Congratulations on the award. This page does one simple thing: it lets you cost, line by line, what remote delivery on the Garden Route actually takes — flights, nights away, a PM's lost days, office overhead, and the margin that leaks when local subcontractors run unsupervised. Then it puts that number next to ours.
Flights to George, car hire, accommodation, and two to three of your PM's most productive days lost in transit — every single visit, for the life of the contract.
Setting up even a small local presence means rental, fit-out, connectivity and a body in the chair — fixed costs that outlive the contract that justified them.
Unmanaged local subs mean rework, missed municipal sign-offs, idle plant and slipped milestones. Even 2% of monthly contract value leaks more than most firms notice — until close-out.
Adjust the figures to match your own numbers — everything recalculates live. Defaults are conservative, based on typical JHB/CPT-to-George delivery patterns.
One local, senior point of accountability in George — scaled to how much of the delivery burden you want off your desk. Three months to prove it, then we commit for the life of your tender.
Structured so the risk sits with us first, and the commitment grows as the trust does.
The first three months are a probation period. We prove the value on the ground before you commit to anything longer.
Once probation is passed, the retainer runs for a minimum of one year — a stable local team, a locked reporting rhythm, no re-onboarding.
After year one, the agreement extends for the full duration of the tender, reviewed annually against the agreed KPIs — through to close-out, retention and final account.
The retainer adjusts by a minimum of 12% per year from the start of year two — benchmarked against CPI plus the growth in scope that a maturing contract brings, and agreed in writing before each anniversary.
KPIs are agreed jointly at handover and aligned to the KPIs the municipality has set for your contract — one scoreboard for you, us, and the client. MP Project Management is measured on delivered outputs, not timesheets. Shared value, shared accountability.
Two to three calls with the PM or company representative who owns this project: contract scope, programme, subcontractor list, known risks.
Site visit, municipal contact mapping, subcontractor readiness check. You get a written baseline.
Agreed reporting cadence begins. Your team travels only when it genuinely adds value.
Probation review against the agreed KPIs — right-size the tier, then the 12-month retainer takes effect.
A 20-minute call is enough to confirm the fit and firm up the worksheet with your real figures.
