Cost Management

Cost Management is a broad subject encompassing all stages of a project, from inception to completion. Today's market requires contracts to be administered in a professional and structured manner, allowing facts to be recorded and positions safeguarded.

While some see stringent contract administration as potentially adversarial, this does not have to be the case.

We employ experienced commercial and contract administration personnel with extensive practical experience of project cost management.

We are able to deploy individuals to enhance a client's existing commercial team, or alternatively, deploy a commercial team to undertake the total commercial function for a project.

Planning & Scheduling

The project schedule and associated planning techniques provide one of the most important management tools in any project. Not only does this provide a reliable means of planning forward, it also enables monitoring of progress and change. This allows project management decisions to be made at appropriate times. In a claim or a dispute, a comparison of the schedule and actual progress achieved will also be essential to demonstrate the real impact of critical change. In order to be effective, the schedule and progress records need to be developed, maintained and analysed by skilled and experienced people. Change needs to be identified from the various project records and the real impact upon the schedule determined.
