Planning and Design Engineering for Complex Capital Projects
Our planning engineers and design engineers turn a project’s intent into a buildable, sequenced plan: a design basis everyone works to, a schedule that reflects how the work will actually be done, and coordinated deliverables from concept through commissioning.
Our Perspective
A plan is an engineering deliverable. It should be built from the design, tested against how the work will really be sequenced, and kept current as the project changes.
Planning Engineering
Plans Built by Engineers, Not Just Schedulers
Integrated Master Schedules
Programme-level schedules linking engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning in one logic network.
Engineering & Construction Sequencing
Work packaging, sequencing and phasing that reflect site constraints, access and operations.
Scenario & What-If Planning
Alternative sequences and schedule scenarios tested before commitments are made.
Long-Lead & Procurement Planning
Equipment and materials planned against the critical path, with clear need dates.
Shutdown & Tie-In Planning
Detailed planning for work in operating facilities, where every hour of downtime counts.
Progress & Performance Reporting
Objective progress measurement and dashboards that show where a project really stands.
Design Engineering
A Design Basis Everyone Works To
Design Basis & Criteria
Documented design inputs, standards, assumptions and performance requirements.
Concept & Preliminary Design
Process, layout and system concepts developed to support option selection and estimates.
Design Coordination & Interfaces
Interface management between disciplines, vendors and contractors so nothing falls between the gaps.
Design Reviews & Constructability
Structured reviews that test designs for safety, operability, maintainability and buildability.
Deliverables & Document Management
Deliverable registers, revision control and status tracking from concept to issued for construction.
Estimate & Quantity Support
Engineering quantities and inputs that underpin credible cost estimates.
Across Sectors
Where Our Planning and Design Engineers Work
Data Centres
Phasing, power and long-lead planning, and design coordination across electrical, mechanical and civil.
Life Sciences
Schedules and design coordination that integrate construction, C&Q and turnover in GMP environments.
Mining
Mine waste management planning and site works sequencing, as delivered at the Kiena Mine.
Energy & Industrial
Planning and design for gas processing, carbon capture and energy infrastructure.
Need a Plan That Holds Up?
Our planning and design engineers can support a single project or an entire programme.
