Project Based Management Structure – TGA Core Team

On every Framework Commission, irrespective of size, TGA Consulting Engineers establish a “Core Team”.

This Team is comprised of:

A Project Partner who is ultimately responsible for the project and for liaison with principals within the Client’s organisation and those of our fellow design team members.

A Project Associate who is responsible for the management of the project within the office. The Project Associate will ensure that the project is adequately resourced to meet the agreed programme and will implement the Practice's Quality Management System by signing off project deliverables such as drawings, specifications and calculations and by chairing frequent project review meetings.

Two Lead Project Engineers, usually one mechanical and one electrical, though we sometimes add a third to cover ICT issues on projects with significant computer data / telephony systems. The Project Engineers are experienced Senior Engineers who will take the Lead Engineer roles in their technical discipline for the project.

On small projects the Project Engineers may work without further technical support and one of the Project Engineers may also be the Project Associate.

This Core Team is intended to form a consistent framework which enables a larger TGA team to be built around it during the appropriate stages of the developing project. The Core Team will be the visible face of the project encouraging the formation of team spirit within the wider Design and Construction Teams and providing consistent communications between TGA, the Client, the Design Team and the Construction Team.
