We strive to add value for our customers by working to understand
their business drivers, their culture and the risks they face so we
can meet their needs in the most effective way – helping achieve
more for less.
No matter how complex the commission or the nature of its
challenges, we have the diversity of expertise and experience to
deliver solutions which:
- Save money and time
- Reduce risks – technical, commercial, environmental
- Drive up efficiency
- Maximise sustainable outcomes – environmental, social,
financial
- Embody the best of best practice
- Result in market-leading levels of customer satisfaction and
repeat business
We achieve this added value through:
- Insight – working hard to really understand our
customers’ ambitions, constraints and business environment
- Innovation – bringing fresh eyes to old challenges and
cutting edge thinking to new ones
- Experience – drawing on our track record and local
knowledge across 140 countries
- Holistic approach – using our multi-sector perspective
to provide joined up thinking
- Collaboration – integrating teams, ideas and approaches
to generate innovation and efficiency
- Continuous improvement – systematically reducing waste
in all processes and activities.
Some examples where we’ve added value on projects for our customers
include:
- Realising efficiencies of up to 30% for Highways Agency by
implementing the lean process management methodology across its
supply chain.
- Enabling residents to influence products and finishes to a
London residential development within a defined budgetary limit,
encouraged community input into the project whilst still achieving
value for money.
- Dispute resolution between a major infrastructure customer and
the main contractor, resulted in a successful project and final
account reduction of 24%.
- Negotiating a compromise agreement between the contractor and
employer, achieving £2m claims savings, avoidance of legal costs,
and assurance for the contractor’s financial position through
capped expectation, significantly reducing risk to the
project.
- Value engineering proposals for a league 1 Football Club
represented an overall saving in excess of £5m.
- Facilitating a collaborative approach with the client and
contractor allowed £1m of additional works at a university campus
to be incorporated with no additional programme time incurred.
