What we do

Four ways we work, at every stage of an asset

Before investing

Strategy & feasibility

Strategic Decision Advisory™

Feasibility studies, business plans and the best use of land, before you buy, build or reposition a hotel, resort, club or residential scheme.

Before building

Design & build

Operational Design & Development Advisory™

Plans, guest and staff flows and the Clubhouse brief, reviewed before construction by people who have run hotels and clubs.

During operation

Asset management

Owner-Side Asset Management™

Budgets, the CAPEX plan, clear owner reporting and the relationship with the operator, for assets run by an operator or a management team.

In direct management

Direct & interim management

Owner-Minded Management™

Interim management, pre‑opening and recovery of clubs, resorts and hotels, when an asset needs someone in charge.

The first step

Start with one defined piece of work

Most engagements begin with one defined piece of work, with its scope and fee agreed in advance. The deliverable is an Owner Decision Report, written for the owner, the board or the investment committee that has to act on it.
