We step into failing projects, find out what's really wrong, and get things back on track. Fast, honest, no jargon.
Think of it like calling a doctor. First we check what's wrong, then we fix it, then we make sure it stays fixed.
In 3 to 5 days, we look at everything — reports, the team, the client — and write you a clear plan that says exactly what's broken and how to fix it.
If you want us to, we step in and run the recovery for 6 to 12 weeks. We have real authority on your project and we get it to a safe, stable place.
Once things are stable, we can stay in the background for a monthly check-in — catching any early warning signs before they become problems again.
These are the most common warning signs. If any of these feel familiar, let's talk.
The same problems appear in every status report — nothing is getting resolved
The team thinks things are fine. The client thinks they're being let down
Nobody is sure who is allowed to make decisions — so nothing gets decided
Deadlines keep slipping and the new dates feel just as uncertain
The budget is running out but the end is not in sight
Every week feels like a crisis — there is no time to think, only react
Three clear products. Fixed fees. No guesswork about what you are paying for.

You do not need to be a big company to have a project in trouble. Most of our clients are small or medium-sized businesses who are good at what they do — but whose project has got away from them.
We serve clients across France and the UK, working in English and French. Whether it's a software build, a construction job, or a financial project — we know what good looks like.
Most project failures have a communication breakdown at their core. The team thinks they're delivering. The client thinks they're being let down. Both are telling the truth as they see it.
— MG Project RecoveryOur goal is never to make you dependent on us. The Recovery Mandate ends with you back in control — running your own project with confidence.
Here is exactly what we do during the first 3–5 days — step by step.
We get clear on what's broken, who it's affecting, when it started, and what happens if nothing changes. No vague answers — just honest, specific facts.
We compare old reports to new ones. If the same problems appear week after week, that tells us everything. The project has a reporting habit — not a problem-solving one.
Just us and them — no delivery team in the room. We ask them to describe the project in their own words. The gap between what they say and what the team says is usually the root of the problem.
Not who is in charge — who actually makes decisions. In a healthy project, every decision has an owner and a deadline. In a failing project, decisions are delayed, shared, and forgotten.
We hear their version of the project. We compare it to the client's. We do not take sides — we look for the gap, because the gap is where the problem lives.
This is our output — a clear document with what's broken, why, and what to do about it. It also becomes the plan for a Recovery Mandate if you choose to go further.
No sales pitch. No commitment. Just an honest conversation about what you're dealing with and whether we can help.
