Capital Projects Services

Invest smart. Invest in tomorrow

The engineering and construction sector has an outsized impact on lives and livelihoods. The sector is responsible for the infrastructure that connects people to work, schools and healthcare and transporting goods to the high-tech buildings on the horizon.

Our team of engineers, programme managers, accountants, project financiers and architects work as your project advisors, supporting the development and execution of a risk resilient project. We typically work with the senior project stakeholders in an advisory capacity, ensuring they have the right insights to take informed action, capture more value, reclaim margins and run more efficiently.

We help you build your business for the dynamic future from strategy through execution.

Springboard

Establishing a foundation for project success

The early stages of a major project are critical to its likelihood of being delivered successfully. Organisations need to take control – a real challenge when embarking on a project for the first time, or taking on a project of unfamiliar complexity.

Springboard gears up organisations to deliver their most important projects successfully.

Intelligent control

Building the environment that puts you in control of your programme

When visibility of capital programme performance is scarce, unreliable or conflicting, stakeholder confidence and trust can be quickly lost. Programmes can derail and organisations can start to feel like passengers.

Intelligent control is our proven approach that puts organisations back in control of their major programmes.

Commercial advantage

Driving the best performance out of complex contracts

Large contracts are part of the fabric of major projects, but they often fail to deliver on the promise of managing risk and can erode considerable value – threatening objectives, increasing cost and derailing strategy.

Commercial advantage brings the acumen and insight needed to drive the best performance and results out of complex contracts.

Project partner

Working by your side to deliver critical projects successfully

When an urgent issue arises, organisations need to respond effectively and rapidly. People are pulled out of day-to-day roles and into project teams – sometimes with limited project leadership experience – which puts success under threat.

Project partner provides an immediate injection of skilled and experienced project and programme leadership capability that is essential in delivering business critical outcomes.

Resolve

Providing a pragmatic, outcomes-focused approach to project disputes

When contractual disagreements arise on major projects, decisions need to be driven objectively and by the facts to maximise the chances of success. More often impulse and emotion take over, compromising outcomes and risking reputational and financial damage.

Resolve adopts a pragmatic and rigorous business case approach to contractual disputes.

Health check

Providing independent and objective insight into complex projects

Major projects present significant risks and it is often difficult to understand if they are on track. An optimistic view is often reported, leading to poor decisions and missed opportunities to intervene. An independent perspective is essential.

With Health check we provide independent and objective challenge to complex projects.

Recover

Getting challenging projects back on track

When a major project is going wrong, every decision is critical. Establishing what is going on, what happened and what needs to be put right – quickly – is vital to getting a project back on track.

Recover provides organisations with the objective insight they need to make clear, informed decisions.
