Consult

Challenging convention. Dreaming bigger. Creating a more sustainable future.

We are project and programme delivery consultants. Redefining the boundaries of our clients’ ambitions. It’s what we do.

Consultancy has been part of Mace’s DNA for more than a quarter of a century. In fact, it’s where the business started. Consult was established in 1990 on the premise that there was a better way to deliver for our clients. Our approach draws on decades of hands-on experience in successfully delivering outcomes-focused projects across the public and private sector.

Unlocking the potential in every project. Every place. Every person.

Today Consult operates across five global hubs, in sectors ranging from large-scale regeneration and infrastructure, to healthcare, corporate real estate, housing and luxury hospitality. With a worldwide reach spanning the UK and Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and Sub-Saharan Africa, our ability to mobilise our teams is second to none.

Through innovation and sustainable ways of working, our experts are here with practical delivery expertise to create places that matter and inspire the people that use them. 

We are driven by global best practice and the flow of local knowledge across our hubs.

Our Consultancy portfolio spans three core divisions: property and corporate real estate, infrastructure, and international markets. We leverage the latest innovation, regional expertise and global best practice to continuously improve and advance infrastructure delivery, advising on critical public services and works of cultural importance; driving growth in developing countries and delivering some of the world's most technically complex and inspiring programmes of work.

How do we do it? As agile partners with diversity and inclusivity at the core, we tap into the best expertise from our pool of talent and integrate seamlessly with our clients to understand their individual challenges. We bring new ideas and fresh thinking to our model which is grounded on transparency, innovation and best practice from around the world. We deliver on time and on budget, to the highest standard.

From iconic work such as the landmark Lima 2019 Pan American and Parapan Games venues alongside the Department of International Trade, to Expo 2020 Dubai, major defence programmes including DE&S and DIO, the Northern Estates Programme and Tiffany & Co.’s flagship store in NYC, we hit the ground running with practical solutions that deliver an outstanding service to our clients. 

Dynamic partners. Creative thinkers. Problem-solvers

As a world-leading construction consultancy, we recognise that what sets us apart is that we truly are outcomes-focused. Our people are at the heart of our business, solving problems for clients in new ways – whether it’s working faster, smarter, or more sustainably.

Consult’s core services range from programme and project delivery management to net-zero carbon solutions, design, digital and data services, cost consultancy, strategic advisory, PMO and beyond. 

Our offering has developed alongside our clients’ needs and often on the back of a specific request for us to introduce new services or enter new markets. We are continuously evolving. And, because we’re independent and owner-operated, our people have the freedom to question convention and explore alternative approaches.

Through the breadth of Consult’s work and the wider group know-how, in development, construction and operations, we go further and deliver distinctive value through the entire asset lifecycle.

Above all, it’s our relentless commitment to leaving a legacy for generations to come that has seen us deliver some of the world’s most inspiring and exciting projects and programmes.

This depth and diversity of our work – and the talented people behind it - drives real progress for our clients and the industry as a whole.
