Reliability rating — minimal risk

The €180M figure represents works coordinated within a consortium (3,500 residential units): it is not Total Workshop's turnover, nor direct contracts or works carried out in-house.

The problem

Deciding on a construction project, today, is confusing.

The three most common issues we see before and during works.

Bids that can't be compared

Different line items, different scopes: hard to see who is really offering what.

Uncertain costs and responsibilities

Without a clear technical and cost picture, the surprises show up on site.

A site without clear direction

Contractors and suppliers out of sync, timelines slipping, decisions postponed.

The path

Three levels of support, one method.

It always starts from the assessment. Project Management and General Contractor are activated only when the project requires them.

Feasibility and cost assessment: costs, timelines, risks, alternatives and scope before you commit.
