Cost control, certainty and optimisation are crucial for our clients’ success. Our exceptional people, experience, data and systems deliver independent insights that give our clients confidence to manage risk and unlock sustainable value.
We provide reliable, independent advice about costs, risks and opportunities, which is why our clients have chosen us as a trusted advisor for more than 75 years.
Our commercial acumen, broad market experience and deep specialist knowledge really set us apart. But there’s more to commercial performance and cost management than numbers. We are always seizing opportunities to innovate and add new value – for our clients, our industry, and the future.
COST CERTAINTY TO INSPIRE CONFIDENCE
The cost advice we provide is realistic and comprehensive, covering all aspects of any project or program. Our meaningful insights and end-to-end services help our clients make informed decisions, mitigate risks, and achieve successful completion and delivery.
We believe that merely minimising cost is rarely the best or only answer. We help our clients eliminate any unnecessary costs while optimising their capital and operational budgets to provide the greatest long-term value.
Drawing on extensive current and historical benchmarking data, we give confidence to owners, developers, lenders and contractors – across the lifecycle of projects and programs, assets and facilities.
DIVERSE, SPECIALIST EXPERTISE
Our people are our strength. With quantity surveyors, cost engineers and technical experts, we can understand, evaluate and cost designs accurately and get things moving from the outset towards best value and best-for-project outcomes, while understanding the implications of change. We have specialist technical knowledge, skills and experience ranging from the fine details of mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) through to the challenges of large-scale infrastructure projects.
Coupling technical and commercial expertise, we provide total and proactive cost and value management, rather than reactive reporting. We’re also uniquely placed to support procurement to achieve the best possible quality and minimise our clients’ risks.
We’re excited to bring our diverse expertise and real-world, multi-sector experience to support our clients, whatever their goals.
STAYING AHEAD OF THE CURVE
Our long history doesn’t hold us back. We remain agile, inventive, and responsive to the trends shaping our clients’ success. This drives our ongoing innovation, addressing sustainability challenges such as embodied carbon and building electrification, and embracing cutting-edge digital tools.
With fast, accurate information and insights, our clients can embrace the future with confidence, empowered for growth.
