Once a capital program is approved, delivering it on time and on budget can be difficult due to inefficiencies, staffing gaps, or outdated procedures.
We offer capital improvement program and operating budget review services, comparing them to utility best practices, to help clients address these issues. Because Raftelis does not provide traditional capital project design and construction administration services, we offer an independent, unbiased viewpoint focused on helping you prioritize resources, streamline workflows, and deliver your capital program more efficiently.

Process and procedure improvements
We examine whether you have the necessary program management information, data systems, and schedule management processes in place to execute projects on scope, schedule, and budget. We help you pinpoint gaps and opportunities, such as better cross-communications between Operations and Engineering groups, to execute projects and reduce operating and capital costs more effectively.
Resource and staffing alignment
Ensuring that you have the right staffing resources to meet capital delivery expectations is essential. We analyze your organizational hierarchy to determine if you have the necessary staff to execute the capital program or if training and coaching are required to ramp up capital expenditures. We can provide the necessary staff and skillsets to help your utility or local government quickly and efficiently implement recommendations.
Independent third-party review
We provide independent third-party reviewers with technical expertise in finance, engineering, and operations. Unlike firms pursuing design work, our reviewers are motivated to save you money and improve efficiencies. We identify potential technology and process tool improvements to reduce costs, streamline project scheduling and tracking, and increase performance efficiencies.

Rather than writing a report with recommendations and leaving your organization to find the time to implement them, our process involves working side-by-side with your staff. We help you "build the plane while flying it" by implementing changes in a logical, stepwise manner that staff will embrace.
