Where we sit
Appointed at concept. Still there at handover.
Most consultants join for one phase. We run the full lifecycle, which is what makes delay attribution, cost variance and contract exposure traceable rather than argued after the fact.

Common questions
What a project management consultant actually does.
What does a project management consultant (PMC) do?
A PMC acts for the client, not the contractor. It sets the programme and budget, proof-checks the design, runs tendering, monitors progress and cost on site, and closes the project out at handover. The point is that delay and cost overrun get traced and controlled as they happen, instead of being argued about afterwards.
How is a PMC different from a contractor?
A contractor builds the works and is paid for the works. A PMC is appointed by the client to protect the client's programme, budget and contractual position — including checking the contractor's claims, quality and progress. The two roles are deliberately independent of each other.
When should we appoint a PMC?
As early as the detailed project report or feasibility stage. Most of the cost and programme benefit is available before the design is frozen and tenders go out. We are also appointed mid-project, usually for cost control, delay analysis or dispute support.
Do you work outside Kerala?
Yes. We are based in Ernakulam and most of our projects are in Kerala, but we take appointments anywhere in India. Planning, cost consultancy, tendering and claims work runs remotely with periodic site visits. Full-time construction supervision needs people on site, so we mobilise a resident team for the project and price it accordingly.
Do you handle government projects?
Yes. Our team has scheduling and monitoring experience on works routed through KIIFB, HITES, WAPCOS and KSITIL, including prequalification, tendering and empanelment support.
Do you take on residential projects?
Yes. Alongside commercial and institutional work we provide PMC and cost consultancy on private residences and apartment developments, including projects in Kollam and Mavelikkara.
How are your fees structured?
Typically as a percentage of project value, or a fixed monthly fee for defined scope such as scheduling and cost monitoring. We issue a written scope and fee proposal after understanding the project's size, stage and duration.
Where we work
Our office is in Kalamassery, Ernakulam, and most of our work is across Kerala:
We also take appointments anywhere in India. Planning, cost consultancy, tendering and claims work can be run remotely with periodic site visits; full-time construction supervision needs a resident team, which we mobilise for the project. Tell us where the site is and we will propose a structure that fits.
