Purpose-built for the South African built environment. Real-time dashboards, automated regulatory deadline management, commissioning tracking, warranty records, contractor management, and lead capture — all in one integrated system.
Photorealistic real-time 3D visualisation and live digital twin platforms. The Smart Mobility Digital Twin in Cape Town (R12M) is a live operational proof.
Spatial data analysis, zoning maps, EIA buffer modelling, and AI-powered urban growth prediction for town planning and environmental work.
Predictive urban growth modelling across 5–20-year horizons integrating traffic, utility, demographic, and environmental data for strategic planning decisions.
Full BIM modelling, Navisworks clash detection, and Civil 3D — preserving design integrity from concept through construction and as-built documentation.

Integrated multi-discipline delivery across all sectors and provinces.
Frezone's SACPLAN-registered planners prepare, motivate, and manage all rezoning applications under SPLUMA — handling pre-application council engagement, motivation report preparation, public participation facilitation, and statutory appeals. All deadlines are tracked via Permity CRM. Our approval rate across Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, and Limpopo reflects deep statutory planning expertise.
Permity CRM is Frezone's proprietary project management platform — purpose-built for the South African built environment. Clients receive a real-time dashboard: application status, regulatory deadline alerts, construction milestones, commissioning records, and warranty data. It also captures consultation requests from frezone.co.za and routes them to the correct division specialist.
Yes. While headquartered in Clayville, Gauteng, Frezone has delivered projects across all nine provinces including KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, the Western Cape, and the Eastern Cape. Permity CRM enables seamless remote project management and client communication nationwide.
Complete MEP scope: LV/HV electrical (SANS 10142), solar PV, battery storage, EV charging, BMS, LPGAS and natural gas, fire suppression (sprinkler, FM-200, kitchen hood), fire detection, HVAC (split, VRF/VRV, chilled water, clean room), mechanical ventilation, plumbing, drainage, rainwater harvesting, and greywater recycling — all with full COC compliance documentation.
Frezone uniquely offers single-source accountability across five disciplines (Town Planning, Architecture, Engineering, MEP, Interior Design) under one roof — eliminating interface failures. Proprietary Permity CRM and Unreal Engine 5 digital twin capability are industry-first in South Africa. The result: no coordination gaps, faster approvals, one accountable partner from feasibility through handover and beyond.
Frezone creates photorealistic real-time 3D models of proposed developments — entire urban precincts, residential estates, and individual buildings. These are used for council presentations (accelerating approvals), investor briefings with live design iteration, community engagement for public participation, and as the foundation for live digital twin platforms. The Smart Mobility Digital Twin in Cape Town (R12M contract) is fully operational.
