Broughton Preston
The independent authority when success matters.
Your partner for complex, high value project organisations.

What we do.
We are an independent project consultancy company serving Owners, Delivery Agencies, Tier 1 Consultancies & Operators providing essential methodology and technology capability with specific impartial advisory across complex, high-value projects.

MPDAF
MPDAF (Major Project Delivery Assurance Framework) - a propriety technology comprising an 11-step full-lifecycle framework for major project delivery; integrating the owner with the sponsor, executive management, and practitioner levels with support teams via a framework and methodology, with integrated progressive assurance, and governance control stage gates.
P3MC
We build corporate strategy for digital tools and people in Portfolio, Programme, Project & Controls organisations. We frame how project organisations can continue to build capability and deliver in a world where technology can continuously absorb the expertise of humans and organisations. The aim is not replacement, but different.

The Truth Loop
The Truth Loop tells you what your organisation actually does - not what your dashboard says it knows. Corporate strategy says one thing, the operation tells a different story. Our work gets to the point of delivery so that strategies are delivered, not just voiced.
Customer Voice
Most businesses find out what customers actually think one of three ways - a complaints spike, a social media crisis, or a revenue decline. We surface what customers are actually experiencing before it becomes a retention problem or a crisis.

A control system for major project delivery
Why do major projects fail?Major projects rarely fail because of one isolated issue. They fail when strategy, governance, assurance, delivery disciplines, supply chain, operations, and decision-making do not function as a coherent system.MPDAF™ provides that system — a full lifecycle, systems-based integration model providing full lifecycle control of major projects through better governance and progressive assurance.MPDAF™ integrates strategic need, investment justification, delivery strategy, systems engineering, progressive assurance, governance, integrated planning, supply chain model selection, commissioning, readiness for service, operations review, and benefits realisation.The result is clearer decisions, stronger governance, earlier risk visibility, improved delivery control, and greater confidence that major projects will deliver as intended outcomes.Working independently across government, operators, and Tier 1 consultancies, we bring both strategic and practitioner-level experience to see the full project system objectively — not from within the delivery noise, but across it.To learn more about MPDAF methodology and our systems of agents, follow the link below.

Guided by experience.
"The objective is a repeatable delivery system - yet prior to MPDAF, only 0.5% of projects deliver the trifecta: successful delivery to budget, schedule, with the required quality and benefits."
Broughton Preston changes these statistics.
Our mission is to change these legacy statistics by addressing the root cause of failure — the absence of a coherent full-lifecycle delivery system. Through MPDAF™, owner need, requirements, strategy, governance, assurance, delivery disciplines, the supply chain, and the operator are integrated into a single system of control. This creates alignment from the outset, maintains visibility and accountability through delivery, and enables timely intervention where risk emerges. The result is a repeatable delivery model — capable of consistently achieving better cost, schedule, quality, and benefits realisation.
