Our Process

How We Engage

A structured advisory process calibrated to the timeline of project finance transactions.

Initial Briefing

We review the IM, concession structure, and lender requirements to scope the mandate precisely.

Technical Due Diligence

Site visits, document review, sponsor and contractor interviews. Independent technical assessment.

Report & Financial Close

Technical report delivered to the lender's credit team. We attend credit committee and manage conditions precedent.

Ongoing Monitoring

Monthly site visits, drawdown certification, and regular reporting throughout construction.

"A lender's technical advisor must be able to read a structural drawing and a financial model with equal fluency — and translate between the two."
