Project Management

As project managers we take overall responsibility for successfully delivering the project on behalf of the client, acting as the interface between the construction process and professional team. Our principal role is to manage and coordinate the client and project team ensuring that the project has a clearly defined brief and realistic programme/budget. Regular face-to-face communication with the project team allows their performance to be constantly monitored and issues resolved in a pragmatic fashion. Close management of the client is also essential to ensure their aspirations are successfully captured and delivered within the stated cost and time parameters.

Our skill as project managers is primarily based on an in-depth knowledge of the complete construction process. We have developed our management systems and processes to ensure projects are executed in a robust and controlled fashion paying due attention to key aspects such as risk management, change management, information flow/co-ordination and quality management.

In addition to our core project management service we have developed a particular expertise relating to the client occupation activities. This is an important and often overlooked stage of a construction project which is critical to its overall success. Gentle Consulting brings a structured and robust management approach to these activities ensuring that buildings are occupied in a seamless fashion with a minimum of disruption to the staff and business operations. The Building Occupation Management service includes the provision of Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment (FF&E) together with the relocation of existing assets and personnel. Particular emphasis is placed on close communication and liaison with users and stakeholders, environmental management associated with the removal of redundant assets, specialist equipment integration and programme coordination.
