Client adviser 

As client advisers, we at COWI are the client's partner. Our aim is to foster and promote the client's interests throughout the whole process, ensuring that the result corresponds to the client’s expectations in terms of time, costs and quality.
We are more than client advisers in the ordinary sense of the term. We are willing to challenge our clients and collaborating partners and believe in encouraging them to join us on the cutting edge when tackling new projects.

COWI's services on behalf of the client aim to provide all-round quality in terms of technology, costs, the environment, energy, form and function.

Expressing new values

In other words, our mission is to contribute more than a guiding hand: it is to carry the client's wishes and visions into effect while also defining and expressing new possibilities and values.

Project management and close dialogue with the client are naturally given high priority; this - in tandem - is the way to go in order to avoid delays and budget overruns. It is also the way to ensure the agreed standards of quality in the completed build or site – whether it is a case of renovation or new build/site.

Tailor-made total consultancy


Our consultancy is characterised by its versatility, in terms of the breadth of its assignments, clients and geography. We are equally on home ground in Denmark and internationally and can offer tailor-made total consultancy services across the board, e.g. within:

  • Cost monitoring
