      Capital Projects Acceleration

      Capital Projects Acceleration

      Achieve schedule and cost improvements while maintaining quality and safety.

      Our Experience & Impact

      230+
      projects completed across all sectors
      15-50%
      schedule and cost improvements
      50+
      global experts

      It’s time to rethink your approach to capital projects. They are notoriously complex, and today’s macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, inflation, supply chain and contractor constraints, evolving environmental policies, and other factors only add to the challenge. As companies in the oil, gas, utilities, renewables, and mining sectors prepare to invest billions of dollars in the energy transition, and as companies in other industries—from aerospace, automotive and construction & infrastructure  to chemicals, semiconductors, telecommunications, biopharma, and many more—also plan massive capex investments, we need a new way forward. Every delay or cost overrun hits the bottom line—and customers’ bills—and makes the move to net zero slower and more expensive.

      Whether you are delivering a single major project or addressing a portfolio of many projects, our Capital Projects Acceleration team has defined a comprehensive, battle-tested approach that ensures your projects move forward at speed and deliver outstanding value. It enables you to go beyond the stage gate process and think systematically across the portfolio as you realign your operating model and adopt the digital technologies that will automate your workflows, optimize decision-making and scheduling, and boost efficiency end-to-end. Capital Projects Acceleration can help you capture value across the entire project lifecycle and across all projects in your capital campaign, thanks to a carefully structured program that ensures you are aligned, prepared, and able to deliver projects to their full potential, again and again.
