About the project

ChandlerKBS carried out an audit and review of the client's end-to-end processes for major works projects, which covered substation and protection, overhead lines and underground cables.

The review considered the following:

  • Project and cost management procedures
  • Project value engineering
  • Project management governance procedures
  • Framework contractual / commercial arrangements
  • Framework materials sourcing arrangements

Based upon the review we were able to:

  • Identify key risks to successful project delivery
  • Assess the quality of project management controls
  • Provide an independent assessment of the status of the programme and projects
  • Provide assurance on the adequacy of project controls
