STATIONS
Quantum Resolution has provided commercial, contracts and claims consultancy on five of Crossrail’s Elizabeth Line stations from claims recovery and change management through to final-account settlement.
- Bond Street Station (Crossrail) — Contractual, commercial and project-controls consultancy to the Crossrail delivery team after the main works contract came to an end and the remaining works were taken in-house: the novation of Tier 2 subcontracts, day-to-day contract administration, and the agreement of final accounts across lifts and escalators, architectural and M&E fit-out and testing and commissioning.
- Whitechapel Station (Crossrail, Contract C512) — Senior claims and change consultancy on the main station works — a complex build around the live District, Hammersmith & City and London Overground lines — recovering significant cost increases above target cost through forensic change analysis, time-impact assessment and negotiated settlement.
- Farringdon Station (Crossrail, Contract C435) — Part of the commercial team on the main station works, including SCL tunnel extensions and ticket halls, assessing high-value compensation events and interface delays.
- Woolwich Station (Crossrail, Contract C530) — Commercial input on the station fit-out — comprehensive M&E and architectural works across the station and its twin portals — including the valuation of variations and change events through to final account.
- Pudding Mill Lane (Crossrail, Contract C350) — Senior Change Consultant on the new elevated DLR station and Crossrail tunnel portal in Stratford, tracking and managing changes to the contract baseline across a heavily interfaced, programme-critical site.
