Projects are complex one-off tasks with a clear objective and a pre-defined window of time and financial budget. Project management is shaping the transition from the initial situation to the goal state in such a way that it remains on schedule and within budget. For many projects that aim to promote sustainability, environmental protection or municipal targets, high-level targets have to be achieved with a tight budget.
We help plan realistically and use existing resources in an effective way. Clients have the choice what support we provide. For new and unrefined project ideas, our conceptual advice will help to see a project off to a path for success. We help to establish efficient project teams by supporting the search for experts, team building, the facilitation of the terms of engagement, defining communication flow and approval processes. You can also count on our support when presenting your project to potential donors, media or the public.
If clients want to lead the project personally and have expert advice readily available when needed, we accompany projects as a permanent or temporary consultant. We provide support in the areas of financial and time management, communication, stakeholder engagement and crisis management.
We focus on interdisciplinary and cross-border projects that integrate aspects of nature conservation, biodiversity or sustainable land use when taking full responsibility for project management. With this focus, we ensure that our commitment delivers outstanding results at a reasonable cost.
