Programme Scheduling

Prepare detailed and summary works programmes, together with explanatory narratives and graphic illustrations of intended work sequences. This can be done throughout the project lifecycle. We will ensure the programme efficiently and dynamically models all the important work processes, from design and procurement to installation, commissioning and close-out. This includes setting up suitable layouts, work breakdown structures and filters so different people can focus on exactly what they need to.

Programme Evaluation

Comprehensive review of network logic and sequencing to ensure the programme includes everything it needs to and properly reflects the detailed planning. In this way we can ensure your programmes are fit-for-purpose and protect your interests.

Progress Reporting

Advice on techniques to ensure progress reporting is clear, concise and effectively expresses your position regarding key as-built information and current issues affecting the works. Alternatively we can do it for you. The most important thing is to make sure progress reporting works for you, not against you.

Programme Monitoring & Updating

By keeping the programme up to date, both in terms of recording as-built data as well as future forecasting, we can help keep your project on track and flag up any potential problems. In out experience, a sensible real-time view on project status ensures more informed decision making and better outcomes.

Risk Management

Assess programme risks and formulate strategies to proactively manage those risks. This involves:- identifying schedule risks; checking programme logic, activity durations and content (focusing on the project critical and near critical paths); analyzing how the network reacts in different risk scenarios; and proposing ways to mitigate negative outcomes.

Delay Claims

Formulate robust extension of time and prolongation claims on behalf of Contractors and Subcontractors. Review and assess the merits of delay claims on behalf of Employers.

Delay Recovery

Evaluate or demonstrate the effectiveness of delay recovery measures on the programme. Money spent on ineffective DRMs is money down the drain – for both Employers and Contractors alike.

Expert Witness Services

Prepare expert reports and provide opinion in relation to planning, programming and delay analysis for mediation, arbitration and litigation. By combining experience with industry best practice and current legal precedent, we can distill the most complex of scenarios into clear and concise analysis demonstrating cause and effect.
