Independent project assurance · India and the GCC
Programmes that hold. Positions you can defend.
Project Assure plans, controls and assures major infrastructure and data-centre programmes for owners, contractors and funders across India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Oman. We work from the native files and the contemporaneous record, and we put our name to what we conclude.
Planning. Controls. Forensics. Risk.
Our purpose
Turning programme complexity into decisions you can defend.
Most large projects do not fail because the people on them are unskilled. They fail because the project's own mechanisms, the schedule, the risk register and the progress report, stop telling the truth long before anyone is willing to say so.
We work on that problem. Our planners, controls specialists and forensic analysts sit outside the delivery chain, test the programme against the evidence, and give owners, contractors and funders a view they can act on.
Independent in judgement. Practical in delivery.

Why Project Assure
Independent people, accountable for their conclusions.
01
Brought in when it matters
Mandates usually begin when internal reporting has lost credibility, claims exposure is building, or a programme needs a diagnosis the project team cannot give itself.
02
Planning, contracts and claims together
Schedule analysis, commercial understanding and contract administration in one team, because real project problems sit across all three.
03
Design and approval risk understood
We model how design maturity, statutory approvals and environmental clearances interact with programme commitments, where many delays begin.
04
Senior people on every mandate
The person you brief is the person who does the work. No hand-off to a junior team after the first meeting.
05
Positions built to be tested
Independent methods and disclosed assumptions, prepared to hold up in negotiation, before a DAAB, in adjudication or in arbitration.
