We all know examples of infrastructure, new construction and renovation projects that went badly. The financial and organisational consequences can be massive. AT Osborne performs audits and evaluations geared toward increasing the quality of your project or organisation. They can also help you approach future projects from alternative angles and learn from the experience. We answer questions such as: How is my project or organisation doing? Am I meeting the relevant (quality) standards and/or agreements? Could the delays have been avoided? Am I achieving the intended results and to what extent do these contribute to the aim of the project? Where did my project go wrong? How do my project results compare to equivalent (international) projects? These are just a few of the questions you may have in common with many other organisations. Answering them is what we do day in, day out.
