Three engineers in protective equipment reviewing a drawing at a substation.

Independent engineers

An owner's engineer joins in the first stage, and reports to the project company and its lenders, not to the contractor.

What the project needs

The project needs an owner's engineer during development and a lenders' engineer for technical due diligence.

A master planner and a cost consultant are among the first partners the project approaches, and an owner's engineer joins in the first stage.

Who it suits

Organisations such as:

  • Owner's engineers
  • Lenders' engineers and technical advisers
  • Technical due diligence firms
  • Certification bodies, including tier certification

How it connects to the campus

EPC contractors is the contractor you oversee.
Project, programme and cost management reconciles cost and schedule.
Master planners and design consultants writes the design you review.
Risk, insurance and resilience asks the same questions lenders do.

What to show

At registration, tell us about up to three comparable assignments, completed or in operation, with the year, location, your role, the scale in the measure that fits your discipline, the status and a way to verify it. Newer specialist firms are welcome to present documented pilots and the founding team's record, clearly labelled.

Lenders' technical adviser engagements, data-centre standards experience, schedule and capital cost reviews, cooling and power bankability, and the reliance capacity insurers and lenders require.
