Staffed by professional church facility growth experts, Walker Church Consulting helps small and medium-size churches throughout the nation minimize risk while transforming building visions into reality. This can be challenging, given findings by F.W. Dodge Corp., a construction information agency. It reports that 60 percent of church building projects fail. Of those that are built, 70 percent exceed budget by 30 percent to 50 percent. Walker Church Consulting helps church leaders avoid pitfalls, ensuring successful and enjoyable design/build experiences.SETTING SIZE, SCOPE, BUDGET Because church building committees typically make decisions during the project, but likely have little experience in church design or construction, Walker consultants help determine the size, scope and budget before design. Skipping this critical step is one of the main reasons projects exceed budgets. Lack of planning can render irreversible consequences. Good planning, however, yields a solid foundation—straight, level and true.EVALUATING AFFORDABILITY, FEASIBILITY Walker Church Consulting does this by providing tools that balance the ministry space, determine affordability and feasibility, separate wants from needs, and establish confidence in church leadership and members. Our consultants also provide communication tools to unify church members with a heartfelt sense of ownership in the building project— crucial for financial support, and to raise money successfully.
