Cogitare is a young and dynamic niche consultancy that specialises in
optimising infrastructure and operational solutions to reduce costs and
energy consumption while improving performance and revenues.
Our complete system approach is relevant to many industries – from transport
networks to health and utility services, facilities management and building
design.
Cogitare’s Systems Optimisation Process helped London Underground reduce
whole-life system costs by almost £0.5 billion and saved 5 billion kW
hours of energy.
We achieve results like this by:
- Providing detailed whole-life cost-benefit modelling and simulation,
using available
software and our bespoke IT models and solutions. - Partnership working with stakeholders and contractors to agree implementation.
- Improving contractor and staff incentivisation via performance-based contracts, or through knowledge transfer, training, targets and monitoring.
- Value management of the supply chain through our optimization and
modeling process.
