IAG fulfilled numerous key roles in the critical project start-up phase, including interim Project Director, Transaction Lead, Commercial Lead, Project Manager, Early Works Site Lead and Communications Manager. The team managed preparation of all tender documentation and supported the VHBA project team in the procurement of advisory services (including participation in the tender evaluation process). IAG planned the tender process for the Project including development of a detailed program for the period to Financial Close and establishment of project milestone dates following Financial Close.

Following this phase, IAG was engaged as the Project Initiation Team, comprising the Interim Commercial Lead role among others. IAG successfully performed this role for the Project and was subsequently extended by VHBA (along with the IAG team) to remain on the commercial and legal working group alongside the internally appointed Director Commercial and Legal, until Financial Close.
