Thames Gateway - supporting Europe's largest regeneration programme

Supporting the successful turnaround to Europe's largest regeneration programme

 

The Thames Gateway is a strategically important economic area to the east of London stretching from Canary Wharf and the Olympics site along the Essex and Kent coasts. Its regeneration,facilitated by an investment of £9bn of public money and an anticipated £40bn from the private sector, is one of the UK government’s top programmes.

Following reviews by the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) and National Audit Office, the Communities and Local Government Board identified an urgent need to restore confidence in the programme across government and with delivery partners. A new Thames Gateway executive team was installed to turn around the situation and gain the commitment for successful implementation.

PA Consulting Group (PA) was asked to assist the turnaround because of its track record in transforming programme performance. PA worked with the new executive team to help:

  • verify the overall strategy (and adapt it to reflect the recession)

  • gain a firm grip on the programme’s spend and delivery by strengthening
    its programme management

  • address some critical issues in particular aspects of the programme.

Reviews by the OGC and the Treasury’s Major Projects Review Group in 2009 recognised the successful turnaround in confidence and effectiveness.
