Risk Management Services
Identify, quantify and mitigate risk to protect your project’s bottom line.
Risk management strengthens commercial outcomes for critical infrastructure and construction projects
Every infrastructure project carries risk, but uncertainty doesn’t have to mean financial exposure.
At Lewis Woolcott, we put commercial clarity at the center of risk management, replacing assumptions with measurable insights to protect your bottom line and drive smarter financial decisions for project managment.

We replace uncertainty with data-driven decisions, partnering with asset owners, project managers, contractors and investors to:
Value risk with precision
Assigning accurate financial values to risk exposure, ensuring project budgets and schedules reflect reality.
Quantify financial exposure
We work with you to quantify delays, cost overruns and procurement bottlenecks, supporting project owners, investors and contractors to proactively manage risk to ensure project success.
Turn data into strategy
By leveraging data-driven risk modelling, trend analysis, and predictive analytics, we transform uncertainty into actionable insights.
Data-informed risk assessments
Replacing subjective opinions with data, using quantative analysis, risk modelling and forecasting to prevent overruns and delays.
Commercial clarity: turning project risk into opportunity
The most successful projects don’t just avoid risk – they control it to their advantage. Our team works alongside clients to develop proactive risk strategies that increase financial resilience, strengthen contract positions, and prevent unexpected losses.
- Contingency planning and risk valuation
We apply quantitative risk modeling to ensure project plans and budgets and related contingencies are financially sound and reflect real-world risks. We help investors, financiers, asset owners, project managers and contractors price risk accurately avoiding costly underestimations. - Schedule risk and recovery analysis
Delays erode profitability. Our schedule risk analysis predicts potential disruptions and offers recovery strategies that optimise program acceleration, minimise damages and improve overall delivery certainty. - Contract and procurement risk advisory
We don’t just identify project risks, we quantify their financial impact and provide clear recommendations to support contract negotiations, cost control and project scheduling.
Data-Driven Decision Making
In today’s complex infrastructure landscape, subjective risk assessments are no longer enough. Investors, developers, and EPC contractors need quantifiable, data-backed insights to make informed decisions, secure funding, and manage project risk with confidence.
At Lewis Woolcott, we harness the power of LWARE Logic+ to provide:
✔ Risk modelling for financial forecasting – Predicting cost exposure and contingency requirements.
✔ Trend analysis – Identifying emerging risks before they impact budgets and schedules.
✔ AI-driven predictive analytics – Optimising supply chain strategies, scheduling and procurement planning.
By integrating cutting-edge technology with expert risk consulting, we help clients de-risk projects, improve scheduling accuracy, and prevent costly delays.
