What Our Clients Say 

Multi-Disciplinary Steering Group 

With the widespread use of NEC cost-based and alliance contracts, cost assurance & cost verification has become a necessary step to provide the transparency and assurance required by employers, clients and project managers. The steering group has prepared several key outputs from groups of like-minded professionals who have examined various key aspects in detail. 

Jim McCluskey, Keir Group Commercial Manager

ESG Finance Services 

CFBL delivered cost assurance training including on risks and emerging costs like carbon to our commercial, finance and project teams. The elements most valuable were setting out the process and protocols for audit, and having clarity on the responsibility of each party in the supply chain for cost assurance on infrastructure projects. We also found the elements on disallowed costs to be very valuable. 

Ryan Phillip, Balfour Beatty Commercial Manager

SME Fintech & Strategy Services 

CFBL has provided Pacific Marketing with lots of really insightful and helpful financial advice. This included where to obtain grant funding and finance, how to credit check potential customers, and always first taking the time to first understand our questions and requirements. 

Justin Shardlow, Managing Direct Pacific Marketing

Infrastructure Project Services

After the successful completion of a 3-year Crossrail audit programme, CFBL led supply chain consultations with contractor, consultant and auditor workstreams, delivering cost assurance protocols from CP4 and CP5 lessons for our 5-year strategic plans and CP6 control period. They would be an asset to any company to whom they are engaged and we would never hesitate to call upon their expertise. ”

All businesses need sustainable business strategies supported by technology and digital to accomplish financial goals, transform and compete successfully. This includes AI, data analytics, cloud computing or the Internet of Things (IoT). CFBL is committed to robustly managing risk and maximising business benefits.

With increased cost, complexity and risk on rail infrastructure assets, projects and construction contracts, the need for a cost assurance strategy is vital to optimising costs, sustainable value, and investment return. 

Water & Highways

The importance of water infrastructure in supplying clean water to millions of homes and is businesses is existential. While highway and road infrastructure are key in transporting goods, passengers and accessibility to essential and ancillary services.
