PROJECT PRODUCTIVITY REVIEW & AUDITING
We optimize our client’s assets by providing project productivity reviews and auditing that reveal errors and obstacles that may impede project success and offer “Lessons Learned” that may assist in enhancing the performance of future projects and programs. We understand that the needs and expectations of businesses and stakeholders are evolving, and projects are becoming increasingly complex and unpredictable. Therefore, it is critical that productivity reviews and auditing are completed in an efficient and routine manner. With transparency and clarity at the heart of our firm, we use cutting-edge technology and a wide range of experience to deliver trust across all financial activities, auditing, analysis, reporting, and recommendations.

CONSTRUCTABILITY REVIEW
Our first-hand construction experience aids in uncovering problems, potential errors, omissions, ambiguities, or conflicts through peer review in the design stage – helping prevent repercussions during the bidding or construction phase. This thorough review keeps your design within budget by infusing in-depth knowledge combined with over 45 years of experience into the project’s design from start to finish during the pre-construction phase.

TROUBLED PROJECT RECOVERY
Our Troubled Project Recovery team provides the technical knowledge and a greater understanding of the issues affecting the budget and schedule. We assist clients in recovering the time, costs, and quality, by applying sound management techniques and a control framework, focusing on demystifying the construction process while increasing the efficiency of the process. Abbott’s excerpts leverage our implemented control framework to halt the project from continuing its current trajectory, while forging a path for the project to recover and gain ground quickly.

PMO SET-UP
For decades, capital projects have been the backbone of the global economy. Yet schedule and budget overruns are still exceedingly prevalent, and project outcomes are not improving. Our team at Abbott embraces the disciplined and methodical processes of implementing project controls to support project management methodologies – actively controlling the given project’s schedule and cost. By establishing a robust PMO that culminates a versatile yet powerful team, we enable our clients to deliver complex projects successfully and efficiently.
We help you gain insight and visibility into your contracts by determining the correct contracting vehicle, overseeing the solicitation process, reviewing the contract terms, evaluating the quality of bids, and modifying the contracting language to meet the project needs.

BUSINESS & COMMERCIAL STRATEGY
A well-defined commercial strategy should be the heart of every business. Abbott examines whether the project is commercially viable in relation to the project and the future of the business’ needs, values, goals.
Accurately define your project needs with a reliable feasibility study that delivers a thorough and informed opinion at the early phases of a project, along with alternative options, if necessary. We use cost benchmarking data and cost modeling to examine design alternatives and uncover the most cost-effective solutions within the project’s scope.
Maximize opportunities in today’s real estate markets with an expert analysis of the components within your financial models and a proven value investment and development framework. We believe investment strategy is subordinate to the development strategy and should be consistent with its goals and directions. Our team implements an effective investment strategy adaptation not when the changes emerge, and the company feels the negative effect or recognizes the lost revenues, but when they are merely anticipated.
