Shared. Risk. Solutions.
Consultancy Solutions to the Construction & Civil Engineering Market
Construction Adjudications are caused by a lack of Competence of project participants
Is this the expected standard?
Where knowledge or capacity gaps exist, shared professional risk is scarce. Traditional consultancies will hide behind a time measure when a client is at its most exposed. When capacity in a high-demand/ low-supply market is stretched, recruiters share no professional risk. This leads to a lack of accountability and margin erosion. Magnus bridges this gap.
Whether it be in delivery, pre-construction or pipeline generation Magnus can bespoke a solution that is output-driven.
Magnus Performace Data
Managing Risk Together
Risk management and mitigation is at the forefront of Project and Business leaders in Construction.
Yet when contractors lean on their supply chain within the consultancy lane it often met with reward on effort and best endeavours.
Magnus finds the middle ground where best endeavours meets obligation.
We maintain independent diaries, records and geo-located photographic evidence of our activities
- Knowledge Gap: Price & Deliverables. Mobilising teams for output-defined contracts based on client programme, scope items and necessary documentation to meet the main-contract specification.
- Capacity Gap: Time Charge: Professional Service Contracts under defined scope with errors, omissions and defects as standard with handover costs included as obligation. Additional deliverable items can be included as milestone payments
“A party to a dispute, particularly if there is arbitration, will learn three lessons (often too late) the Importance of Records, The Importance of Records, The Importance of Records”

Delivering Competency
Collaboration & Liability
Define the Scope. Agree the Measure. Agree Liabilities. Agree Price
Record the Measure.
Records and performance standard are time-stamped, geo-located and measured on weekly basis within Magnus Quality Management System; to enable smooth month-end payment assessment.
Teams, Bona-Fide Consultants or a Fusion?
We can offer teams of consultants within our core lanes or provide bona-fide consultants stand alone. Where a wider scope exists, Magnus will include a technical lead add no additional prelim cost to manage interface to keep performance on track. Relinquishing control and allowing Magnus full selection autonomy; risk-allocation is outsourced further still opening up a market-space beyond the reach of recruitment procurement channels.
