Public Clients
A good project basis has to do more than get through a tender. We help you make it hold all the way into reality.
As a public client, you build for others, with public funds and many stakeholders around the project. That places special demands on the choices that have to make politics, finances, rules and the reality of the project fit together.
Projects take shape in organizations with many levels of decision-making. Users, operations, politicians, management and the project organization can have different needs, and the framework can change along the way.
At the same time, many public clients find that the project documentation cannot be realized once execution begins. When the real price, the actual construction time and the buildability of the project only become clear during execution, there are fewer options. That can lead to higher costs, delays and lower quality.
Start with the fundamentals
We start by understanding what you are going to build, who will use it and what it takes for the project to succeed. We then design the procurement, contract model and agreements so they support the project’s goals. That can mean early contractor involvement, clear agreements on responsibilities and deliverables, or a collaboration model that makes finances and decisions more transparent.
We combine legal advice with technical and organizational understanding, so the connection between the technical, the practical and the legal becomes clear. At the same time, we help create the framework for the collaboration and the decisions that have to be made along the way.
Our advice includes:
→ Procurement and decisions along the way
→ Collaboration models and early contractor involvement
→ Agreements, changes and phase transitions
