Consultation

On behalf of both public and private sector clients, Ardent has successfully coordinated the consultation process. Integrity and transparency are central to our approach.

We involve all stakeholders, from owners to occupiers to members of the general public, and we listen to their views. By taking the time to address every issue and respond to every query, we effectively manage opposition.

In many cases, we have overcome third party concerns by entering into agreements that regulate the ongoing promotion and procurement of the scheme, while at the same time ensuring project delivery.

With extensive experience of complex negotiations, compulsory purchase orders and dispute resolution, we have the skill to anticipate potential conflicts and resolve them before they become an issue.

Ardent has achieved compulsory order powers on all schemes where it has led the consultation process.
