IPC Project Assessment

Before You Spend More, Find Out Where You Can Spend Less.

Put 20+ Years of OSB, MDF & Particleboard Project Experience to Work on Your CAPEX Project.

Whether you are still defining the project or already executing it, we help identify where money can be saved and the best path forward.

Find the savings. Define the right path. Make better project decisions.

01

What We Assess

We review your CAPEX project through our proven Industrial Project Execution Framework, developed from 20+ years of delivering complex OSB, MDF and Particleboard projects. We challenge the decisions, assumptions and execution strategies behind your project to identify potential savings, execution risks and a better path forward.

02

Project & Technical Definition

Is the project defined well enough to price and execute?

We review scope maturity, technical requirements, quantities, interfaces and assumptions, and compare them with experience from actual industrial projects.

03

Procurement

Are you buying the right solution at the right price?

We assess procurement strategy, supplier selection, market pricing, bid packages, commercial comparisons and long-lead decisions, and help identify the right suppliers and contractors.

04

Engineering Design

Is engineering supporting execution, or creating unnecessary cost?

We review design maturity, constructability, interfaces, specifications and design decisions from the perspective of successful project delivery.

05

Construction

Is the site prepared for efficient execution?

We assess construction strategy, logistics, contractor scopes, sequencing, temporary facilities, interfaces and site readiness to identify avoidable cost and disruption.

06

Installation M&E+

Can the work be installed safely and efficiently?

We review installation strategy, contractor scopes, work fronts, material flow, productivity, sequencing and mechanical/electrical interfaces.

07

Commissioning

Is the project being prepared to start successfully?

We assess commissioning strategy, system readiness, turnover sequencing and progressive activation, from individual systems through integrated operation and production.

08

Handover

Is the investment ready to become an operating asset?

We review completion, documentation, training, outstanding work, performance requirements and operational readiness to support a controlled transition into production.

Across every stage: leadership and execution control

We also assess the fundamentals that hold the entire project together: leadership, responsibilities, decision-making, communication, priorities, information control, coordination and escalation.

The result isn’t just a score. We identify what can be improved, where CAPEX may be saved, and practical actions for moving the project forward.

02

It Works at Every Stage. It Pays Most at the Start.

The earlier we review your project, the more opportunity there is to influence CAPEX. At concept and FEED stage, major decisions about scope, technology, design criteria, procurement and execution strategy can still be challenged, before they become committed cost. Already tendering, constructing or installing? The opportunity changes, but it does not disappear. We focus on the decisions that can still be influenced and identify practical strategies to reduce cost, control risk and improve delivery.

Idea & budget

Challenge the investment before defining the solution.

Project concept, CAPEX assumptions, technology choices, site conditions and fundamental design criteria.

FEED & definition

Get the project right before going to market.

Scope definition, design criteria, quantities, constructability, execution strategy, cost assumptions and project readiness.

Tender & award

Buy the right solution and structure it for successful delivery.

Packaging strategy, scopes of work, market pricing, supplier and contractor selection, interfaces, responsibilities and contract strategy.

Execution & site

Protect the investment already committed.

Engineering, construction and installation strategy, contractor performance, claims, interfaces, site organization, sequencing, productivity and commissioning readiness.

The best time to find a saving is before the money is committed. The second-best time is now.

CAPEX improved on a €20M greenfield project
≈35% reduction in planned project investment
“IPC became involved during Concept & FEED phase and challenged the project’s Fundamental Design Criteria. By redefining key project requirements before they were locked into engineering and procurement, the project identified approximately €7 million in avoidable CAPEX.”

Let’s Talk About Your Project

Book a Free 30-Minute Project Assessment Call

Tell us where your project stands and what you are trying to achieve.

Whether you have an idea and a budget, are preparing to tender, or are already in construction, we will use the first 30 minutes to understand your project and discuss where our experience could add value.

If you already have a project brief, scope, schedule or budget, you are welcome to send it beforehand. You do not need anything prepared to start the conversation.

What does the initial call cost?

Nothing. The 30-minute introductory call is free.

If we believe a Project Assessment could add value, we will define the scope with you and provide a clear proposal before any work begins.

Is my project information confidential?

Yes. Your project information remains confidential. We can also put an NDA in place before reviewing project documentation if required.

Who will I speak with?

An experienced IPC project professional, not a salesperson.

You will speak with someone who understands OSB, MDF and Particleboard projects and has practical experience in industrial project delivery.

Not sure whether your project is ready for an assessment?

Book the call anyway. From early concept through construction and commissioning, we will quickly determine where an independent review could add value.
