We have a team of contract administrators who specialise in finding the best contracts for your project.

Bringing on a Project Manager for your project will cost, on average, between 5% and 8% of your overall budget. However, having the experience of a project manager on your project can bring savings elsewhere in the build, for example on materials. They can also lower the risk of errors leading to budget overruns due to them overseeing the entire project and implementing cost saving measures.

A project that has used a project manager costs around £2,700 per square metre whereas a project that has not used one costs roughly £3,100 per square metre.
