The rpa:group provides a range of specialist consultancy services to the global construction industry, with a strong emphasis on agility and personal service across all activities.
We are passionate about our clients success and we believe that taking ownership is the key to delivering dependable outcomes. We do not subscribe to post box management and are keen to fully integrate with our clients to share success.
The rpa:group’s operational strengths come from the assembly of a highly professional and experienced Senior Management Team, making up a strongly skilled workforce that is aimed at supporting projects from inception to operation, across all sectors.
Our core strengths span a range of projects from cutting edge student accommodation to schools, hotels, residential projects, restaurant chains and offices. Streamlining efficiencies, reviewing design solutions and supply chain management, are areas we excel in. We use our experience to deliver clarity, quality and a perfect solution on time and on budget.
We deliver a level of service that exceeds industry best practice. Our highly qualified Project Managers are able to bring their extensive experience to bear on each and every project, in a considered and professional approach. Our key point of difference is that we will own projects and do whatever it takes to ensure successful completion. We challenge, collaborate and drive projects forward by investing our own professional capital.
Our working practice employs universally accepted process structures and principles such as ISO 9001:2008, PRINCE 2 and RIBA. Whether we are acting independently, or as part of a client’s internal team, our offer is always underpinned by a strong foundation in project programming, cost control and change management.
At the beginning of every Project, we ensure that we fully understand your requirements, seeing all aspects of a project from your perspective. This enables us to adopt a well-informed and straightforward approach, providing imaginative solutions to complex problems. We pride ourselves in fully immersing ourselves into each client organisation to ensure a seamless delivery.
