Project Management

Arbour Property Group provides hands-on, client-side Project Management that keeps your project on track without adding to your internal headcount. We represent the developer’s interests from pre-start through to completion, ensuring delivery stays aligned with cost, programme, and design intent.

We lead design finalisation, manage tenders and award D&C contracts, and maintain on-site presence throughout construction. Our role includes certifying progress claims, controlling variations, tracking programme, and monitoring quality. We stay involved through practical completion and handover, managing defects and ensuring a clean, timely finish.


Whether you need end-to-end delivery support or targeted oversight during critical phases, we bring structure, accountability, and momentum to the construction process

4. Construction Oversight & Progress Monitoring

On-the-ground inspections and tracking to ensure build quality, progress accountability, and early risk identification.

Our construction support is built on-site experience — not spreadsheets. We work directly with builders and consultants to ensure the build stays on track and avoid costly oversights.


Services include:

  • Independent photographic documentation and commentary
  • Variation register tracking and advice
  • Program monitoring – identifying early signs of delay or out-of-sequence work

Ensuring professional, comprehensive close-out of your project.

We assist with final inspections, client-facing presentation of handover packs, and defect rectification tracking so your reputation remains intact through the final stage of delivery.


Services include:

  • Practical completion inspection (builder or client-side)
  • Full photographic reporting with defect log
  • Review and collation of builder handover documentation:
    • Occupation certificates, warranties, manuals, asset schedules
  • Follow-up inspections to confirm defect rectification
  • Coordination of final settlement and builder communications
  • Final handover summary presentation (client or investor-ready)


Engagement Model

Our services are structured as fixed-scope engagements, tied to specific project phases. We can be engaged for a single task — such as preparing a tender pack or conducting a one-off inspection — or for a clearly defined support role over a specific project stage (e.g. construction phase QA + claims monitoring).

  • On-the-ground presence backed by efficient reporting and documentation
  • Deep experience in residential development and construction delivery
  • Clear deliverables with professional formatting and fast turnaround

Typical Projects We Support

  • High-end custom homes — requiring independent quality assurance and builder oversight (for developer and home owner)
