Strategic
consulting for
complex projects
and decisions.

Ficard Consultores delivers high-value advisory across business development, investment strategy, operational excellence, and technically complex project management.

What We Do

Three areas of integrated expertise

Our unique combination of engineering and financial knowledge allows us to deliver results-driven, hands-on service tailored to each client's specific context.

01
Engineering
From structure to completion

Ficard provides senior technical expertise across the full lifecycle of complex engineering projects — from early-stage consultancy through to on-site delivery. Our engineers bring deep international experience across construction, infrastructure, and specialist structures.

Technical Consultancy

Specialist advisory on structural design, construction methods, material selection, and quality assurance — ensuring sound technical decisions at every stage.

Project Management

End-to-end management of complex projects — coordinating design, procurement, contractors and timelines to deliver on scope, budget and quality.

Design & Technical Review

Independent review of engineering designs and construction documentation, identifying risks and optimisation opportunities before they reach site.

Risk & Compliance Management

Systematic identification and mitigation of technical, contractual and regulatory risks — protecting project value and ensuring compliance throughout delivery.

02
Finance | CFOaaS
Senior financial leadership, on demand
What is CFO as a Service?

Growing businesses face increasingly complex financial decisions — but a full-time CFO is a significant commitment, often beyond what a PME needs day-to-day. Ficard's CFOaaS model gives you direct access to senior financial expertise on a flexible, part-time basis: a dedicated partner embedded in your business, without the cost or overhead of a permanent hire.

Senior financial expertise, available when you need it — without adding to your headcount
Strategic guidance on cash flow, risk, and investment — the same quality a large company gets from its CFO
Fully tailored to your business context — no templates, no generic advice

Portfolio Feasibility Analysis

Rigorous financial and technical assessment of real estate opportunities — evaluating viability, returns, and risk before capital is committed.

Development Management

End-to-end management of residential and commercial developments — from planning and design through procurement, construction oversight, and handover.

Operational Oversight

Ongoing management of real estate assets, ensuring operational efficiency, cost control, and sustained performance across the portfolio.
