Our projects

The challenge
Managing escalating expenditure, change control and commercial governance during fast-track delivery.

Our support

• NEC4 contract and commercial management
• Cost assurance and reporting
• Forensic audit of contractor accounts
• Compensation event review and assessment

The difference
Identified £15m in disallowed defined costs under NEC4 Option E and reviewed and resolved over 150 outstanding compensation events and quotations. Improved document management and commercial protocols.

The challenge
Aligning grid connection and wider utility requirements with an innovative energy development.

Our support

• G99 generation connection support
• Electrical connection coordination
• Additional utility requirements
• Network operator and stakeholder engagement

The difference
Supported the progression of utility connections and helped GEL manage technical, commercial and stakeholder interfaces for geothermal generation and proposed lithium production.

The challenge
Providing resilient construction power while managing generation costs, network connection options and programme dependencies.

Our support

• Strategic utilities planning and integration
• Temporary construction power strategy
• Electrical supply and connection assessment
• Technical and commercial interface management

The difference
Challenged temporary power assumptions and identified opportunities to reduce reliance on costly generation through better demand planning and network supply options. The cost efficiencies described are potential opportunities.

The challenge
Identifying existing assets and incorporating utility protection, diversion and connection requirements into early engineering design.

Our support

• FEED design and utility interface integration
• Asset information and constraints assessment
• Protection, diversion and connection strategies
• Statutory undertaker engagement and risk management

The difference
Improved visibility of utility constraints and established clearer responsibilities across the FEED team, supporting opportunities to avoid unnecessary diversions and reduce later design changes.
