Construction & Real Estate

Your business runs on projects, not systems. With every undertaking, participants, access, tools and responsibilities change. At the same time, approvals have to work quickly, institutional clients set their own requirements and connected buildings extend your responsibility far beyond the construction phase.

Payment fraud
Manipulated payment data can turn a routine process into considerable financial damage within minutes.
Project structure
When a project ends, responsibilities change while data, access and systems continue to exist.
Partner landscape
Many parties access the same data and plans.
Building technology
Connected properties become part of your long-term responsibility.
What we encounter in this environment
„
Every construction site has its own IT, every partner their own access, and payment approvals run through processes that change with every project. In the boardroom you talk about margins, delays and change orders. It is exactly at this speed that small changes – for example to payment data or access – can have very large consequences.
How we see it

The real challenge does not lie in a single system. It arises at the transitions between project, partners, approvals and responsibilities. What matters most is therefore whether processes and people keep working reliably even when pace and participants change.

Typical framework conditions

What makes this environment challenging.

In the construction and real estate industry, work is done in projects that bring many participants together for a limited time. Requirements arise not only from the sector’s own regulation, but also from the standards of institutional investors, public-sector developers and operators. We encounter three patterns in this environment again and again.

Recurring patterns from our practice
01

Projects end, access does not

When an undertaking is completed, data, systems and responsibilities often remain. What matters is therefore handovers that carry beyond the individual project.

02

Speed is part of the service

Approvals often have to be fast, otherwise the site stands still. It is precisely under time pressure that it becomes apparent how unambiguously payment and access processes are regulated.

03

Many participants, one responsibility

Planners, trades and property managers bring their own IT. What has to be answered for is an overall result in a landscape that only partly belongs to the company itself.
