Undergoing a project across any industry, no matter how big or small, comes with its own set of risks. One of the biggest hazards a project manager may face is failing to deliver the project outcomes within the deadline.
Here at KITE Projects, we believe in Collaborative Engineering, a concept that utilises a process where we incorporate an agreed level of engineering design to suit the project requirements, and build a product package to fulfil the agreed design.
As a concept this embodies Early Contractor Involvement, Modular Construction, Off site manufacturing, and a Fixed Design Fee. This delivers cost efficiencies by eliminating expensive, unplanned design iterations and mitigates risk.
‘Early contractor involvement (ECI) is an approach to contracting that supports improved team working, innovation and planning to deliver value for money. It involves an integrated contractor and designer team, appointed under an incentivised, two-stage contract.’ (Gov.uk)
The team at KITE use ECI to engage with our clients early in the project lifespan, starting right from the design stage, and collaborating to ensure there is a mutual agreement to the project schedule.
Our forward planning approach means that you are more in control of your work, reducing the risk of project overruns and creating a smooth project lifespan with an effective outcome. Ready to transform your project management approach? Contact us today!
