Project Management

“Meticulous communication, process and attention to detail.”

As consultant project managers we are skilled and well versed in managing the temporary nature of the construction project.

Experienced in the most challenging & complex of projects

We are experienced in the most challenging and complex projects, of all sizes and across the many sectors of the construction and property industry. From the client’s objectives and brief, we identify the unique challenges of the project, generating the risk management requirements, programme, technical constraints and budget. 

Defining the brief

We take this and where necessary, advise and influence the scope of the brief so that the client’s objectives can be feasibly met. As the project progresses through the planning, design, procurement and construction phases we actively manage the risk, programme, budget and technical challenges that arise.

Project success

To do this effectively we believe that the success of the project, through all its phases from brief to post completion review, is achieved by effective leadership, meticulous communication and coordination within the project team, attention to detail and robust documentary evidence.

“Carl’s strength was his ability to manage a complex team of specialist contractors in order to bring the project in on time and to budget without compromising the client’s exacting brief.

Effective leadership to complete successful projects

Our experience of construction and the management of teams, enables us to identify the solutions to challenges that will arise and provide the effective leadership necessary to complete successful, well run projects. Always meeting the client’s objectives.


Programme Management

As programme manager we maintain an oversight of the status and purpose of multiple projects, from a programme only perspective.  We provide the ability to generate alternative ideas, solutions and proposals for project issues impacting on the programme.

Contract Administrator

Acting impartially, honestly & reasonably enables us to fulfill our appointed, contractual obligations.  We also create a positive, non-confrontational and successful team approach to all projects.

Employer’s Agent

When acting as employer’s agent for design & build contracts we coordinate and manage the design, procurement and construction phases of the project, also utilising our broad experience as project manager's and contract administrator's to benefit the role.

Client confidence

Our clients, whether a large corporation or an individual property owner, can have complete confidence that we provide expert, impartial advice at every stage of the appointment.

From client objectives to project completion

From the client’s objectives and brief, we will systematically identify the unique challenges and scope which will subsequently generate the risk, programme, technical and budget constraints of the project.

We will review the potential outcomes generated and where necessary, advise and influence the scope of the brief so that the client’s objectives can be feasibly met or where required, amended.

As the project progresses through the planning, design, procurement and construction phases we actively manage the risk, programme, budget and technical challenges that will arise.

When we manage multiple projects for a single client, we will manage the links between projects and the overall risks to the programme, providing a decision-making capacity that cannot be achieved at project level.

The success of a project, through all its phases from brief to post completion review, is achieved by effective, confident leadership, meticulous communication and coordination within the project team, attention to detail and the collection of robust documentary evidence.
