Organisational Health Review (OHR)

OHR1

See where pressure is building - not just where it appears.

A deeper Organisational Health Review for Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors, major developers and complex construction organisations. It connects workforce, management and leadership perspectives to identify where organisational pressure and operational friction may be originating.

At a glance

Who it's for
Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors, major developers and complex construction organisations operating across multiple sites, divisions or project clusters.
What it covers
Workforce, management and leadership perspectives across an agreed organisational boundary - a region, division, project cluster or other defined part of the business.

Scope and investment are confirmed after an initial conversation - not a fixed template.

What the review examines

Three perspectives, triangulated into one picture.

Recurring themes are compared across all three before anything is reported as a finding.

01

Workforce

Anonymous workforce reflection, recurring workforce themes and reported pressure, gathered through accessible opportunities for participation.

Anonymous reflectionRecurring themesParticipation
02

Management

Cross-role perspectives on delivery friction, communication and handover issues, and workload or operational constraints.

Delivery frictionHandoverWorkload
03

Leadership

Strategic priorities, existing reporting and available organisational information, decision-making, visibility, roles and ownership.

Your review journey

Six connected stages, each building on the last.

Progression depends on sufficient evidence, agreed access and the confirmed scope - not a fixed calendar.

01Scope

Agree the purpose and organisational boundary, confirm available information, and establish confidentiality, governance and delivery requirements together.

You help confirm the boundary, participants and available information.

02Listen

Gather workforce, management and leadership perspectives through anonymous reflection and confidential cross-role conversations.

03Examine

Review the agreed systems, processes, leadership, communication and working conditions relevant to the scope.

04Triangulate

Test recurring themes against the evidence, separate patterns from isolated comments, and label anything that remains a hypothesis.

05Prioritise

Turn evidence-supported findings into an organisational pressure map and prioritised, supplier-neutral recommendations.

06Hand over

Present findings in a leadership session, deliver the final OHR report and roadmap, and agree any separately scoped next steps.

What you take away

A clearer view of the pressure - and a prioritised route to act.
