Project Management by Terry. Quality Management by Andrew.

Who we are

Experience translated into usable guidance.

Terry Parsons leads our Project Management knowledge. Andrew Yuen leads our Quality Management knowledge. Each discipline has its own focus, and both connect across the project lifecycle.

The guidance here is grounded in more than 50 years of combined engineering experience across Solar PV, BESS, HV infrastructure, power generation, oil and gas, water and utilities.

Knowledge areas

Two specialist disciplines. One connected lifecycle.

Explore practical principles, controls and lessons drawn from the demands of live energy projects—not theory detached from delivery.

01 · Terry Parsons

Project Management

  • End-to-end delivery from feasibility to handover
  • Programme development and critical path management
  • Contractor coordination and interface management
  • DNO, ICP and regulatory stakeholder engagement
  • Commercial awareness and change control support
03 · Integrated delivery

Where the disciplines meet

  • Pre-construction planning and design review
  • Construction controls and inspection evidence
  • Commissioning and energisation readiness
  • Handover dossiers and record completion
  • Lessons learned and project closeout

Practitioner experience

Grounded in complex, high-risk delivery.

Our guidance is informed by recent BESS work combining project oversight, contractor coordination, quality control, commissioning and robust handover documentation.

30MW Full lifecycle BESS involvement
50MW Quality, interfaces and handover

Cross-sector capability

  • Solar PV developments
  • Battery energy storage
  • HV substations and electrical infrastructure
  • Oil and gas installations
  • Power generation facilities
  • Water and utilities projects

This breadth brings proven practice in safety, quality assurance, programme control and risk management to every engagement.

Grid connection expertise

Confident stakeholder engagement.

We have established experience working with Distribution Network Operators across the UK, helping projects move smoothly through critical connection milestones.

  • Grid connection coordination
  • Technical compliance and approvals
  • Outage planning and energisation
  • ICP, IDNO and principal contractor interfaces

Project lifecycle

How project and quality controls connect.

Each phase needs clear ownership, programme control and quality evidence. These guides show how the two disciplines work together from definition to final closeout.

  1. 01

    Phase one

    Pre-construction

    Scope and design review, risk planning, programme development and quality planning.

  2. 02

    Phase two

    Construction

    Site management, contractor performance, ITP controls and coordinated HSE oversight.

  3. 03

    Phase three

    Commissioning & energisation

    Plan review, DNO/OEM interfaces, execution oversight and verification of test results.

  4. 04

    Phase four

    Handover & closeout

    Handover dossiers, record completion, defect control and lessons learned.

Quality Management in practice

Right first time—and able to prove it.

Our approach aligns with ISO 9001 principles and embeds quality throughout delivery—not as a final inspection exercise.

  • Defined hold and witness points
  • Traceability of materials, installation and testing
  • Structured document control and handover
  • Proactive non-conformance identification and resolution
