Support for the Employer
Most disputes start in the tender documents. We help the Employer write them so they do not.
A specification copied from an old project, Particular Conditions that contradict the drawings or a programme requirement nobody can check will cost the Employer later, in variations and claims. During construction, the Employer needs to know where the project really stands and which claims are coming.
We prepare and check tender documents and specifications, review the contract before award, and during construction give the Employer or its PMO a monthly view of progress, open notices and claims, with a first assessment of each claim against the contract.
What we prepare
- Tender documents and particular specifications
- Contract review before award: conflicts, gaps and time bars
- Monthly review of the Contractor's progress report and programme
- Register of the Contractor's notices and claims, with their status
- First assessment of each claim against the contract
- PMO reports for the Employer's management
How we work on it
Fewer conflicts at tender
Conditions, specifications and drawings are read together before they are issued.
No surprises
Every notice from the Contractor is on the Employer's register within a week.
Independent of the Contractor
On a project where we support the Employer, we take no work from the Contractor.
When clients call us

Yes. We support the Employer's own team and do not take over the Engineer's duties under the contract.
Do you prepare public tender documents in Türkiye?
We prepare technical specifications and the technical parts of tender documents. The administrative parts stay with the contracting authority.
