PROJECT RECOVERY
An unfinished project, or one that runs into difficulties during its design or implementation, is costly in terms of both economic and emotional investment. Project recovery is about being able to develop a course of action to quickly restore control, in order to bring the project to successful completion.
At Meghen & Co. we have demonstrable expertise in the recovery of high-end residential projects. Through candid communication and forensic needs assessment, we work to preserve project value, maintain stakeholder support and improve team morale.
Every project is unique and so we tailor our services accordingly. We can offer, for example, a light touch service where we identify project red flags and work with the team to map the route to successful completion. If a more hands-on approach is required, we can support the existing team to the finish line. Alternatively, as Project Managers we can undertake completion of the project for the client.
Our bespoke Project Recovery services include:
- Fee & appointment negotiations
- Full cost overview, including construction, fees (planning, consultant and legal) & FFE - furniture, fixtures and equipment - costs
See case study below
- Project management
- Procurement
- Lifecycle costing

CONSTRUCTION COST CONSULTANCY
Successful projects are those that are delivered safely, to the required quality standards, on time and within budget. The effective management of costs is a vital component in that process. At Meghen & Co. our team of construction cost consultants have both the technical competency and industry experience to provide you with project budgets that address the economic feasibility and health of your project from the very outset. We believe that cost management requires a proactive rather than reactive approach.
By bookending every project with accurate and proactive cost control, our team will ensure that any/all variations are agreed as works proceed and that the final account is agreed within 8 weeks of project completion. Meghen & Co. can work with proprietors, architects, construction managers and contractors to supplement your team’s expertise and bring additional insights to ensure your project’s success.
