Project controls

On major, publicly funded projects, cost control and schedule performance are under constant scrutiny. Executives, PMOs, and funding agencies require more than reports — they need reliable, transparent data that supports informed decisions, drives performance, and withstands independent oversight. 

At Cost Time Risk, we deliver expert project controls services that integrate cost, schedule, and risk into a coherent, disciplined framework — ensuring that project leadership has timely, accurate information to manage delivery and maintain governance confidence.
