Project controls has been a core competency since inception of Pangea back in 2014. We have successfully established ourselves as one of the agile and fast-growing firms in Southern Africa to deliver planning, schedule control, delay and disruption analysis, BIM services and field construction monitoring in the industry.

With recent developments in our IT and digitalization domain, we have expanded our services to include the greater domain of project controls including cost estimating and control, quantity surveying, document management and control as well as project data analysis and management.

Project controls comes through the ability to tie all these elements together into one structured / integrated view of the project. The un-integrated approach may provide adequate business control in each area but does not offer strong overall project controls.

At Pangea, the integrated project controls offer great benefits for the owners, management consultants and contractors of capital projects and bring together the key elements of planning and controlling a project:

• Planning: Includes estimate (pricing) data that creates the basis of the estimate and the schedule, which creates the sequencing and timing of activities and should be considered the control base once all parties agree.
• Controlling: Includes updating and forecasting of the schedule, along with risk management, change management, physical progressing, and estimate (quantities, hours and cost), progress reporting and tracking of actual cost and commitment values; identifying gaps and providing solutions as to how to close the gaps and minimize deviations between that of panned and the actual.

Project complexity, organizational maturity, team experience, budget, and other factors determine the level of project controls needs. Excessive control can cause project costs to spiral upward and divert resources from more important tasks. Lax control can also lead to delays, errors, political repercussions, and diminished project quality.

At Pangea, we provide the project controls tools and techniques to proactively control costs, schedules, and scope of work to reach the desired outcome.
