Case Study: Oxford Brookes University achieves connected project visibility with Method Grid

How Method Grid has enabled visibility for capital project delivery at Oxford Brookes University

Oxford Brookes University, a leading UK modern university with a large, complex estate, faced challenges with visibility and consistency in managing its diverse portfolio of capital projects. Without a proper digital solution, the university struggled with information silos, ineffective resource management, and an inability to apply lessons learned. To address this, they partnered with vendor Method Grid and consulting firm Provelio to find a new way to integrate knowledge and project management activity across their estates.

Method Grid provided an intuitive and visual platform that simplified project portfolio management and enhanced communication between teams. The solution delivered immediate results, including greater visibility over all projects, more effective use of lessons learned, and earlier stakeholder engagement to reduce costly retrofitting. The university now benefits from live information streams, a shared knowledge center, and a consistent process that has increased confidence in strategic decision-making for their long-term estate strategy.
