PROJECT DELIVERY & MANAGEMENT
Project management that protects delivery, budget and outcomes
AltMarkt provides client-side project management and building project delivery support for schools, academy trusts, healthcare organisations and public sector clients, helping approved plans become completed works with clearer control and accountability.
AltMarkt Services Ltd is a RICS Regulated Firm with over 18 years’ experience supporting schools, academy trusts, healthcare organisations and public sector clients through independent estates consultancy, building surveying, architectural design and project delivery.
FROM APPROVAL TO COMPLETION
Managing the detail so projects keep moving
Project delivery is where Estate Strategy & Planning Services, Capital Funding & Investment Planning Services and Architectural Design Services have to become real, usable improvements. At this stage, clarity, communication and control matter.
AltMarkt supports clients through the stages that often place the greatest pressure on internal teams: defining the brief, coordinating consultants, preparing procurement, managing contractors, monitoring progress and dealing with issues before they become costly delays.
Our role is to act as an extension of the client team, protecting budget, programme, quality and operational continuity across live school, academy trust, healthcare and public sector projects.
CLEAR CONTROL
A structured route through complex delivery
Construction project management becomes more complex when several moving parts need to align. That may include Building Surveying Services, Architectural Design Services, Capital Funding & Investment Planning Services, funding conditions, procurement routes, contractor mobilisation, access restrictions, safeguarding requirements and communication with stakeholders.
We help clients see what needs to happen, who is responsible, which decisions are outstanding and where risks need active management. Working alongside Contract Administration Services and Estate Strategy & Planning Services, we bring structure to projects that might otherwise become reactive, unclear or difficult to control while helping clients deliver successful outcomes with confidence.
HOW WE SUPPORT DELIVERY
Client-side project management for live estates
AltMarkt provides practical project management support from early mobilisation through to handover. We help clients maintain oversight, challenge assumptions and keep decisions moving while protecting the operational needs of the estate.
Brief and Programme Control
Defining project scope, key stages, responsibilities, decision points and realistic programme requirements before works begin.
Consultant and Contractor Coordination
Coordinating consultants, contractors and client-side stakeholders so information flows properly and delivery remains aligned.
Risk and Issue Management
Monitoring progress, identifying risks, recording actions and supporting timely decisions when delivery issues arise.
Employer’s Agent Support
Supporting client-side responsibilities, communication, contractor management and project control where an Employer’s Agent role is required.
Site Progress Monitoring
Reviewing progress against programme, identifying emerging issues and helping clients understand what is happening on site.
Completion and Handover Support
Supporting snagging, handover records, practical completion, lessons learned and the final steps needed for a usable outcome.
ON-SITE OVERSIGHT
Keeping works moving without losing sight of the estate
Capital works often need to be delivered around pupils, staff, patients, visitors, neighbours and operational deadlines. AltMarkt helps clients manage the practical realities of live estate delivery, including access, phasing, communication, site safety interfaces and disruption planning.
Our project management support is grounded in technical building knowledge, allowing us to challenge assumptions, interpret site progress and keep the client informed in clear, practical terms.
COMPLETION AND HANDOVER
Delivery is only successful when the outcome works
We support clients through the final stages of project delivery, helping manage snagging, practical completion, handover information and lessons learned. This helps ensure completed works are not only finished, but usable, documented and aligned with the original objective.
For funded, time-sensitive or estate-critical public sector projects, this level of control helps protect accountability from initial approval through to final occupation.

FAQ
Project delivery FAQs
What does project management include?
Project management can include brief development, programme planning, consultant coordination, procurement support, contractor liaison, site progress monitoring, risk management, stakeholder communication, handover and completion support.
When should project delivery support begin?
Project delivery support is most effective when introduced before works start on site. Early involvement helps clarify scope, responsibilities, procurement routes, programme risks and the information needed to move from approval into delivery.
Can AltMarkt manage public sector projects on live sites?
Yes. AltMarkt supports projects across live education, healthcare and public sector estates where works need to be managed around staff, pupils, patients, visitors, access restrictions, safeguarding requirements and operational continuity.
What is the difference between project management and contract administration?
Project management focuses on the practical management, coordination and oversight of the project. Contract administration supports the formal contractual processes, including instructions, payment stages, changes, completion and contract records. Many projects benefit from both services working together.
