About Spire’s Construction Consulting Services
In a large construction project, problems can arise at any time. Without early intervention, these problems can quickly derail project progress or lead to disputes. We tailor our consulting services to resolve issues promptly or prevent them from happening in the first place.
Our consulting services include:
Project Controls
Our project controls include a range of capabilities that help keep construction projects on schedule and within budget. For example, we develop Critical Path Method schedules, monitor milestone completion, and identify emerging issues while they’re still simple to resolve.
Through our budget management services, we build conceptual budgets to set accurate expectations early and reduce the risk of overruns and disputes later. Our cost estimating combines detailed project quantities with market trends, providing a clear view of expected costs before decisions are made.
Project Management
When your project needs dedicated oversight to ensure all parties move toward shared objectives, we can help. Our consultants become an extension of your team, improving communication between stakeholders and coordinating work throughout the life cycle.
Beyond day-to-day oversight, we help owners and contractors manage change orders to keep projects on track. Our consultants evaluate cost and schedule impacts, then work with both parties to reach an agreement.
Dispute Resolution
Disputes commonly arise from claims when the stakes are high. Prompt resolution is crucial to minimize any disruption they might cause. Whether you’re pursuing a claim or defending against one, we provide forensic analysis to identify the root cause, quantify damages, and support a timely resolution.
If a dispute has escalated to arbitration or litigation, our consultants provide expert witness testimony grounded in a thorough investigation. We explain complex findings in plain terms and back them with reports that hold up under scrutiny.
Construction Advisory
Project teams often face big-picture questions involving project feasibility, program planning, and risk. With our construction advisory services, we simplify decision-making around budgeting and risk management to help your team move forward with confidence.
We also advise on organizational design and provide custom management training to prepare your organization for complex work. Whether you’re launching a new program or managing an existing portfolio, we’ll help you improve performance on both a company level and a program level.
A Proactive-Forensic Consulting Company in Atlanta, Georgia
Unlike firms that focus solely on project controls or dispute resolution, we do both. With our background in claims consulting, we’ve seen how budget overruns, delays, and quality issues develop. We apply these lessons learned to the work we do to prevent similar problems on our clients’ projects. Our integrated approach delivers several advantages:
- Problems caught early: Our forensic experience helps us recognize the early indicators of issues that commonly escalate. We identify these risks while corrective action remains straightforward and low-cost.
- One supportive team: The same team handles project controls, project management, and dispute support, enabling seamless collaboration across capabilities. We also learn your project’s history, contracts, and stakeholders from the start, which means faster, more informed guidance.
- Dispute-ready documentation: We maintain detailed reports throughout our partnership. This documentation supports your position, whether you’re pursuing or responding to a claim, and it saves you from reconstructing project history from incomplete records.
- Dual perspective in negotiations: Forensic work has shown us how owners and contractors typically approach disagreements. We use that insight to advise clients during change order negotiations and contract discussions, helping resolve issues before they escalate into formal disputes.
- Objective analysis: We are an independent consulting firm. Our objectivity allows us to provide unbiased, fact-based recommendations that facilitate fair decision-making and productive negotiations.
- Custom solutions: Each project brings distinct requirements and constraints. We adapt our services to fit your objectives rather than apply a one-size-fits-all approach.
