A global approach which takes into account specificities of your project

Our approach aims at optimizing the value of the project, identification and management of risks. We set up simple rules in compliance with the must of the sector. Our approach is based on :

  • A global approach in order to take into account specificities of each project : legal and financial advisory, quality control, cost control, project management (budget, planification, coordination, monitoring, reporting, communication), risks and opportunities analysis.
  • Recognized audit methodology, national and international references (quantity surveying data base, ratios, price benchmark …).
  • An adapted methodology for each project to treat specificities without standard solutions. We set up an interactive management with the client in order to take the good choice and the right decision to respect the delay and to maximize the quality.
  • An operational and commercial knowledge: project isn’t an objective itself but a tool production which propose public or rpivate services. We propose a developped solution in order to assist our client in the success of their objectives.
  • A personal assessment: our approach is this one « Assessment isn’t only forecasts. It is information, a tool which enable the contractor to take decision. To be efficient, assessment must be transparente, structured and based on hypothesis agreed by all partners of the project.»
