What Project Control Pty Ltd does

Project Control Pty Ltd is an Australian project planning and scheduling consultancy founded in 1988 and headquartered in New Lambton, NSW, with a secondary office in St Leonards (Sydney). The firm operates as an outsourced project planning department for enterprise and government clients, providing external planning services that include defining project goals, building and maintaining budgets and schedules, analyzing progress, and recommending corrective actions. Core deliverables span tender-winning high-level programs, detailed construction programs, cashflow forecasting, manpower histograms, earned value analysis, delay analysis, extension of time assessments, and independent program reviews.

The firm's technical capability rests on standard scheduling platforms — Primavera P6, MS Project, PowerProject, Asta Power Project, and Artemis Views — supplemented by @Risk for schedule risk analysis and Synchro for 4D BIM animation. It serves 10 vertical sectors including amusement parks, mining and metals, marine, defence, industrial and commercial real estate, healthcare, heritage refurbishment, education and research, and residential/mixed-use. Marquee engagements include planning support for Universal Studios Japan (Harry Potter World, Super Nintendo World, Jurassic Park refurbishment), Walt Disney's Enchanted Storybook Castle at Shanghai Disney, Glencore's Surat Hydrogen Project, and major Australian hospital and education programs.

Revenue is generated through bespoke, competitive fee proposals on a project-by-project basis rather than subscriptions. The firm relies on a sales-led, enterprise field sales GTM via its website (projectcontrol.com.au), direct email ([email protected]), and phone (+61 407 290 013), with the principal appearing to be the central relationship owner. The team is small (1-10 employees), and international engagements in Japan, China, and New Caledonia are pursued opportunistically alongside the predominantly NSW-based public and private sector client base.

Broad incumbents

• Mott MacDonald Australia: International engineering consultancy with ANZ operations covering advisory, program management, and project controls across transport, water, energy, and built environment. Comparable in delivering owner-side PMO services but at much larger scale and scope.
• Deloitte Australia - Infrastructure & Capital Projects: Big-4 advisory with a Capital Projects practice offering program management, PMO setup, and schedule/cost assurance. Comparable target client base (government health, education, defence, transport) but offered alongside broader consulting services.
• KPMG Australia - Infrastructure Advisory: Big-4 advisory with a dedicated Australian Infrastructure Advisory practice offering PMO, program controls, and project assurance to government and enterprise clients. Comparable in serving NSW government and major capital programs, though delivered within a broader consulting portfolio.
• Arcadis Australia: Global design and consultancy firm offering cost management, project controls, and program management. Comparable in serving large Australian infrastructure and mining clients with a broader portfolio of services than Project Control.
• WSP Australia: Global professional services firm with a large Australian PMO/project controls practice covering transport, property, mining, and defence. Overlaps with Project Control across multiple sectors but offers broader advisory, engineering, and design capability rather than pure specialist planning.

Direct peers

Directly comparable offering to Project Control with a strong track record in entertainment/theme park project controls.

Highly comparable to Project Control in service scope (planning, scheduling, cost control, earned value) and target clients, but operates at vastly greater scale across global capital projects.
