Investment monitoring
Our building consultancy specialists offer independent monitoring of development, refurbishment, and capital works to protect funders and investors.
Also known as fund or development monitoring, investment monitoring provides stakeholders with clear reporting on risk, drawdown requests, completion status, and emerging issues. Our building consultancy specialists offer independent monitoring of development, refurbishment, and capital works to protect funders and investors by assessing project viability, verifying cash flows, and tracking progress to ensure financial commitments are met. We provide clients with an independent technical view of a project’s progress, cost exposure, programme risk, and quality.
Investment monitoring services
Due diligence
Our specialists support pre-commencement building works by carrying out due diligence checks, including an initial assessment of project documentation, statutory approvals and procurement status. We identify project risks relating to cost, programme, specification and quality to mitigate issues early and avoid escalations. We also conduct compliance checks, including verification of compliance indicators, consultant appointments, insurance, and warranties.
Construction stage oversight
Once the project enters the construction phase, we provide operational and project management support, conducting regular site inspections and preparing detailed progress reports for funders, investors, landlords, or purchasers. We also offer technical commentary on drawdown applications, valuation evidence, change control, and contingency usage.
Post-project support
Our support extends beyond construction completion with practical monitoring, including defect status tracking when required. We can also complete a final review of compliance and completion documentation to safeguard your investment in the long term.
Peace of mind in complex cases
Investment monitoring services are particularly valuable for funders and stakeholders who bear the ultimate financial risk but may not have day-to-day control over the construction site. These situations often involve projects with forward-funding agreements, speculative developments, and complex, high-risk refurbishments. Our specialists have extensive experience helping clients navigate these complex scenarios, ensuring projects are delivered in strict accordance with the agreed scope, approvals, budget, and programme.
