Project Controls Management
Schedule, cost, change, risk and reporting designed, staffed and led by RichardBarkley, running to a disciplined monthly cycle from the first period.
A senior controls function, operating within weeks.
Owners usually recognize the need for stronger controls at the worst possible moment: after notice to proceed, with commitments already flowing. Recruiting a controls lead, schedulers and cost engineers takes a quarter. Configuring systems takes another. The project does not wait for either.
We mobilize a complete function: a senior controls lead, planners, cost engineers and analysts, with procedures, coding structures and reporting already proven on programs of similar scale. We can run controls for you, embed inside your team or build the function and hand it to your people. The first closed period, with an integrated report your executives can act on, typically lands within the first two cycles.

Technology we work in
Platform-fluent and vendor-independent. We work inside your environment, or recommend the one that fits.
What changes when we arrive.
Not activity. Results your board, your lenders and your teams can feel.
Experienced controls in place within weeks, without a recruiting cycle.
Time and cost reconciled at every data date.
A function that keeps performing after the engagement ends.
What leaders ask us first.
Straight answers. If yours isn't logged here, raise it with us directly. A principal will respond.
Will you work alongside our existing controls staff?
Yes. Many engagements fill specific gaps in scheduling, cost or reporting while raising the standard of the whole team, without displacing the people you already trust.
Do you support contractors as well as owners?
Yes, but never both sides of the same project. Independence is checked before every engagement begins.
How quickly can a team mobilize?
Core roles typically mobilize in two to four weeks, depending on location and scale. A senior lead can often start sooner.
Program Controls
Program-level controls that bind multiple projects, contractors and funding sources into a single picture sponsors can steer by.
PMO Services
Design, launch and operation of project management offices that raise delivery performance and give leadership a portfolio it can steer.
Cost Controls
Budget structure, commitment tracking and cost-to-complete forecasting that protect contingency and keep the final cost the one you approved.
Command the date you announced.
Book a 45-minute program review with a senior principal. You will leave with an independent read of where your schedule and cost really stand, and the three moves that matter most.
