Construction, Manufacturing & Engineering

At Student Consultant, we specialise in providing solutions for the construction, manufacturing and engineering sector.

What we do in this industry

We help construction, manufacturing and engineering companies, including energy and utility companies, to research markets and growth opportunities, make sustainability in the supply chain measurable and steer projects and processes better. From water use in the concrete and steel chain at Heijmans and growth markets for Ballast Nedam Industriebouw to a project dashboard for Cogas.

    Making sustainability in the chain measurable

    Information on, for example, water use is spread across many links and sources in the chain. How do you make it transparent, and useful for decisions?

    What we did: In five steps: sharpening the scope and definition, breaking down the chain, combining sources, working closely with Heijmans and analysing.

    Where are the growth opportunities?

    Traditional markets are becoming more uncertain. Which sectors and regions still offer prospects, and where do you focus your capacity?

    What we did: Desk research and a systematic analysis of market trends, sector developments and regional differences using fixed analytical frameworks.

    Steering projects on more than money

    Progress was mainly tracked using financial data. That gave a distorted picture of how projects were really doing.

    What we did: Project plan, data assessment, dummy dashboard and a first functional version in Power BI.

From our consultants' practice

This project shows clearly what happens when client and consultants really meet each other halfway. By switching quickly, we were able to get to grips with a difficult subject much faster.
