Project and building consultancy

Our project and building consultancy services

Project management 

We coordinate every moving part, including design development, planning submissions, and procurement and contract negotiation. We then oversee day-to-day site activity to keep programme, quality, and health and safety targets on track. 

Cost optimisation and quantity surveying  

• Our cost control process includes robust benchmarking, value-engineering workshops, tender reviews, and variation management.  
• We produce transparent cost plans and cash-flow forecasts to help secure funding. 
• We monitor spend throughout construction, identify savings without compromising quality, and provide clear reporting. 

Technical due diligence 

• We provide surveys of building structure, façade, M&E systems, and statutory compliance.  
• Our reports highlight short-, medium- and long-term capital expenditure, latent defects, and environmental liabilities.  
• This helps you to price risk accurately, negotiate with strength, and plan precise refurbishment. 

Financial feasibility studies 

We test development or refurbishment viability by modelling construction costs, programme, rents, yields, and exit scenarios. Sensitivity analyses show how market conditions, design choices, or funding structures could affect your returns. 

Project monitoring 

We review designs, budgets, programmes, and contracts, then visit site regularly to verify progress, certify drawdowns, and flag risks. Our oversight ensures the scheme remains technically sound, financially controlled, and stays on track for completion. 

Inspection tours and maintenance audits 

We prioritise remedial works, estimate lifecycle costs, and produce phased maintenance schedules to help owners optimise service charge budgets, reduce downtime, and extend asset life. 

Handover and defects management 

• We ensure snagging items are recorded, rectified, and signed off.  
• We verify as-built documentation, O&M manuals, and warranties for smooth future maintenance.  
• We manage defects during liability to protect occupiers from disruption and owners from unexpected costs. 

ESG and sustainability advisory 

• We conduct energy and carbon audits, set improvement targets, and map out practical steps to achieve compliance, including BREEAM, EPC, and Taxonomy.  
• We assess material choices, waste strategies, and building management performance, then integrate low carbon and wellness measures into plans.
