Construction & Cost

Project Management in the Cayman Islands

One person answerable for the programme, the budget and the quality. That person is us.

What this service is

Project management is single-point accountability for delivering a construction project to time, cost and quality. Nautic acts client-side: writing the brief, assembling and managing the consultant and contractor team, holding the programme and budget, controlling change, and running commissioning and handover through to practical completion and the end of the defects period.

Projects rarely fail on one discipline. They fail in the gaps between them, and a client-side project manager exists to close those gaps.

Working with Nautic

How an instruction runs.

  • Brief and fee. A short conversation about the property and the purpose, followed by a written fee proposal with the scope and basis of appointment stated plainly.
  • Inspection and information. We attend the property and gather the drawings, contracts, policies or accounts the instruction needs.
  • Analysis. Measurement, costing and evidence gathering, the part that decides whether the conclusion holds up under scrutiny.
  • Report. A clear document with the conclusion at the front, the reasoning behind it, and the assumptions declared.
  • Follow-through. We remain available to explain, defend and act on the advice, to a lender, an insurer, a board or a tribunal.

FAQ

Project Management, questions we are asked

What is the difference between a project manager and a contractor?

The contractor builds the project. The project manager represents the client's interests: defining what is to be built, appointing and coordinating the team, and holding cost, time and quality to account.

Do you manage renovations as well as new builds?

Yes. Fit-outs and refurbishments frequently carry more risk than new build, because existing conditions are unknown until opened up. They benefit from tight management.

Can you take over a project that has already started?

Yes. We begin with a review of contract, programme, cost position and outstanding risk, and give you a written picture of where the project genuinely stands before we recommend a course of action.
