Project management

Our dedicated project managers have the qualifications and experience to deliver complex projects with predictable excellent results. By understanding the client's requirements and key values, we can provide:

 

  • Completion within the agreed programme
  • Adherence to the clients’ budget
  • Zero defects at handover
  • A level of quality that delights the building users

 

In this way we are able to give our clients complete confidence that their new-build and refurbishment projects are safe with NPS.

 

Our business management systems are accredited to ISO9001, and our managers and co-ordinators use PRINCE2 methodologies to implement approved and tested procedures.  This enables us to take a project efficiently from inception to completion.  We maintain a customer focus throughout, including after-care services. Our regime of reporting and communication keeps the client fully appraised at all times, and our satisfaction surveys provide learning points for continual improvement.

 

We have adopted Connect2 as our main IT solution for project management.  It is a bespoke implementation of P2.NET by Concerto Support Services.  As a comprehensive web-based system, it enables us to control the budget and programme of all our projects across the country. It means that all project stakeholders have access to accurate and up-to-date information, so they are able to collaborate effectively.

Our Approach

pro-bono work for a special school

We have done a free feasibility study for a Special School in Barnstaple, Devon, to help a building project move forward.

matching cost and budget

A community centre project in West Sussex had a funding shortfall, until we found ways of bringing the cost down and the budget up.

competitive tender management

By effectively managing the contractor tender process, we were able to free up additional funds for a new education project in Devon.

diligence in project management

We allocated a project manager to work 100% of his time on a quay wall refurbishment in Colchester, to ensure timely completion.
