Let’s discuss your situation.

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

Infrastructure projects involve significant investment, technical complexity, numerous stakeholders and long-term decisions. Our experts combine experience from industrial projects, operations, technology, the supply chain and public transport – to ensure clear lines of responsibility, robust structures and consistent implementation.

Typical situations

When this practice group can help

  • An infrastructure project is running over schedule or budget, and the causes are unclear.
  • A large number of stakeholders, unclear responsibilities and slow decision-making are holding the programme back.
  • Technical complexity is combined with an organisation that is managing a project of this scale for the first time.
  • Business must continue to run whilst, at the same time, renewal or reorganisation takes place.

How we work

  1. 1

    Assessing the situation

    We provide clarity on scope, deadlines, costs, risks and stakeholders, and highlight the actual status of the project.

  2. 2

    Establishing a governance framework

    Governance, decision-making processes and reporting are structured in such a way that responsibilities are clearly defined and decisions are made swiftly.

  3. 3

    Ensure implementation

    We manage the project on an operational basis, monitor quality, deadlines and budget, and ensure that day-to-day operations continue smoothly.

Frequently asked questions

Infrastructure: your questions answered

Will you be taking on overall project management?

Yes. Our Senior Executive Advisors take on project and programme management roles, lead the PMO or strengthen the Steering Committee – with responsibility for the outcome, not just for recommendations.

Do you also work with public sector clients?

Yes. Several advisers bring experience from organisations with political and public responsibilities, where transparency and stakeholder management are particularly important.

When does it make sense to use external project management?

As soon as a project exceeds a company’s own management capacity, or deadlines and budgets are repeatedly missed. The sooner corrective action is taken, the lower the resulting costs will be.
