Don’t let risk stand in the way of building the future. Embed resilience at every stage.

For ambitious projects, every stage of the project lifecycle presents a broad array of risks – from geopolitical uncertainty to site security. These risks can derail timelines, inflate costs and damage reputations.

This is true whether the project is a major urban development, hyperscale data centre, global real estate portfolio or critical infrastructure project. 

Control Risks can help you embed resilience into every stage of your project’s lifecycle – from pre-project conception to post-completion – ensuring you can anticipate threats, protect value and deliver resilient assets.

We provide integrated, risk and threat-led advisory, design and management consulting – modular when you need precision focus, wide-ranging when you need scale, continuity and end-to-end delivery.

FAQs

Who is this service for?

We help investors, developers, architects, and engineers manage risk across all phases of a built environment and infrastructure project.

When should we involve Control Risks?

As early as possible, ideally before site selection or partner commitments. Building in risk management early can reduce project redesigns, delays and unanticipated costs later in a project.

Do you work alongside architects and programme managers?

Yes. We routinely co-design with Architect and Engineering (A&E) firms, Engineering, Procurement and Construction contractors (EPCs), lead consultants and construction companies.

What is included in your master security planning?

The master security planning provides a framework for integrating safety and security into the design and operation of a development.

Do you provide cyber and online threat risk advice for data centres and critical infrastructure?

Yes. We help companies assess, manage and respond to the digital risks that could impact their project at any stage. Our digital risks strategy is bespoke and comprehensive, covering each project’s people, processes and technology.

Can you operate globally?

Yes. For over 50 years, we have supported clients worldwide, combining global insight with local expertise. Our locally delivered projects are supported by our regional teams and in-country partners.
