Consulting
AB4B's Consulting services provide expert guidance and strategic oversight to ensure the successful delivery of capital projects across all sectors. We act as independent advisors, offering services that include feasibility studies, risk assessment, project scheduling, procurement management, and quality control. Our consultants possess deep industry knowledge to identify potential challenges early, implement proactive mitigation strategies, and optimize project costs and timelines. We partner with clients from the initiation phase through closeout to enhance decision-making, ensure regulatory compliance, and drive projects toward achieving defined objectives and maximum return on investment.
Feasibility Studies & Due Diligence
Before any capital is committed, this service provides an in-depth analysis of a proposed project's viability. It assesses key factors like site conditions, regulatory hurdles, projected costs, and potential return on investment (ROI). Our reports provide clients with the data needed to make informed "go/no-go" decisions, mitigate early-stage risks, and secure financing by confirming technical and economic feasibility.
Cost Estimation & Value Engineering (VE)
This service delivers detailed, accurate cost projections at various stages of the design process, from conceptual budgets to final estimates. Value Engineering is an integrated systematic effort to optimize project functions by analyzing cost versus performance. We identify opportunities to achieve the required functional needs at the lowest life-cycle cost without sacrificing essential quality or scope.
Construction Risk Management & Claims Avoidance
Proactive risk management involves identifying, assessing, and prioritizing potential threats (e.g., contractual disputes, delays, material shortages, safety hazards) throughout the project lifecycle. This service focuses on developing mitigation strategies and processes to minimize the impact of adverse events. We also help draft and review contracts to reduce the likelihood of costly construction claims and litigation.
Project Scheduling & Management (P-S-M)
This service focuses on the systematic planning and execution framework for complex projects. We develop comprehensive Critical Path Method (CPM) schedules to define activity sequences and durations, ensuring projects are delivered on time and within budget. This includes resource allocation, progress monitoring, and establishing clear communication protocols among all project teams, owners, and stakeholders.
