Case Study: Scottish Water halves mobilisation times with VISION Consulting

SSE halves mobilisation time and cuts costs by up to 66% with VISION Consulting

Scottish Water, a public corporation providing water and sewage services in Scotland, faced the immense challenge of accelerating its £4.6bn capital investment program to modernize its infrastructure while simultaneously reducing its non-direct construction costs. The organization needed to achieve significantly more with less, as doubling its staff was not an option. VISION Consulting was engaged to help transform Scottish Water's capital program delivery.

VISION implemented its Commitment-based Management™ program alongside lean construction principles to transform leadership, governance, and collaboration practices. This approach focused on driving out collaboration waste and improving the effectiveness of conversations for action. The results were substantial, with VISION helping Scottish Water achieve project time savings of up to 72% and cost savings of up to 66%, averaging 36% across a series of demonstration projects. These savings freed up people and budget to take on new work, allowing customers to get new and better infrastructure faster.
