Our approach
The quality of a construction management appointment is measured in facts, not in intentions. These are the commitments we make, from the first day on site to the handover of the building and the clearing of defects, in compliance with SIA standards and the regulations in force in the cantons where we work.
Our supervision is not limited to the weekly meeting. We check the work as it goes along, because a defect spotted in time is put right, whereas a defect found too late costs a demolition.
Every site meeting produces dated minutes, sent within 48 hours: decisions, responsibilities and deadlines. You follow the progress of your project in real time.
Additional work is submitted to you in writing, with its technical justification and its cost, before it is carried out. You decide with full knowledge of the facts, with no unpleasant surprises at the end of the project.
One contact person from the first conversation to handover. Your file does not pass from one colleague to another, and no intermediary stands between you and the site.
Services
The scope of each appointment is agreed with you: a one-off mission covering a single phase, or full delivery of the project through to the clearing of the final defect.
Planning, coordination and control of the site across all trades. Monitoring of progress, quality of workmanship and safety, chairing site meetings and issuing minutes.
Client-side advisory: we represent your interests with the consultants and contractors — arbitration, sign-off on technical choices, keeping the programme and defending the budget. Read more about our client-side advisory service.
Drafting of specifications and tender documents across all trades, comparison of bids, analysis tables and a reasoned award recommendation.
We work with architects and engineering consultants to ensure continuity from design through to delivery. Each brings their own expertise, towards a shared objective: works that are controlled, coherent and faithful to the project.
Setting and tracking the budget, master and detailed programmes, checking contractors’ interim applications and invoices, final account.
Feasibility studies, condition surveys, expert appraisals and decision support in construction and real estate.
