CASE STUDY

One engagement, start to finish

A real engagement, anonymised. The brief: sustain NEC compliance while building the client a controlled path to running the framework with their own team.

1EMBED

A senior QS in the client’s team four days a week: NEC guidance, change management, payment cycles, risk and opportunity.

2BUILD

Their contract management system, built inside their own Microsoft 365: registers, contractor onboarding and Power BI reporting.

3HAND OVER

As their own surveyors came on board we stepped back: a structured, documented handover, training for their staff, and the system stayed theirs.

Questions buyers ask us

Advisory and fixed-scope work usually starts within days. Embedded placements depend on the availability you need. We confirm it on the first call, before any proposal is written.

Embedded consultants are charged at an agreed day rate against submitted timesheets. Fixed-scope work and the contract management system are priced as a fixed fee before we start. Either way you get a written quotation first. No retainers, no open-ended fees.

Both, anywhere in the UK. Our consultants integrate with your team on site, remotely, or a mix, whatever the project needs. The contract management system is delivered remotely into your Microsoft 365 tenant, with training for your team included.

Chartered senior quantity surveyors, supported where it makes sense by intermediate surveyors under senior oversight. Never unsupervised juniors. The person who scopes your engagement is responsible for its delivery, with escalation to director level built into every engagement.

When you need long-term or permanent resource, we shortlist experienced quantity surveyors against your brief, interview and vet every candidate ourselves, and the surveyor joins your team, with Metroun senior oversight for as long as you want it.
