Today’s increasingly complex building projects demand efficient planning, organisation and time management skills in addition to superior technical know-how. On behalf of clients, Buro Happold’s project management consultancy oversees the planning, co-ordination and control functions of a project from inception to completion. Our goal is to meet our client's requirements for a well-engineered and financially viable project, making sure it is completed on time, to a high quality standard and within budget.

Project management is a professional discipline which separates the management function from the design and execution aspect. This split is important for a number of inter-related reasons: a client’s operational requirements; the need for cost and program certainty and risk limitation; greater technical complexity; more demanding schedules; the number of specialist engineers and contractors involved and the management resources needed to operate many, often unique procurement methods.

Buro Happold holds appearance, value-for-money and functionality as key performance indicators for the success of a project. We take care of the day to day running of the entire project using established and proven management procedures, drawing upon our extensive knowledge of the engineering and construction process. Backed up by sophisticated support systems of programming, document control and monitoring, our hands-on service is tailored precisely to our clients’ needs, enabling them to maintain confident control of the major strategic decisions.
