About Us

FESP Overview

Our Approach

The FESP approach is based on “no- nonsense and straight talking”. We define our clients’ needs, manage the process and the risks and deliver on our commitments. The FESP philosophy is that if you are not in control of the money, then you are not in control of the project. We manage the process to affect the outcome.

FESP Service Provisions can cover specific project elements and assignments or can encompass the entire project process. Our focus at all times is based on ensuring the project is delivered:

  • Safely
  • On time
  • Within budget
  • To specification

Our clients’ risk is managed / mitigated to ensure value for money is achieved.

The key executives in the company have developed a respected knowledge and capability within the industry, and have built relationships based on honesty, integrity and a passion to deliver as committed.
