Project Controls & Governance
Cost, schedule, risk and change frameworks — modelled on Nestlé, AB-InBev and Tiger Brands governance — that keep CAPEX predictable from FID to handover.
OTIF Capital & Industrial Partners brings two decades of owner-side CAPEX discipline — earned inside Nestlé, AB-InBev, Tiger Brands, Unilever and RCL Foods — to Africa's most complex industrial builds. From FEL through start-up, we protect schedule, cost and safety so your capital performs.
Services
We embed with owners and operators to plan, control and deliver capital projects with predictable outcomes.
Cost, schedule, risk and change frameworks — modelled on Nestlé, AB-InBev and Tiger Brands governance — that keep CAPEX predictable from FID to handover.
Rigorous FEL 1–3 assessments, scope definition and stage-gate reviews aligned with IPA, AACE and multinational owner-operator gate models.
Owner's representative through construction, tie-ins, pre-commissioning, SAT/PAT and performance testing — with minimal production disruption.
Stand up high-performing PMOs, or intervene on projects in distress with recovery plans grounded in 20 years of blue-chip CAPEX delivery.
1-Year and 3-Year CAPEX planning, portfolio prioritisation, business-case reviews and benefits realisation for boards and ManCom.
Structured value-engineering workshops and total-cost-of-ownership studies that unlock CAPEX savings, optimise operating cost and extend asset life without sacrificing safety or performance.
Independent assurance on contractor performance, HSE systems and OHS Act compliance across the project lifecycle.
Replace manual site-to-exco reporting with an automated spine: process audits, self-building progress, cost and stage-gate dashboards, and mobile site workflows for instructions, QA/QC, punch lists and commissioning — every action audit-trailed.
Digital delivery in detail
We digitise the delivery workflow itself — not to add another platform, but to remove the re-typing, the reconciliation and the four-week lag between what is true on site and what the exco pack says.
We map every manual handoff from site to exco — the spreadsheets, WhatsApp updates, scanned sign-offs and re-typed progress claims — then quantify the reporting lag and error risk each one introduces, and propose the automated workflow that replaces it along with the hours, rework and float it gives back.
Progress, cost and stage-gate dashboards that build themselves from the source systems instead of being assembled by hand. Weekly earned-value and variance alerts replace the monthly pack, so drift surfaces while it is still correctable rather than at the next steering committee.
Mobile contractor management in the field: site instructions, QA/QC sign-off, punch lists and commissioning protocols captured once, on the device, with a time-stamped audit trail that stands up in claims, handover and assurance reviews.
Our Approach
OTIF — On Time, In Full — is our operating discipline. We codify it in every engagement through seven repeatable stages that scale from a single asset to a multi-billion-dollar portfolio.
Independent baseline of scope, schedule, cost and organizational readiness.
Fit-for-purpose PMO, controls and governance calibrated to project complexity.
Embedded execution support with weekly cadence, integrated risk and change.
Value engineering and life-cycle cost studies applied before spend is locked in.
Independent stage-gate reviews, cost/schedule assurance and commissioning readiness checks.
Systems, benefits realization and lessons learned captured for the next project.
Post-completion benefits tracking and capability transfer so your team owns the discipline.
