Davis Langdon’s project managers are proactive problem solvers and communicators - able to listen, understand and empathise, as well as negotiate and persuade with clarity and firmness.

We are professionals who understand what each part of the team needs to do within the whole. At the same time we are specialists in management - skilled in keeping a team moving forward, whatever the obstacles, through the four main stages of a project. 

At the inception stage, we establish and communicate clarity of purpose about the client’s business strategy and desired outcomes. In tandem, we oversee masterplans, planning consents, site acquisitions and funding requirements.

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 check 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.
