Collaborative Delivery Model

Structured Collaboration With Leading Firms

We build project-specific partnerships around the requirements of the mandate, combining complementary capabilities without diluting accountability.

How We Engage

A Model Built Around the Mandate

Silverwing works alongside professional services firms, investors, sector specialists, engineering and technical advisors, and other organisations involved in complex transformation mandates. These relationships are not based on a fixed subcontracting model. Depending on the engagement, Silverwing may:

  • Jointly lead the mandate with a global professional services firm
  • Lead the overall transformation program with specialist support
  • Co-lead strategy, governance and execution with an alliance partner
  • Lead the operational and organisational transformation workstreams
  • Support an investor-led value-creation program
  • Provide the majority of the embedded delivery team
  • Participate in board, executive and steering committee governance
  • Integrate technical, financial and operational workstreams through the Phoenix Program

The model is designed around the client outcome, not the organisational boundaries of the participating firms.

Partnership Structures

Four Ways We Structure Collaboration

01

Joint Pursuit and Co-delivery

Silverwing and an alliance partner jointly pursue and deliver a mandate, with responsibilities agreed before the client proposal is finalised.

02

Silverwing-led Transformation

Silverwing leads the overall transformation and engages strategic, technical, financial or regulatory specialists where additional capability is required.

03

Investor and Portfolio Value Creation

Silverwing works with private equity, infrastructure, strategic and institutional investors to assess assets, establish value-creation plans and implement operational improvement after acquisition.
04

Specialist Integration

Silverwing integrates engineering, digital, technical or sector specialists into a broader transformation program governed through the Phoenix Program.
