PROGRAMMING & SCHEDULING
MBM’s services are used by Clients as we understand the construction process and are able to accurately transcribe this into contractually compliant programmes and progress reports which, apart from advising of progress, can be used to explain why a project has been carried out as it has and help in the recovery of any contractual entitlements.
Modern construction and engineering contracts, such as NEC, place an increasingly important emphasis on project planning. MBM has extensive practical experience, which combined with our legal and contractual knowledge enables us to provide a high quality, responsive and cost effective planning service.
Our planning services are provided to both employer and contracting organisations working in the building, civil engineering, infrastructure, rail, energy and related industries. We have extensive experience and can utilise most of the principal planning software such as Primavera, Asta, MS Project etc however, unlike many planners, we use software as a tool as opposed to being controlled by the requirements of any software.
Our services are tailored to specific requirements and include:
- Tender programme preparation
- Programme risk management
- Contract programme preparation i.e. ICheme Clause 13 programmes, ECC Clause 31 programmes
- Programme maintenance / updating
- Progress monitoring and target project progress auditing
- Evaluation of project change
- Preparation of time related effects of ECC compensation events
Our services have been utilized in different sectors by many major industry organizations including Balfour Beatty, ISG, Costain, Vinci, Emcor.
