CgMs is one of the largest independent planning consultancies in London. Working nationally, the company offers a unique and unparalleled range of development and planning services based upon many years of experience in both the private and public sectors. The company prides itself in understanding our clients business and in responding positively to their aims and objectives. We offer up to date advice enabling clients to react to the rapidly changing planning climate. Our services are tailor made for each client and we provide a responsive and flexible approach to instructions. Our clients include national companies, statutory undertakers, smaller niche players, local authorities and government departments.
The complexity of the regulatory framework which surrounds the property industry requires an exceptionally experienced and knowledgeable team capable of thinking latterally and focusing on problem solving. CgMs can provide independent objective advice that is unfettered by any conflict of interest. Our approach identifies the key issues at the outset which ensures resultant savings on cost and time and which maximises the value of property assets.
We balance the often conflicting demand to deliver profitable development whilst addressing conservation, sustainability and the many other issues which impinge on the property development process.
Our main office is based in London with a combined Planning and Heritage Team of over 60 professionals with a wide variety of professional qualifications and a vast collective experience of dealing with all aspects of the development process.
We also have regional offices in Birmingham, Manchester, Cheltenham, Newark, Kettering and Dorset and work UK wide for our diverse client base.
