Our Services

We understand the dynamic relationship between budgets, program + quality, and we have the experience and ability to enable our clients and design teams to make informed decisions, connecting their vision with the project’s budget and schedule constraints.

Our consulting service is not only specifically designed to provide qualitative cost information in each key project stage, but also advice on constructability, risk and contingencies, sustainability, procurement, scheduling and whole-life cost, in order to enable our clients to effectively plan, control and manage the cost of construction and optimize resources.

We staff projects with dedicated consultants who will follow through from start to finish, enabling project control, progress facilitation and risk management solutions best suited to our client’s projects. As an objective third-party expert, we ask the critical questions for identifying and mitigating risk. We will always seek solutions that will support project success.

We have worked with high profile Architects and established project owners across the USA and internationally, and have an extensive database of current and historic projects covering both new build and renovation work.
