Systech International
Mark Woodward-Smith & Stephen Rayment are joint Group Managing Directors of Systech International which provides responsive, high quality multi-disciplinary services to contractors, supporting them in the delivery of projects on time and to budget.
We are the leading global provider of commercial management, project controls, planning and scheduling, claims, expert witness, dispute resolution, legal and visualization services on construction, infrastructure and energy projects.
Our team of professionals provides services over the full lifespan of projects – from bid to handover – from our 28 offices across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia Pacific and the Americas.
Our commercial managers, project controllers, planners and claims consultants combine with our solicitors and counsel to offer main contractors and subcontractors a complete international project, claims, dispute resolution and legal service from a single business.

Mark Woodard-smith & Stephen Rayment announce that Systech worked on a business turnaround project where A £70M turnover contractor had grown rapidly but without appropriate financial controls and commercial management capability. Liquidity was poor and gearing was 80%.
Systech worked with the company, its bank and auditors to develop and implement a strategic business plan. Company wide commercial systems were established, project specific strategies put in place and staff training programmers delivered.
The company is now operating successfully with profitability restored, liquidity increased and zero gearing.
