Cost Management together with an adaptable structure defines and ensures a smooth implementation of work procedures. A cost control calculation is necessary in all stages of a project due to unavoidable continual updates and corrections throughout all phases of the project. Clearly organized cost groups provide not only a better overview of costs, but allow the decisive cost indicators to be identified and filtered out, such as cost drivers. When these indicators are recognized and analysed early, GPAC can better control, direct and optimise costs. The expert team at GPAC accompanies its clients as a competent partner not only in strategic but also operative cost management.

When evaluating the bids, GPAC creates the necessary transparency and comparisons to provide our clients in the selection process with a secure basis for their decision. The lowest bid does not always signal the best bidder. During talks with the bidders, GPAC filters out which firms possess the necessary know-how and resources to be able to realistically complete the project. As an independent consultant, our team examines project specifications for thoroughness and deficiencies thereby minimizing the number of supplemental contracts. GPAC accompanies and supports its clients in organizing and coordinating the tendering process as well as all matters involving the letting process.

Inspection and approval of construction and plans not only ensures requirements and standards are met, but also bring about legal consequences. For example it signals when compensation is due, the begin of the warranty term and the burden of proof of defect falls on the client/user – no longer the executing firm. An inspection can therefore never be free of personal interests. To protect the interests of our clients, GPAC is a reliable partner for all technical and legal matters. Services: I Recording of inspection proceedings I Accompaniment and consultant services in public sector inspections I Inspection and approval of construction and technical services I Final inspections
