Services

Certainty across the whole program

Large programs rarely fail on engineering. They fail on the system around it: teams that can’t scale, controls that lag reality, and approvals that stall. We cover all three.

Where we work across a program

From the first site visit to steady-state operations, our three practices cover the stages where programs most often stall.

Program stages: site and approvals, financing and incentives, design and supply chain, construction, and operations.

Deliver the program

We stand up and run the delivery organization for major projects, from the first PMO to closeout. Our team has built project controls from scratch for billion-dollar construction operations and re-baselined programs in trouble.

Organizational scaling and change management

Org design, hiring plans and change programs for teams growing faster than their processes.

PMO support and capacity building

Stand up or strengthen a program management office sized to the portfolio, with the governance, cadence and reporting to match.

Project controls and scheduling

Cost, schedule and risk controls, including critical path management in Primavera P6.

Construction and PPP advisory

Owner-side guidance on delivery models, contracting and public-private partnerships, drawn from MILCON and P3 experience.

Supply chain

Sourcing strategy, procurement and supplier management for long-lead equipment and major contracts.

See the program

We build AI tools and automated dashboards that your team keeps, so leaders see cost, schedule and risk as it happens rather than at the next monthly review.

AI tools and automated dashboards

Custom tools and self-updating portfolio dashboards built on your own data, so reporting stops being a manual job.

Data analytics and forecasting

Modeling, forecasting and stress testing for capital, energy and workforce decisions.

Forensic audits

Independent reviews of cost, schedule and contract performance that show where money and time went, and how to recover them.

AI scheduling and risk, with Foresight Works

As Foresight Works’ official consulting partner, we embed its predictive schedule and risk analysis into day-to-day execution.

Secure the license to build

We help projects secure the capital, approvals and public support they need, wherever they’re built. Our team has led statewide economic development and understands how states and counties decide.

Economic and fiscal impact analysis

Credible, independent analysis of jobs, tax revenue, public costs and regional benefit.

Development finance and due diligence

Feasibility, capital stack and bankability reviews that prepare projects for investors and lenders.

Strategy and engagement with state agencies, counties and elected officials.

Public relations and community engagement

Messaging and outreach that build local support before opposition forms.

How we work with clients

Engagements are shaped around the program, not a standard package. Most start in one of four ways.

Embedded delivery team

Alpen consultants join your program as the PMO or controls function, for the life of the project or a defined phase.

Fractional leadership

An experienced executive, such as a head of development or delivery, part time, while you build the permanent team.

Tool build and handover

A fixed-scope build of dashboards or AI tools, delivered with training so your team runs them.

Advisory and analysis

Focused work on a decision: an economic impact study, a delivery model choice, a recovery plan.
