Project Management

Drawing on in-depth industry experience across the full project lifecycle, from inception to handover and operation, we assess the performance of professional project managers.

Our project management experts have years of practical experience delivering complex projects as professional project managers. We use this to confidently assess how an appropriately qualified and competent project manager would interpret and implement its contractual obligations.

In evaluating the project manager’s performance, we establish whether the professional has exercised all the reasonable skill, care and diligence to be expected. Our expert opinion informs counsels’ liability and negligence assessments of the project managers’ performance.

Drawing on practical experience of delivering projects as professional construction managers, we provide independent advice in dispute avoidance, dispute resolution and strategic decision-making. 

We assist at any stage of the project to maximize value and reduce exposure to the risks associated with a construction management approach. Issues we are regularly appointed to advise on include engineering, procurement and construction management performance on large-scale, high-value and complex EPCM contracts.

Our practical experience in delivering some of the most complex, global projects provides us with unrivaled expertise and insight.

 

Damages

Our experts are regularly instructed and give evidence in construction disputes and arbitration. We have experience working on projects globally, both in relation to investment treaty claims acting for and against the state, and in commercial and contractual disputes between companies.

Whether it is delays in the development of mines, consequential losses from the delay of property development or losses arising from aborted construction projects, we provide specialist expertise in evaluating wasted costs and valuing historical and future losses.
