We understand complexities of projects, and we also understand the importance of design to a client, and the consultant team. We have a strong ability to manage the design process from the beginning through to the end of the project. Our depth of experience and straightforward approach allows us to recognise what’s valuable in a design, foresee and investigate any risks or issues, and implement changes needed to help continue with the project and ensure the compliance with the design concept and the vision of the client and the designers.
We are commercially astute and will always have the budget in mind during the design process, as we always believe it is best to tackle any changes during the design stage, as this will be the most cost-effective method. We also understand that things do change over time, so any requirement for value engineering exercises can be accommodated, to help steer the project’s design (and budget) in the right direction.

Being able to confidently manage and provide real and up-to-date financial information is an important service that is valued by clients, as it provides them the confidence in the team that the project is being managed successfully.
