AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - Can you share an example of a project where proactive risk management measures, like the ones you mentioned, significantly impacted the project’s financial outcome? How did these measures lead to cost savings or avoided unexpected expenses?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - How do you approach continuous monitoring and updating of the risk register throughout the project lifecycle? How do you ensure that new risks are identified and addressed as the project progresses?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - When advising clients on project finance, how do you strike a balance between taking precautionary measures to mitigate risks and keeping the project budget under control? How do you make decisions that prioritize risk management without unnecessary financial burden?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - How do you collaborate with other stakeholders, such as design teams, contractors, and consultants, to ensure that risk management strategies are effectively integrated into the project’s overall financial planning?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - Have you encountered situations where clients were initially hesitant to invest in risk mitigation measures due to cost concerns? How did you address their concerns and emphasize the long-term financial benefits of these measures?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - Looking ahead, how do you see the role of risk management in project finance evolving? Are there emerging trends or technologies that you believe will enhance the way risks are identified, assessed, and managed to ensure better financial outcomes for construction projects?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - Could you elaborate on how the identification of utilities as a risk impacted the pre-construction stage of the Daleham Gardens project? How did you communicate this risk to the client, and what were the potential consequences if this risk was not addressed proactively?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - How did you determine the appropriate mitigation measures for the utilities-related risk? What factors did you consider when deciding on a desk study and site investigation? How did these measures help reduce the potential impact on the project’s budget and timeline?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - Can you provide insights into the process of managing and allocating the cost of the desk study and site investigation separately from the main construction budget? How did you ensure transparency and accountability in handling these additional costs?
AI SoE: Daleham Gardens - How did the inclusion of the risk assessment and mitigation measures within the tender documentation impact the contractor’s understanding and approach to the project? Did it lead to any changes in their bid or construction plan?
