PPP contract due diligence and risk mitigation consultancy

Mitigate risks in the project delivery phase by leveraging SWG’s due diligence services. Our specialist PPP consultants undertake a comprehensive contract review and where potentially conflicting interpretations may arise, secure validation of the expected outcome to enable you meet service delivery expectations. Should we discover contractual omissions or conflicting clauses, we flag these to enable informed discussions between stakeholders. This ensures a clear, transparent contract from project initiation and establishes well-defined communication channels to ensure long term operational success.

Allows all parties to make informed decisions Our PPP due diligence consulting provides clarity and definition, promoting understanding of contractual terms by all parties. By discussing ambiguous terminology and highlighting conflicting clauses, our team ensure a harmonious foundation for the operational phase, with few disputes and more efficient operation.

Ensures transparency between all PPP stakeholders We meet with all stakeholders together, ensuring everything is discussed openly, agreed upon and documented. We have reviewed hundreds of contracts, recognising terms and phrases with the potential to cause problems. Through discussion, transparency can be greatly improved, leading to stronger partnerships.

Delivers maximum value from PPP contracts Unnecessary or unavoidable penalties cause friction in the relationship and any disputes arising over this waste valuable time. By identifying and removing such clauses, service providers can focus their efforts on optimising the building or infrastructure environment and build a more stable relationship with the public sector partner.
