Independent Engineer / Dispute Resolution
Contractual disputes are not uncommon in engineering and construction projects. Often these stem from the highly inter-dependent nature of diverse activities all occurring within very tight program and budgetary constraints.
We act as independent engineers, reviewers and certifiers as well as engineering experts in dispute resolution.

Our two basic philosophies:
1
Companies prosper in proportion to the quality of their leadership, therefore:
- Do everything possible to create a leadership culture where people at every level accept personal, extreme ownership to deliver success.
- Leaders should be diverse as individuals but tight as a team, people who compensate for each other's weaknesses, multiply each other's strengths and make great things happen. Together.
- We can help you build that culture.
2
Business performance can be multiplied by applying the following to every system and process:
- SIMPLIFY: Identify the predominant success drivers of a desired outcome (OKR's). And focus on them ruthlessly.
- STANDARDISE the predominant success drivers. Processes which are systematised and standardised are repeatable and more easily optimised.
- AUTOMATE: Leverage technology, data analytics, AI, MIS etc in order to release leaders to "do" less and think more. And think bigger.
- INTEGRATE: Business silos which ignore inter-dependencies or opportunities for optimisation degrade the entire value chain.
