INFRASTRUCTURE …. from Concept to delivery
Ogilvy, Gillanders & Co. Limited
Typically we work with industrial developers, public bodies, financial investors and others from the outset of a project to build from a solid foundation. And being active across the infrastructure spectrum, Ogilvy, Gillanders also serves client interests at specified project stages in a range of ways from identifying steps for improving construction productivity to introducing practical measures to mitigate cost overruns or producing fact-based progress reports for deciding what needs to be done and in what order.
From an overall perspective, members of our infrastructure team find there are three broadly defined areas of particular significance that regularly arise where top decision-makers seek professional experience and know-how in their infrastructure planning.
Early Stage Development
Investment at this stage is critical for optimising project delivery and vital for attracting suitable forms of project funding. A development stage programme integrates the systematic evaluation of economic and technical sustainability with the analysis of risk profile and structuring of sponsor or financial investor funding.

Sources and Availability of Finance
Funding availability varies with changes in external factors and in funding providers’ strategies as well as their approaches to particular infrastructure sectors, to preferred risk/return profiles, to maturity horizons and in terms of their existing commitments. In a dynamic environment it is essential to have up-to-date information on fund flows from prospective fund providers together with the criteria being applied for the financing of specific projects.

Capital Recycling for Important Projects
Finance for a new project or the renewal of existing ones can be obtained by selling or partnering an existing infrastructure asset. The overall objectives of an asset owner can be multi-dimensional ranging from maximising proceeds, obtaining advantageous transaction terms to minimising ongoing expenditure.
