From the moment land acquisition begins, we are by your side, navigating through all RIBA stages to ensure that your vision is realized effectively and efficiently.

As your development navigator, we start by understanding your project's unique brief, goals, and key performance indicators (KPIs). With your destination clearly in focus, we chart the most efficient course, proactively steering your project to ensure it remains financially viable and on track to meet its objectives.

Our role goes beyond just managing processes; we act as the vital conduit for communication among all stakeholders, ensuring that everyone is aligned and informed at every stage.

As your project progresses, we continually monitor its development, providing detailed reports on any changes, critical decision points, and the overall health of the project. Our goal is to ensure that your project not only stays on course but also adapts seamlessly to any challenges or opportunities that arise, always with the destination in mind.

At Compass Consultancy, our Construction Consultant service is designed to offer expert guidance and strategic advice during the critical early stages of your project, from acquisition and feasibility through to the commencement of construction. Whether engaged as your dedicated consultant or advisor, we aim to help you navigate the complexities of the construction process, ensuring your project is positioned for success.

Engaging with us at any RIBA stage allows us to provide valuable insights into programme development, buildability assessments, logistics planning, procurement strategies, and value engineering (VE). Our extensive industry knowledge and connections enable us to advise on the feasibility of various construction options and their impact on your project’s timeline and budget.

As your construction advisor, we support your decision-making by offering expert analysis on how different approaches and materials could influence your project. If you are considering off-site construction methods, we can connect you with the right products and subcontractors, collaborating with architects to market-test these solutions and ensure they align with your design and project goals.

Throughout the planning and preconstruction phases, we remain a crucial part of your team, providing construction expertise to mitigate risks and uncover opportunities. Our deep understanding of construction methods, combined with a broad network of subcontractors, allows us to guide strategic decisions that will benefit your project both immediately and in the long term.

At Compass Consultancy, our Project Value Enhancement service is dedicated to maximizing the profitability and efficiency of your development projects. We understand that every project has unique drivers and targets, and our goal is to uncover opportunities that significantly enhance the value of your scheme at any stage of the process.

Our approach begins with a deep dive into your project’s current assumptions and inputs, such as revenues, programme schedules, build cost assumptions, scheme design, and logistics planning. Once we fully understand your objectives, we conduct a comprehensive review to identify areas where strategic improvements can be made.

For example, we might re-sequence the construction programme to accelerate completion, which could lead to earlier cash flow and reduced preliminary costs. Alternatively, a thorough review of the design and build costs might reveal significant value engineering opportunities that enhance profitability without compromising quality.

We also explore innovative construction methods, such as off-site construction, to determine their potential impact on your project. By assessing how these methods affect programme schedules, costs, and risk profiles, we can provide actionable insights that lead to more efficient project delivery. Once potential improvements are identified, we can market test these options, working with suppliers and contractors to ensure feasibility and cost-effectiveness.

What sets us apart is our extensive pre-development experience and our deep understanding of financial viability. We collaborate closely with your financial analysts to run scenarios and assess the financial impact of our proposed enhancements. This integrated approach ensures that any value we uncover is not only practical but also financially beneficial.

The Project Value Enhancement service is designed to deliver tangible results, improving the profitability and success of your project. With Compass Consultancy, you gain a partner who is as invested in your project’s success as you are, bringing creativity, expertise, and a commitment to uncovering hidden value at every turn.
