Better plans
Helping you start well, plan clearly and bring every good idea to the table.
Our planning work is practical, credible and built for live delivery environments. We focus on building programmes that teams can use — to price work properly, communicate clearly and make decisions together. We pay as much attention to how a plan is developed and owned as we do to what it says.
-
Helping pre-construction and bid teams create tender programmes that support realistic pricing, resource planning and credible delivery narratives.
We also develop clear visual and 3D representations of programmes and write key sections of tenders — such as methodology or delivery approach — so the plan, the story and the behaviours behind them are properly aligned.
-
Facilitating sessions that bring the whole team together — clients, designers, contractors and key suppliers — to surface ideas, test assumptions and build shared ownership of the plan, whether at the outset or when projects start to lose their way.
-
Experienced planners embedded within your project or framework team, with sector expertise and the clearance required to work in sensitive environments.
We focus on building robust schedules, managing dependencies and embedding requirements such as BSR into day-to-day planning.
-
Reviewing current planning systems and upskilling your planning team to improve consistency, accuracy and collaboration across the project lifecycle.
We work to clear, practical Milestone standards that focus on usable programmes, shared understanding and plans that genuinely support delivery.
Example in action
On a joint-venture defence project, Milestone ran collaborative planning sessions that brought all contractors and designers together around one credible delivery plan. Within weeks, confidence, pricing accuracy and alignment across partners improved dramatically.
