The Mark Willett Partnership, as leader of the project team, provides a dynamic, professional project management service to meet the property, construction and facilities management needs of our clients.
We recognise that every project is unique and therefore operate a flexible approach, that blends skills and resources, and believe five principal factors influence successful project management:
- Time - project processes and economics are inextricably time-related
- Quality - achieving defined quality goals is a measure of project success
- Flexibility - adapting to changing circumstances and keeping projects on track whatever happens
- Cost - effective financial planning means project success and client satisfaction
- Risk - identify, quantify and manage risk, avoiding where possible
Responsible to the Project Sponsor for all aspects of the project, we can operate as an extension of the client's organisation, or in an independent capacity. We co-ordinate internal and external resources into a cohesive and motivated team focused on the client's objectives, managing the procurement and appointment of consultants, contractors and suppliers.
We manage the project strategy and design development stage, enabling clients to make informed choices in balancing their objectives within the project’s constraints and risk management regime. All procurement options are explored. Design proposals and programmes are tied to the desired outcomes and budget, and translated into a project execution plan and detailed master programme.
At the project control and delivery stage we ensure that the agreed solution will deliver the business need. We ensure that the contractor’s method statements are viable and that our plans for risk management are sound. Robust team management and change control processes are communicated across the supply chain and maintained throughout construction.
In the final stages we oversee commissioning, agree completion, settle final accounts and ensure a smooth transition of the asset through to ongoing management.
