Construction Risk Management Services | Minimize Risk, Maximize Project Success
Welcome to the World of Construction Risk Management
What is Risk Management in Construction?
Construction risk management deals with the strategic planning of the development as it pertains to projecting, documenting, and evaluating the possibilities of the issues that could affect the time, cost, safety, and quality of the project. It enables proper planning and decision-making throughout the project cycle.
The Importance of Construction Risk Management in the Success of the Project
Uncertainties accompany every construction endeavor. Badly planned risks may lead to overspending, significant delays, or complete failure of the project. By strategically addressing risks as early as possible, we assist clients in averting unwanted disruption and maintain control over their desired project outcome
Construction Risk Factors: Cost, Time, Quality, and
The fulfilment of construction projects is usually threatened by the following risks as managed by our team:
- Cost Risks: Expenditure increases, inflation, cost estimation inaccuracies.
- Time Risks: Poor scheduling, typical labor shortages, employment strikes, and mild weather conditions.
- Quality Risks: Defective work or design and substandard materials.
- Safety Risks: Accidents on-site or failure to comply with safety requirements
Other Types of Construction Risks Identified and Managed by U Novus Ltd.
Cost Risks
Uncontrolled spending and unexpected costs increase as we perform in-depth budgeting and market price analysis accompanied by thorough contingency planning during predictable expenses.
Schedule Risks:
Small as well as major disruptions like weather related issues or material delay are identified and prepared alongside advanced scheduling. Our experts use specific tools for the management of delay related risks.
Competitor Contractual Risks
Unsupported legal claims arising from project execution are managed as we review contracts for disputes and ambiguities ensuring clarity of every legal term.
Safety Risks
Risk of worker injuries as a result of contractual obligations and unsafe work procedures is entirely avoidable invoking indisputable enforcement of safety measures alongside industry standards.
Design & Technical Risks
We assess design frameworks for their technical feasibility and develop plans to contain scope alterations along with unanticipated site problems such as poor soil conditions or buried utilities.
Stakeholder Risks
These risks relate to lack of effective communication and cohesive alignment amongst stakeholders which leads to misunderstanding as well as conflicts and expectations which can result in delays.
Our Construction Projects Risk Management Procedure.
Risk Identification
We undertake site inspections, stakeholder discussions, and document analysis to capture specific risks to a project in advance.
Risk Assessment and Prioritization
Using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, we assess every risk’s probability together with its impact on the project. Risks deemed to pose the highest impact to the project's security are dealt with first in order to maximize vulnerability reduction.
Risk Mitigation Planning and Strategies
As far as possible, we shall formulate key risk mitigation provisions including alterative strategic options, resource reallocation, or contractual arrangements such as novation and mitigation, delegation, or withdrawal.
Implementation and Monitoring
A risk register is created and maintained for the entire duration of the project to track all risks and ensure they are monitored and controlled throughout the lifecycle of the project.
Tools and Methodologies We Use
1. Qualitative and Quantitative Risk Analysis
We utilize methodologies that evaluate the level and consequences of risks to aid in the decision-making process our clients undertake.
2. Monte Carlo Simulation & Contingency Planning
Expenditure and scheduling results can be estimated through advanced modeling techniques like Monte Carlo simulations.
3. FIDIC and NEC Risk Management Frameworks
With the use of globally accepted standards such as FIDIC and NEC, we ensure that any contractual risk is dealt with professionally.
Health, Safety and Environmental Standards (HSE)
We prioritize safety by employing Health Safety Environment (HSE) regulations in the construction site ensuring compliance and safety.

Case Studies & Real-World Results
Example 1: Early Risk Identification Saves $1.2M
By preventing a dispute due to contract ambiguity checking during pre-construction review, we saved hundreds of millions from disputes.
Example 2: Design Risk Analysis Helps Avoid 6-Month Delay
Reviewing some of the geotechnical designs of the foundations helped us identify some of the gaps that needed to be asynchronously designed early on and executed on time.
