EXPERIENCE AND STUDY OF MUSEOGRAPHICAND ARCHITECTURAL DEFINITION

An audit allows us to take stock of the project, to meet the various participants, get to know their expectations, to build up themes, to take in the location, the subjects, the collections, to think about the issues and put them in perspective, above all to position the project...
The tourism and cultural audit is devoted to carrying out a geographical review in different regions but also thematic scales, to study the target audiences, determinefashions, define potential, the opportunities of the project, to establish or re-direct the project.

ARCHITECTURAL AND MUSEOGRAPHIC PROGRAMMING

Programming takes each focal point, analysing, grouping, detailing and giving all the fundamental characteristics of the project, information required for presentation of the operation: the nature of each space, theme, content and/or collections, the activity that will unfold; special technical requirements, cost estimates, operational calendar…

FEASIBILITY STUDIES
AND LEGAL CONDITIONS

The comparative analysis consists of comparingthe project with three other similar organisations. It provides information on operating principles, politics, practices, strengths and weaknesses, public expectations, pitfalls to be avoided and helps in determining best practices.
The legal study proposes solution(s) in terms of the most suitable means of managing all the functional criteria described. In the operational study provisional accounts are drawn up based on three attendance assumptions determined on the basis of the chosen scenario, the recommendations given, the pitfalls to be avoided and the operating principles.

The Atelier des Charrons can be involved at different levels, from experience in creating your museum projects, exhibitions, interpretation centres, development of natural and cultural heritage...

DESIGN AND DIFFERENT SCENARIOS This stage refines the project by summarising and making a hierarchy of items, all the while taking into account the place, its advantages and limitations. Content is therefore developed by documentaryresearch and meetings with specialists.We also work on different scenarios. Brainstorming sessions bring together the different approaches of the team: audience, content, aesthetics, technical, site …Then each scenario is presented and discussed so that just one can be selected.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT... The pre-project summary (PPS) lets us study the general composition with the content, the different themes, the objects, areas of different spaces, technical and museographic provisions so as to envisage it all and estimate the cost. The pre-project detail (PPD) is the complete definition of the project. The different museographic foci are described, drawn and precisely costed, so enabling the project to be adjusted to meet the architectural and financial constraints	The company consultation file (CCF) comprises all the technical and administrative items needed by companies to draft their quotations. All the proposals are then examined during the proposal analysis review phase and fine tuning can be done to allow contracts to be agreed, in order to reach the point of project approval. One of the last steps is works execution management (WEM). In fact this is the organisation and management of construction meetings up until the hand-over operation (HOP)	FEASIBILITY STUDIES AND LEGAL CONDITIONS The comparative analysis consists of comparingthe project with three other similar organisations.
