Revolutionizing Real Estate: ArisUnitern’s Integrated ‘3Ms’ Model for Capital, Compliance, and Speed
In an era of capital constraints and rising execution risks, ArisUnitern’s integrated ‘3Ms’ model—Money, Material, and Management—is redefining project delivery in the real estate sector.

In an era marked by capital constraints and rising execution risks, large capital-intensive businesses are fundamentally rethinking how projects are delivered—treating speed, compliance, and capital efficiency not as trade-offs, but as interconnected levers of success.
We identified early the fragmentation in real estate—capital bottlenecks, unreliable procurement, and scattered oversight. We did not wait for the market to ask; we anticipated the need and built a solution. Our integrated ‘3Ms’ model—Money, Material, and Management—was designed to bridge these gaps.
We enable capital access through our network of strategic investors, streamline procurement via our digital platform ArisInfra.one, and deliver end-to-end execution led by a dedicated C-suite project team. This unified offering gives us execution control across the entire real estate value chain—whether we enter at the land stage, mid-project, or pre-handover. By aligning all essential levers as one cohesive resource engine, we de-risk delivery and accelerate outcomes.
More than a service provider, we are a solution partner—plugging in where needed to unlock value and momentum. The shift today is not just operational—it’s strategic. Projects are no longer managed as engineering tasks but as capital strategies. Development Management is emerging as the preferred model, and we are proud to lead that change with a clear focus on outcomes.
### Addressing Gaps in Project Governance and Execution Oversight
Real estate project execution is not just an operational activity—it is a strategic lever for long-term value creation. Yet, a recurring gap observed across Indian enterprises is the absence of centralized, proactive governance. Ownership is often fragmented across functions, leading to reactive firefighting rather than anticipatory risk mitigation.
We have institutionalized a structured governance framework: weekly cross-functional reviews and open lines of communication. Most critically, we ensure direct C-suite involvement—bringing strategic alignment, on-time working capital infusion, seamless material procurement, and faster decision cycles. This top-down engagement model drives accountability, de-risks execution, and compresses delivery timelines—turning governance into a competitive advantage rather than a compliance function.
### Operational and Cultural Shifts for Effective Development Management Partnerships
We believe that the success of a Development Management (DM) partnership hinges on two foundational shifts—one operational, and the other cultural. Operationally, organizations must embed governance, standardize processes, and ensure real-time visibility across every stage of the project lifecycle. This shift transforms a fragmented approach into a cohesive development journey. At Unitern, we have seen how our integrated ‘3Ms’ model—Money, Material, and Management—has enabled our partners to de-risk execution, reduce 70% of the typical 200+ developer touchpoints, and focus on their core strengths while we handle the rest.
With a ₹350 Cr credit line, a streamlined digital procurement platform (ArisInfra.one), and an experienced C-suite-led management team, we deliver outcomes that are timely, compliant, and capital-efficient.
Culturally, the most effective partnerships are those where clients go beyond contractual terms to embrace co-creation. This means fostering trust, sharing accountability, and treating partners not as vendors, but as strategic collaborators. We pride ourselves on being a developer’s friend—not just a service provider. We have built our journey by deeply understanding the challenges developers face and crafting solutions with them, not for them. That spirit of mutual respect and shared ambition is what allows DM models to thrive.
### Mitigating Common Pitfalls in Capital Planning and Land Acquisition
The two biggest pitfalls are misaligned financial assumptions and weak due diligence. In capital planning, developers often underestimate working capital needs, ignore cost escalations, or fail to align cash flows with timelines. In land acquisition, gaps in title clarity, zoning compliance, and documentation often lead to delays and legal exposure.
We mitigate these risks through rigorous early-stage feasibility checks and financial modelling linked to real-time milestones.
### The Evolving Role of Financial Structuring in Real Estate
Financial structuring has evolved beyond capital infusion—it’s about crafting stage-aligned, risk-mitigated strategies that unlock value and drive execution certainty. For early-stage development, there’s growing commitment for flexible capital that enables movement from land acquisition to approvals without overleveraging. The larger developers are having blanket commitments from Institutional Funds to honor such capital payments. For mid-sized developers, we bring in HNIs/Family Offices on joint development (JD) or revenue-share models, helping promoters initiate projects with minimal upfront strain—while offering structured exits as the project gains traction.
In distressed asset scenarios, the playbook is little different. We collaborate with AIFs or private investors to inject immediate liquidity. Unitern brings in expertise as Development Manager, ensuring material procurement efficiencies, C-suite-led governance, and a robust turnaround roadmap. We also rebrand and relaunch projects through focused sales, marketing, and channel engagement, unlocking working capital and restoring asset value.
### Advantages of Centralized Project Leadership
In fragmented real estate setups, centralized project leadership brings much-needed clarity and control. It aligns all stakeholders under one command, speeds up decision-making, and reduces confusion. This model helps cut through execution delays, eliminates duplication, and ensures consistent quality across the board.
### Emerging Technologies Shaping Capital Project Execution
We believe the next phase of capital project execution will be deeply shaped by data-driven technologies that improve foresight, precision, and governance.
At the forefront is AI-powered risk forecasting—combining historical project data, real-time site inputs, and external variables (like weather, inflation, and regulatory changes) to predict delays, cost overruns, and liquidity pressures before they materialize. This enhances proactive decision-making and mitigates downstream disruptions.
Digital twins and BIM (Building Information Modelling) are set to transform lifecycle costing by enabling real-time scenario planning—from design through maintenance—allowing capital planners to optimize material use, energy efficiency, and long-term O&M costs.
Further, cloud-based performance dashboards and automated compliance tools will redefine benchmarking. With embedded governance protocols and milestone tracking, these platforms can deliver investor-grade transparency while streamlining execution oversight.
