Making the right investment decisions in essential to achieving desired outcomes. We develop the policies, strategies, plan and business cases to support organisations to select and justify investments. We then provide the capabilities, tools, governance and cultural change to ensure that organisations select the optimal investment options, given their strategic goals and outcomes.
Our investment planning methodology, honed over two decades in the UK, is continually refined as it is applied to multi-billion-pound portfolios. Adaptable to organisational maturity and short-term needs, our risk-based, structured approach ensures companies make the right decisions and comply with relevant regulatory requirements and guidance.
To inform this process, we support business in laying out the long-term (5-25+ year) view of required outcomes and the resultant investment needs. We do this through creation of asset policies that can optimise across the asset life-cycle for cost, performance and risk to service. These policies lay out major investment requirements alongside corresponding maintenance regimes, selecting reactive, preventative or predictive maintenance as required to deliver service levels.
At the heart of good investment decision making is the deep understanding of the relationship between each individual asset and the service an organisation provides. We provide a range of models to help understand these relationships and begin to model asset risk and how these impact outcomes, and therefore how it can best be managed. This relies on quantifying KPIs and service levels in monetary terms, enabling evidence-based optimisation of how assets are managed.
