Before
Capex underwritten before capital commits
Scope, budget range and programme are set at feasibility, as a low, base and high range with stated assumptions.
Institutional project management for hospitals, hotels and campuses.
Delivery risk, underwritten by the desk that structured the capital.
AIS manages the build, fit-out and repositioning of institutional assets on behalf of owners and capital partners. We sit on the owner’s side of the table: independent of contractors, accountable to whoever is funding the project.
In short
AIS provides institutional project management consultancy (PMC) for hospitals, hotels, campuses, and commercial and industrial assets. It is owner-side: capex is underwritten before capital commits and progress is verified before tranches release.
Capital loses money on delivery as often as on price.
Capex overruns, entitlement slippage and unverified progress claims sit outside most investment memos. AIS prices them up front and monitors them through the build, using the same discipline it applies to scoring a deal.
During
Owner-side, not contractor-side
Procurement, BOQ review and contractor evaluation run on behalf of the owner or the capital funding the project.
