Outdoor Activities

DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION

We design and manage memorable outdoor activities all over the world. Our company, PGI, offers a wide range of products and services for all possible conditions in different natural environments, societies and cultures. Our assistance continues throughout the entire implementation process and our business model consists of a year-round offer, which includes both summer and winter activities. The process beings with market research to best identify the target market’s preferences, and analyse the evolution of experiential tourism in the relevant sector.

We also create a survey that focuses on where activities should be placed, as well as new locations suitable for expansion. We then design the best products depending upon the strengths of your location as well as the needs and wants of the target. Once, these studies are complete we then perform an economic assessment of the project in order to measure its feasibility. Once the feasibility report is complete, we then assist during the construction phase by creating a PMO (Project Management Office).

Specialized services:

OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES SITE INSPECTION & FEASIBILITY STUDY

We identify opportunities and business risks. We conduct on-site inspections to identify and prioritize the activities that will potentially be offered in each destination. First, we conduct a profound analysis of your destination in order to discover the site potential. We study the orography and geology of the area, as well as natural assets and risks, access, services, and power supplies available. We take the location’s history and visitors into account.
We then use our PGI technical staff as well as reputed experts to gather and compile information in order to create several outdoor activity models. We then gauge the feasibility of the development of the outdoor activities and analyse them from a technical point of view to ensure project plans are safe, realistic, and cost effective.

OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES DESIGN & CONCEPTUALIZATION.

As outdoor activity specialist we design, conceptualize and develop projects for Outdoor activity centres. We use internationally recognized methodologies to conceptualize the key factors of the business model. According to the strategy defined, we identify target publics and create an appropriate portfolio of memorable outdoor activities and products (description, objective, location, duration, risks). We establish communication channels, define key activities, (price proposal & prioritization of activities for implementation) and their implementation (required infrastructure, necessary materials, personnel and maintenance required, etc.). All work is conducted with international safety standards in mind, as well as respect and care for the natural environment.
