 4 hours

    From the drawings or survey, AIC returns a bill of quantities (BOQ) itemised by line item and unit price, within 4 working hours. You see the full cost structure — which parts AIC self-performs and which parts licensed specialist partners deliver — not one opaque lump sum. Worry removed: no hidden pricing. You can benchmark every line against your internal budget and against other contractors before deciding.

  3. 03

    Step 3 — Design, bilingual documentation & scope lock

    AIC completes the 3D concept and technical documentation, presented bilingually in Vietnamese and English so your technical team, accountants or overseas head office can all read them. Both sides definitively lock the scope, materials, schedule and cost — all recorded in the BOQ and contract before anyone touches the site. Worry removed: no language barrier and no grey zones in scope. Signed means the price is locked to the BOQ — no unilateral extras.

  4. 04

    Step 4 — Construction with in-house QC — one GC point of contact

    AIC acts as General Contractor (GC) with in-house quality control (QC) throughout. The core scope — joinery and finishes — is produced in AIC's own workshop, not blindly handed off. Specialist packages such as mechanical & electrical (MEP) and fire safety (PCCC) are executed by licensed specialist partners, while AIC remains the General Contractor holding QC acceptance and single-point responsibility. Progress is reported against the agreed milestones. Worry removed: no being bounced between contractors. If anything comes up, you call one number.

  5. 05

    Step 5 — Handover, as-built dossier & warranty of up to 24 months

    Acceptance follows the committed milestones, and handover comes with a complete as-built dossier. Then a warranty of up to 24 months and three scheduled maintenance visits in months 3, 6 and 9 — AIC comes back to check proactively, without waiting to be reminded. Worry removed: no being abandoned after payment. The relationship runs through your entire first year of real operation.

04

Four common FDI project-owner worries — and how the process removes them

A quick recap so you can see it: each worry maps to a specific step, not to a generic promise.

Fear of mid-project price inflation

An itemised BOQ within 4 hours and a price locked to the signed contract — no hidden variation clauses. You know the total cost before work starts; scope changes only by written, agreed addendum.

Fear of language and paperwork barriers

Drawings, BOQs and contracts all come in bilingual Vietnamese–English versions so your technical team, accountants and overseas head office can read and approve together.

Fear of schedule slipping with no warning

The schedule is locked to contract milestones and updated regularly; AIC works as a single-point General Contractor, so there is no scene of contractors blaming one another.

Fear of being abandoned after handover

A warranty of up to 24 months plus three proactive maintenance visits in months 3, 6 and 9. AIC keeps coming back to check throughout your first year of operation.

05

Transparency commitments — in writing

Things AIC states clearly from the start, without waiting to be asked.

A BOQ itemised line by line
Every item carries its own quantity and unit price — you can benchmark against other contractors and your internal budget.
Price locked to the signed BOQ
No clause that lets the price change unilaterally. Scope is adjusted only when you request it — and it is re-quoted in writing for approval before work proceeds.
A clear split between what AIC does and what partners do
The core scope is produced in AIC's own workshop; mechanical & electrical (MEP) and fire safety (PCCC) go through licensed specialist partners — with AIC as General Contractor holding QC acceptance and single-point responsibility.
Bilingual Vietnamese–English documentation
Technical drawings, BOQs and contracts all come in bilingual versions for internal approval and head-office review.
An as-built dossier at handover
Handover includes a complete as-built dossier for your records and for operations and maintenance later on.
Warranty up to 24 months + maintenance
Handover comes with a warranty of up to 24 months and 3 scheduled maintenance visits (months 3, 6, 9) — long-term support, not handover-and-disappear.

Frequently asked questions about the process

Is the 4-hour quote accurate, or just a ballpark?

The 4-hour BOQ is an itemised estimate built on the drawings or site survey available. When the input documentation is complete, it is the basis for signing a contract with the price locked to the BOQ. When the brief is thin, AIC states clearly which parts are preliminary and will be finalised once technical drawings exist.

What does the bilingual documentation include?

Technical drawings, the BOQ and the contract all come in bilingual Vietnamese–English versions, so your technical team, accountants and overseas head office can read and approve together.

Does AIC self-perform everything, or subcontract?

The core scope that decides aesthetics and durability — joinery and finishes — is produced in AIC's own workshop. Specialist packages such as mechanical & electrical and fire safety are executed by licensed specialist partners, while AIC is always the General Contractor holding QC acceptance and single-point responsibility.

What if something changes during construction?

The signed price is locked to the BOQ. Costs change only when you request a scope adjustment — and it is always re-quoted in writing for your approval before work proceeds. No silent variations.

What exactly do the warranty and maintenance cover?

A warranty of up to 24 months from the handover date, plus three scheduled maintenance visits in months 3, 6 and 9. AIC proactively contacts you and returns to inspect at each visit.

Which FDI businesses has AIC worked with?

AIC has 10 years of experience (starting as Nhân Việt in 2016, renamed AIC in 2019), has earned nine major FDI & corporate brands — including POSCO and Realtek alongside CMC and Droppii — and delivers 60 to 100 projects a year.
