“I hired a task force — a dedicated team that drove the project forward from day one, from coordination to on-site delivery.”

Execution Director

When an electrical or MEP package slips, you don't need a big consultancy or a stack of CVs. You need a small, senior team that has delivered on projects like yours, reads the situation in days, and recovers the schedule alongside your people.

When teams call us

The moment the project starts to move against you

The biggest need isn't at the start of a project. It's when delivery, documentation and the commercial position all start slipping at once — and the team running it is too deep in the work to step back and fix it.

Schedule slipping

The electrical package is falling behind and the GC is losing control of the date.

MEP coordination drifting

The installation sequence is drifting and coordination between trades is starting to come apart.

Commissioning not ready

Energisation and IST are approaching with no real readiness behind them.

QA/QC falling behind

ITPs, punch lists and test packs aren't keeping up with the works.

Underperforming subcontractor

A sub below you is underperforming technically and dragging the front.

Claims building up

Variations, EOT and disruption are mounting but nobody is documenting them.

What's happening on your project? (select all that apply)
Electrical package is slipping behind schedule
MEP coordination is drifting / interfaces failing

Claims / EOT are building up but not documented
Short on senior staff for a delivery peak
Pick at least one to continue.
Two ways we package the same senior capability

Services built around how you're being squeezed

The same team, packaged for two different buyers. We start with a paid diagnosis, then deploy the task force that fits.

For electrical / MEP subcontractors

Delivery Recovery + Claims

You're squeezed from two sides at once — schedule and money. We help you deliver the works and protect your commercial position at the same time.

  • Electrical package recovery & acceleration
  • QA/QC close-out — ITPs, punch lists, test packs
  • Commissioning readiness & handover
  • Variations, EOT & disruption documented as you recover
Includes a Commercial / Claims Engineer — often the difference between recovering and losing money.
For main contractors (GC / EPC)

Delivery & Acceleration Support

You need senior capacity for a delivery peak or a package that's drifting — collaborative, embedded, and gone once the job is back on track.

  • Electrical package lead & MEP coordination support
  • Schedule recovery, look-ahead & critical path
  • Site supervision & works coordination
  • Commissioning readiness & project controls
Pure delivery support — your own back office keeps the commercial side.
Why us

A team, not a pile of CVs

Agencies place individuals. We place a cohesive team that has already delivered in your main contractor's environment — so ramp-up is measured in days, not weeks.

01

Knows your GC

Our people have delivered on projects for the major GCs and know their systems and procedures.

02

Lands running

A pre-formed, senior team — no forming-storming, no learning the environment from zero.

03

Independent

We report what we see. Useful precisely because we're not the party that let it slip.

04

Built to hand over

The recovery plan lives in your team. We're not trying to embed forever.

How it works

Start small, scale only if it's worth it

We never start by asking you to commit a big team. We start with a diagnosis that stands on its own — and sells the rest for itself.

Step 1 · Weeks 1–2

MEP Delivery Health-Check

One or two senior engineers, on your project for 10 working days, at a fixed fee. A low-commitment diagnosis that gives you a plan you can act on.

  • Current state vs. plan — no optimism bias
  • True critical path & risk register
  • Recovery roadmap for your own team
Step 2 · Weeks 3–16

Recovery Task Force

If it's worth it, the Health-Check becomes the scope and start plan for a 4–8 person team that delivers the recovery with you.

  • Senior team matched to the diagnosis
  • Health-Check fee credited to the engagement
  • Embedded, then a clean hand-over
Talk to us

A 30-minute call to scope your package.

Tell us what's slipping. We'll tell you whether a 2-week Health-Check makes sense and what the fixed fee looks like.
