Let’s discuss your situation.

In a confidential initial conversation, we identify the experience your project needs.

Construction companies operate in a challenging environment characterised by pressure on costs, margins, projects and liquidity. Our Senior Executive Advisors bring operational leadership experience and a deep understanding of structures, processes and performance – from restructuring to sustainable repositioning.

Typical situations

When this practice group can help

  • Projects are invoiced without the calculated margin being achieved.
  • Liquidity is coming under pressure due to pre-financing and supplementary payments.
  • Costing, site management and change order management do not mesh reliably.
  • Following losses on several projects, there is a lack of clarity regarding the actual situation.

How we work

  1. 1

    Scrutinising projects

    We provide transparency regarding project status, costing, supplementary agreements and liquidity, and highlight the key drivers of results.

  2. 2

    Improving governance

    Costing, project monitoring and responsibilities are structured in such a way that deviations are identified at an early stage.

  3. 3

    Secure the result

    We implement the measures at an operational level, closely support critical projects and embed the management framework within the organisation.

Frequently asked questions

Construction industry: your questions answered

Do you have experience with general contractors?

Yes. Our advisers have managed and restructured construction companies and main contractors; you can find a practical example under ‘Practice & Perspectives’.

Do you focus on individual projects or the organisation as a whole?

Both are possible. Work often begins with critical projects and from there leads to the costing, management and organisation of the company.
