Project Management / Contract Administration of National Lottery Heritage Fund Schemes and Heritage Projects

Delivering a successful heritage project requires more than enthusiasm and good intentions. It also needs a steady hand, sound judgement and an intimate understanding of how historic buildings behave. At Trident, we combine hands-on experience and technical expertise with a genuine passion for the buildings we work on, allowing us to guide you through every stage of even the most demanding schemes.

Our team has extensive experience in heritage project management across all sectors. We have led and supported projects ranging from enhancing visitor centres, holiday cottages and public facilities to carefully refurbishing stately homes and historically significant properties. Each project benefits from the breadth and depth of our heritage building consultancy services.

Grant-funded projects, especially those supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and similar bodies, require the involvement of a qualified heritage or conservation specialist. One that will work in tandem with a contract administrator and project manager. You can have confidence that your scheme is being managed by an accredited heritage team that has fulfilled all of these roles on numerous occasions and who understand the regulatory landscape and the practical realities on site.

We can assist with all stages of a project, including initial inspections and development of the project brief, to funding advice and feasibility studies. From there, we manage procurement, supervise on-site works and administer contracts under Joint Contracts Tribunal or other forms appropriate to the scheme. We also provide regular progress reporting and coordinate any necessary third-party and legislative approvals, including listed building consent and conservation area consent.

Whether you are a private owner, charitable trust, local authority or community organisation, please feel free to contact us to explore how you will benefit from our joined-up, dependable service that protects the historic buildings in your care.
