The Reality

Most Construction Problems Start Before Site

Commercial exposure rarely begins on site

Cost overruns and programme disruption are born from assumptions accepted without digital challenge. Under time pressure, early decisions often prioritise speed over financial resilience. Once embedded into the cost plan, these invisible gaps shape your final margin and project delivery outcomes.

Do you have clarity before exposure escalates into measurable financial impact?

Reltic provides the 4D & 5D Intelligence needed to ensure that cost, scope, and delivery assumptions are rigorously tested. Our structured early-stage reviews provide visibility over hidden risks, strengthening decision confidence before construction formally commences.

Optimistic sequencing assumptions

Interfaces may appear logical in 2D, but overlook complex phasing constraints. We use 4D simulation to reveal delivery pressures that translate into measurable, late-stage cost exposure.

Unclear and fragmented scope boundaries

Package responsibilities often seem defined, yet practical grey areas create change exposure. We reconcile these gaps through digital audits to prevent downstream variation and margin erosion.

Quantities derived from static information

Early cost positions rely on 2D data that ignores buildability failure risks. Our Shadow Models provide a 5D evidence base, ensuring your budget reflects actual coordination and site realities.

Programmes that look credible but are fragile

Schedules often function in isolation but lack resilience. Without 4D stress-testing, they quickly destabilise under commercial risk. We secure your timeline by validating every link against data-driven logic.

Independent Commercial Advisory

Reltic operates as an elite advisory practice, combining Quantity Surveying discipline with MBA-level strategic insight. We challenge cost and scope assumptions through integrated 4D & 5D validation, ensuring that both programme logic and financial projections are stress-tested before exposure is embedded into live delivery.

Our role is not production estimating. We provide structured commercial governance and technical assurance, acting as a digital bridge that transforms fragmented 2D data into 4D/5D Commercial Intelligence. This provides the data-driven certainty and risk mitigation required by institutional investors for high-stakes projects.

Typical Project Context

Discovery More All Industries

Technical Depth. Commercial Purpose.

Commercial exposure is ultimately shaped by contract structure. Our role is to protect margin position and capital stability within the realities of UK contract mechanisms.
We align cost, programme, and change decisions with contractual entitlement to prevent avoidable exposure during delivery. By integrating 4D & 5D Intelligence with Digital Cost Governance, we ensure that every site instruction is validated against the defined scope of JCT and NEC frameworks. This disciplined approach provides the Variation Defence required to maintain capital discipline and secure long-term project viability.

BIM Decision Support

We apply digital intelligence only where it strengthens certainty. By defining decisions before tools, we ensure that 4D & 5D Intelligence serves capital discipline. We focus on results, never allowing software to dictate your commercial risk.

Shadow Model Audit

We construct independent models from 2D data to verify reality. This targeted audit identifies hidden scope gaps before they impact the budget. Our Buildability Reviews bridge the gap where design lacks the depth required for cost uncertainty control.

Capital Protection

Our framework aligns digital evidence with JCT and NEC mechanisms. We use data to strengthen your Variation Defence and protect margins. We act as a strategic Employer’s Agent, ensuring every site action is grounded in professional commercial logic.

Decision Support

Digital Intelligence. Sharper Judgement.

Using digital intelligence to validate reality.

We do not provide full BIM delivery. We apply BIM selectively within our decision support framework as a commercial analysis tool, only where it strengthens cost clarity, sequencing confidence, and informed decision-making.

By constructing independent Shadow Models, we bridge the gap between fragmented 2D data and the commercial certainty required by institutional investors. This allows us to stress-test your project’s financial DNA without assuming design liability or requiring a full production scope.

Discuss a Commercial Review

Model-based review may be used to:

01. Quantity and scope credibility

We validate quantity logic and scope definition against available design information, highlighting gaps, overlap and interface exposure that can undermine commercial certainty.

02. Sequencing logic and delivery constraints

We test sequencing assumptions and delivery constraints to identify buildability friction, access limitations and trade interfaces that can destabilise programme logic.

03. Cost and programme sensitivity

We assess where cost and programme assumptions are most sensitive to design maturity, logistics and phasing, focusing on the points most likely to trigger cost movement.

04. Entitlement and negotiation support

We support a structured entitlement position by clarifying scope boundaries and assumptions, strengthening negotiation strategy with clear analytical rationale.

05. How we develop the model

Where appropriate, focused analytical models are developed from available project information to stress test buildability and sequencing exposure, without design liability and without a full BIM production scope.

How we work

A Typical Reltic Engagement

Prioritising intelligence before capital commitment.

Most projects do not fail because a BIM model is missing; they fail when cost, scope, and programme assumptions are accepted without structured commercial interrogation. At Reltic, we apply digital analysis selectively to strengthen cost clarity and delivery control where it matters most.

01.Commercial Review

We begin with a structured review of scope, budget and programme to establish visibility of exposure. This framework secures your position before procurement decisions are formally locked. This typically includes a review of cost structure and exposure, an assessment of programme resilience, and a review of contract and risk position.

02.Risk Testing

We challenge cost plans and sequencing logic via 4D/5D simulation to ensure projected budgets remain resilient. Our digital audits identify coordination gaps before they can convert into variation and margin erosion. This typically includes validation of quantities and scope clarity, identification of gaps and exposure risk, and assessment of sequencing and logic risk.

03.Delivery Review

We undertake targeted buildability and sequencing analysis to assess how site realities influence cost stability. This stage mitigates execution pressure before it impacts cashflow and the final account position. This typically includes a review of buildability and site logic, identification of coordination exposure, and an assessment of execution pressure risk.

04.Next Actions

We conclude with structured commercial recommendations aligned to capital discipline. Our experts define clear decision pathways required to reduce exposure to programme drift and a weakening contractual position. This typically includes capital discipline and risk guidance, change and entitlement direction, and alignment of commercial strategy.
