OUR CLIENTS

We work with building contractors, M&E contractors, multi-discipline consultancies and a range of 'end-clients' like Network Rail, London Underground and other rail operators.

Whilst separating our clients into these groups helps us to shape our approach, we believe every client is unique and has specific reasons for considering Fourway. Our challenge is to understand what these are and provide them.

When our clients are bidding for a Project we look very closely at how our skills could be complementary. In bid partnerships we lose our company badge and focus on the team as a whole. Through design, collaborative planning and cost analysis we create innovations and efficiency savings that make a real difference to the overall win prospect. Above all, this ensures the bid receiver sees our client has optimised value and collaborated with their supply chain.

We work with a range of contracting models and shared incentivisation schemes. We have experience in pure alliancing as well as traditional pain gain mechanisms. We believe complete transparency is vital for building trust. We share our estimating components to the smallest level so clients can see exactly how we build up our costs.

We prefer to co-locate with our clients whenever practical. Whatever the stage of the project, working in the same office makes communication easier, enabling us to share goals, gain a common understanding of problems and how best to solve them.

We have wide experience in establishing and using collaborative information management systems which create efficiency and help to build trust.

We work in and support client teams wanting the 'right person for the role'.
