Project & Cost Management focusing on best possible results
Project and Cost Management provided by TA Europe is a tailored piece of consultancy, focusing on a solution and results. Before providing you with a fee proposal we need to understand your needs, your desired outcome and the specifics of your and the project’s organisation. Having done that, we will offer you a solution and a way how to achieve your targets. We provide you with a value proposition as an outcome of our offered services.
Our Project and Cost Management teams set up a cost, time and quality plan for your project, reflecting your needs and your business plan. We measure costs and productivity by assessing all aspects of your project. Our team members have a financial and/or engineering background, which enables us to manage your project while constantly evaluating and monitoring the results against your financial frameworks, time schedules and quality needs.
Project and Cost Management Scope, Documentation
Project and Cost Management has been defined and structured by various organisations to make sure that clients can agree and control services. TA Europe is capable and used to setting up and following diverse Project Management scope of services. However, we focus on results and agree targets, as well as how we will achieve those, with our clients. We use optimised management and reporting tools to provide transparency, as well as adapting them to your needs and your own systems.
Programming on different Detail Levels
To achieve the targeted completion date we work with different levels of detailed programmes. The initial General Programme, showing the main activities and milestones of the whole project is based on TA Europe’s entire experience, considering all available information and dependencies at the beginning of a project. With ongoing progress more detailed programmes will be developed and agreed with all project members, helping to control the activities and set out interim targets and define contract dates. Regular comparisons of planned and actual programme help to analyse deviations from the planned programme and to bring it back on track.
Cost Management – Controlling and ongoing Improvement
Our Cost Manager co-operates with all involved parties to investigate and estimate the cost of delivering the project on time and in quality. Value engineering is always part of our initial and ongoing exercise. Target is not only to remain within the agreed business plan but also to identify and realise possible improvements and savings.
Our reporting tools are your reporting tools and therefore are always tailored to the client specific cost structure and ready to be implemented into your financial model.
Maximising Value depending on Clients’ Exit Strategy
Our team members are used to work close with our clients financial advisors to not only develop a sustainable businessplan but also to identify smart investment- or saving-options to maximize the value of the project, depending on the planned exit strategy.
Control Spending during Construction Phase
Our Project Managers review your allocated budgets at each stage of the project and track spending. We take responsibility to control costs through approving contracts and invoices as well as managing changes and negotiating claims.

We adapt our services perfectly to your needs, from full-time Project Management services, focusing on persistent on-site presence, to part-time Project Management services with a streamlined and straightforward scope of service.
