PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
 

By providing a highly skilled and experienced managing partner, backed up by a dedicated and enthusiastic site personnel, all aspects of the project will be managed to ensure that the client's objectives are achieved.
In order to achieve this, special focus is applied to the following
management processes:

  • Co-ordination
  • Scope
  • Time
  • Cost
  • Quality
  • Resources
  • Communications
  • Risk
  • Procurement

Fast-tracking of projects undoubtedly has “time value of money” benefits on certain projects, but this method of execution is not necessarily cost effective on all projects and should not be adopted without careful consideration.

Fast-tracking carries a substantial cost and particularly where the procurement process is uncertain and unreliable, a process of careful pre-planning and manufacture could be far more beneficial.
This is particularly relevant to refurbishment projects but also applies to new projects.

 
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT:
 
On certain smaller projects where the main contractor's portion of work is relatively small, it is beneficial for the project manager on behalf of the client, to employ and manage all subcontractors directly. This allows for a saving of cost, more efficient communication, but requires addition of resources to deal with site quality control.
 
DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT:
 

In typical projects, the consultant and construction team expect the client to know their requirements and be aware of the implications. In more complex projects, the client requirements become a process which requires careful management to identify the needs, review and understand the options, prior to making an informed
decision, the outcome of which is clearly understood. The situation is further complicated where operations input is involved, as these requirements need careful management and interpretation to ensure that they are in line with the overall project objectives.

This process needs to be co-ordinated by a manager with a knowledge and understanding of the operation, as well as the design and construction aspects of the project. Proper development management will provide and maintain an operating criteria which is approved by the client and operations, and integrate this into the design and construction brief.

PROCUREMENT:
 

Projects, particularly leisure developments, include large amounts of furniture and equipment, which are required timeously and cost effectively, to ensure that project completion and operation.

Based on our vision of transparancy and good communication, this procurement process is carefully managed on behalf of the client to ensure that goods required are purchased within budget, are installed timeously and meet the quality standards required.
