Development & FEED

From first concept to a bankable, buildable project. We can run the full front-end engineering design or slot into your team where it needs depth.

  • Feasibility studies and option assessments
  • Full FEED delivery and design management
  • Scope definition and interface management
  • Grid connection and approvals support
  • Technical due diligence for investors and lenders
  • Executive and board-level engineering advice

Procurement & contracts

Contracts that match how the project will actually be built. We write the requirements, run the tender and negotiate the deal, for major works and long-lead equipment alike.

  • Procurement and packaging strategy
  • Technical specifications and RFT documents
  • Tender evaluation and clarifications
  • Negotiation and preferred-supplier recommendation
  • Owner's engineer and contract administration
  • Change and variation assessment

Commercial & legal

Led by a practising lawyer with mega-project experience, now working across hydro, wind, data centres and other major developments.

  • Contracting strategy
  • Drafting and negotiating AS, FIDIC and bespoke contracts
  • Incentive and target-cost structures
  • Risk, claims and dispute avoidance
  • Contract management procedures
  • Probity and procurement process management

Quality & manufacturing assurance

Risk-based quality that puts inspection effort where failure is most expensive. We have managed surveillance of around $1b of equipment across Europe, Asia and North America.

  • Quality strategy and project QMP
  • Offshore manufacturing surveillance
  • ITPs, hold and witness points, FAT
  • Supplier audits to AS/ISO standards
  • NCR, RFI and document control workflows
  • Embedded quality managers and coordinators

Construction, installation & commissioning

The back end of a project is where the money is spent and the risk is real. We bring hands-on experience of installation, testing and commissioning on major generation assets.

  • Construction and installation management
  • Commissioning planning and oversight
  • Testing and performance verification
  • Defects and nonconformance close-out
  • Safety in Design and HAZOP facilitation
  • Site-based owner's or contractor's representatives

Handover & operational readiness

A project is only finished when the operator can run it. We set up completions and handover early so the asset arrives ready to operate.

  • Completions and handover frameworks
  • Unit-by-unit takeover planning
  • Operational readiness programmes
  • Digital asset handover and registers
  • O&M documentation assurance
  • Refurbishment and life-extension programmes
