Project Management & Consultancy

Project Management & Consultancy

Independent project and programme management that protects your budget, programme and quality on every contract.

Overview

Independent control of cost, programme and quality

A project manager's job is to notice early what the client would rather not discover late. We are engaged precisely because someone needs to hold the line on cost, programme and quality when commercial pressure starts to push against them.

Our project management and consultancy division works on both sides of the table — supporting clients who need a professional to manage their contractors, and supporting contractors who need an independent consultant to administer the contract on their behalf.

Engagements can cover a single stage — cost, programme or completion inspection — or the full lifecycle from feasibility through to handover and final account.

Our reports are written to be used, not filed

Every deliverable is specific: what the evidence shows, what the risk is, what we recommend and by when. No status reports that restate the programme without adding judgement.

Scope of Work

What is included

Our consultancy scope is deliberately modular — engage only the discipline you need, or hand us the full management of the project on your behalf.

Cost Management

Budget preparation, cost planning, measure and valuation review, cash flow forecasting, variation valuation and final account assessment.

Programme & Schedule Control

Baseline programme development, critical path analysis, progress tracking, delay analysis and programme recovery planning.

Quality & Compliance Review

Inspection and test plan review, materials approval oversight, site inspection, snag verification and completion certification.

Risk & HSE Management

Risk register development, safety performance monitoring, incident review and corrective action tracking.

Claims & Contract Advisory

Contract interpretation, notice compliance, delay and prolongation analysis, and preparation or rebuttal of claims.

Completion & Handover

Practical completion inspection, defect scheduling, handover documentation review, occupancy and post-completion monitoring.

How We Deliver

Judgement, evidence and clear advice

A report is only useful if it changes a decision. Ours are built to be acted on.

  • Baseline Setting

    Before anything is measured against a target, we establish a realistic baseline — programme, budget and quality criteria that everyone has signed off.

  • Evidence-Based Reporting

    Findings supported by site observation, photographic records, measured data and document review — not subjective opinion.

  • Exception Reporting

    We escalate early and specifically. A programme slip of three weeks is a different conversation from one of twelve.

  • Close-Out Assurance

    Final accounts, defect schedules, warranties and as-built documentation verified before the project is formally closed.

  • Delivery Method

    How a consultancy engagement runs

    A structured engagement with agreed deliverables, reporting rhythm and defined decision points.

    01

    Scoping & Objectives

    We establish the client's actual concern, the information available and the decisions the output must support.

    02

    Baseline & Method

    Document review, site inspection and data collection, then a written method defining how the work will be assessed.

    03

    Periodic Assessment

    Structured reviews at agreed intervals with findings, risk ratings and recommended actions issued in writing.

    04

    Issue & Advice

    Findings presented with clear recommendations, and supported by the client in taking or defending the position.

    05

    Closure & Record

    Final report, close-out documentation and a complete record retained for audit and dispute purposes.

    Engagements are scoped with a defined fee, a defined deliverable and a defined reporting rhythm, so both parties know exactly what is being provided for what cost.

    Why Clients Stay

    Why appoint an independent manager

    Objective Judgement

    An independent consultant has no incentive to under-report a problem.

    Audit-Ready Records

    Contemporaneous documentation that stands up to audit, arbitration or court.

    Live Cost Visibility

    Forecast final cost continuously, not at the end when it is too late to act.

    Constructive Challenge

    We tell you what we would do, and we support the position with evidence.

    Questions

    Questions about project management

    Yes. We act for both sides and disclose our role clearly at the outset. What we will not do is act for two parties with conflicting interests in the same matter.
    For continuous management we quote a monthly fee. For discrete assignments — a cost review, a delay analysis, a completion inspection — we quote a fixed fee against a defined deliverable.
    We can usually begin within a week for a desk-based review and within two weeks for a site-based assignment, subject to site access and the availability of records.
    The contract, drawings, programme, cost reports, site records and correspondence. Where records are incomplete we will tell you what gaps exist and how they affect the conclusions we can reasonably reach.
    We provide independent analysis of quantum, delay and causation. We do not act as an advocate or as an arbitrator — that is a separate appointment under a separate agreement.
